Ah! Finally, I am writing about my trip to Kumbhalgarh. It was a family trip. We were 14 people who went Kumbhalgarh together. Among all, I was the most excited one for the trip, the reason was, I was getting a chance to go out of Ahmedabad after almost 2 years! Yes… Two Years and I know it’s a long time to stay at home and not going out at all. I was pregnant and then for one year, I was at home only with my kid. However, we decided during pregnancy time only that we will take a trip; once our would enter toddler age!
So in March we started searching for a place to go. We had a few things in our mind and on the basis of that only, we supposed to decide the destination.
- Because Khushansh (my son) is just one year old, we did not want to take long Bus/Train Journey. We wanted to go to a place through a self drive by road such that we can take breaks as and when required.
- We were firm; Not To Overspend. We were 4 families together and per family, out budget was not more than 20K.
- We wanted to visit a place which is not much commercialized at the same time it must have natural beauty. We did not want to visit a place which is man made, It has to be nature’s made place.
- We wanted to visit a place which has not been visited by any of us in the past.
- We wanted to visit one place only at a time. Means not covering 2-3 places/cities at a time. We wanted to visit a place and enjoy it thoroughly for 3-4 days.
So these were 5 needs/things we wanted to follow mutually. After searching online, we finally found the place which fulfills our criteria, Which is near to nature, not much commercialized, can be reached through a road trip and last but most important thing A Beautiful Destination On A Budget. – “kumbhalgarh”
