New Orleans is world-renowned for its distinct music. The birthplace of Jazz and the home of Mardi Gras makes New Orleans one of the most fun cities to visit in the USA. Creole cuisine, unique dialects, and its annual celebrations and festivals, most notably Mardi Gras. The historic heart of the city is the French Quarter, known for its French and Spanish Creole architecture and vibrant nightlife along Bourbon Street.

Essentially an island between the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain, New Orleans is a city defined and shaped by waterways. Nicknamed the Crescent City because of its quarter-moon shape, New Orleans was isolated from the mainland for close to 250 years.

October 12, 2018 By Asha Shivakumar

London is one of the world’s largest and most exciting cities, offering visitors thousands of things to do, including museums, royal palaces, beautiful parks, historical sites, and world-class theater. With all these options, planning a trip to London can be a bit overwhelming, especially for first time visitors. Here’s a 3 days in London itinerary that will help you see the city’s highlights if you have at least 3 days in London.

Bustling, busy and ever humming with the constant buzz of city life, London is a city which is ever changing and always worth a visit. Here’s your ultimate guide and complete itinerary for spending three days in London. I love London for its newness and oldness squashed together, the tall glass buildings surrounded by old cathedrals and tiny Victorian houses next to towering council blocks. I love Christmas in London when the markets and pubs are full, the lights go up, the church bells sing and a centimetre of sleet can bring the transport system to a standstill. I love the summer time when everyone flocks to the parks and you can sit on the Southbank with a beer, gazing across the Thames. Right now especially, I love autumn in London, the frosty dark mornings and fireworks in the park….

“San Francisco has only one drawback. T’is hard to leave.” – Rudyard Kipling. 3 days in San Francisco is all you need to see everything and you’ll never leave.

The coldest winter I saw is summer in San Francisco, is a popular quote and it is right. San Francisco can get very cold and windy. So plan on wearing layers and comfortable shoes to walk in. The streets are all zig zag, just vertically:-). I am proud to call this my city and I’ve traveled quite a lot, and San Francisco remains one of my favorite cities in the world. For a place that has less than one million people, San Francisco has definitely pushed above its weight in terms of contributions to the world….

The Ultimate 3 days in LA- Food and Travel Diary

July 24, 2018 By Asha Shivakumar

3 days in LA. Los Angeles isn’t the celebrity and paparazzi-filled La-la-land it’s made out to be in the movies and TV. It is, however, a beautiful, diverse and sometimes confounding city. If you’re visiting for the first time, it’s easy to get wrapped up in the gridlock and sprawl and lose sight of what makes Los Angeles such a unique destination.

If you plan on going to Los Angeles, three days is a good time to see all the fun places and experience all the good food LA has to offer. And if exploring is what you are doing, then you definitely need a car to get around. I do not recommend taxis or Ubers unless you are staying within one area, because they can get pricey. LA traffic can be a little bit crazy, so give yourself a good cushion if you have to get to a particular place. Here’s 3 days in LA plan that we did and it’s fun….
