As the New Year beckons right around the corner, it’s time to think about that age-old tradition: making resolutions. We seem to make resolutions that fall, broadly speaking, into two categories. There are those which sound good when you tell everyone else about it at the New Year party but which, we know, will miserably fail on execution (I’ll volunteer at the local charity, I’ll lose 10 kg in a month, I’ll find a cure for cancer and so on…) The second category is the one which is actually close to our heart, but we are scared of saying those resolutions out loud because we know that putting them in words will make them real living things; and we are not sure if we are ready for such a drastic change.
For me, travelling falls in that second bucket. So, this year, let’s make a resolution we will actually want to keep: Travel more. Because there are 196 countries in the world, waiting to be discovered.
If, like me, you are looking for some inspiration on where to go in the next year, the experts here at MakeMyTrip have worked on an exhaustive list to come up with one ideal destination for every month of 2016. Our great team of travel experts researched about under-the-radar and emerging destinations (as well as the popular ones!), kept an eye on the weather and the local festivals of each month, and called on the travel gods to get the final list. The final tally includes popular destinations like Phuket and Alleppey, but also rare gems like Prague and Hikkaduwa.
To check out the complete list and the top things to do at these destinations, visit our Best Places to Visit 2016 story!
As always, we would love to hear from you. Share with us your travel wish list for the next year in the comments below!
Travel solo, travel with friends, travel with kids. Travel in 2016, because Dil Toh Roaming Hai.
