Why the need to blog

I have always refrained from writing or sharing too much. Maybe i felt who would want to listen to me. But these past few days i have questioned myself if it was indeed fair!! I was seeking help from others on a daily basis for innumerable things - reading reviews, finding places, and i was not giving anything in return.

So here i am, willing to share my experiences.

Holiday at "The Hill Fort Kesroli"

Let me begin with the wonderful break we had at "The Hill Fort Kesroli" on the easter weekend. It was a quiet place amidst the fields in a village. It looks worn out from afar but once you go inside its really beautiful. The patio is covered with greenery that welcomes the birds. Around it are the rooms, some simple, others a bit more luxurious. There are some terraces which flaunt the wonderful fields. Most of the fields had grown wheat and the crop/phassal had just been cut. The fields were dry and the farmers were wondering if they should buy water and plant some bajra :) I could just imagine the gorgeous looking sarson ke khet/mustard fields and what a breathtaking view that would be.

We took a walk around the fort in the fields and met lots of children who greeted us with "Hello" and "Hi" - no one wanted to say "namaste" :) We even met Manjeet Khan the camel cart owner who was kind enough to give us a ride when we took a picture of his camel - Shahrukh khan!! :)

We stayed there for 2 days. The room that we stayed in was simple but neat, the food was nice, you could request the chef to make something special for you and he would oblige. The dal-bati was reallllyyy good. The ice-cream was too rich...couldnt eat beyond 2 spoonfuls. Very hospitable and humble staff. A simple, quiet, relaxing holiday.
