Tis the season of snow and wonders !! ☃❄

-


It's just pure magic experiencing snowfall for the first time this season, a moment I’ll treasure my whole life. What a gift from mother nature ! 💙


Perfect way to say " Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow! " ❅❅

I am found sitting on a chair with elbows pressed on the window sills, watching the beautiful snow fall and often writing here (on my laptop) thinking about the previous winter memories and experiences.


I feel even when it's freezing outside, our Memories keep us warm...

Living in a mild climate for almost two decades in past and with our recent move to colder place was quite a huge change for us especially during winter. We faced our first winter last year with lots and lots of snowfall. Hoping to see the similar situation this winter too. 



There is always something magical about winter especially indulging with Christmas followed by New year, going to malls or outlets to watch Christmas/new year decorations or shopping, spending cozy hours sipping hot chocolate or hot tea binge watching Netflix or Amazon Prime or Disney+ and spending time with friends and family that I can’t seem to get enough of, the more I enjoy winter. 

Winter season holidays for us in past years were all about vacationing to different places for few days either to snow places ( like Pacific west coast states like Oregon, Washington or Lake Tahoe in California) or beaches (like Florida) or mild cold places (like Nevada or California) or tropical places (like Hawaii or India). 


I love to go to cold places for vacations but I don’t ski. I just go there to experience the snowfall and playing in snow. Sometimes I’d like to be transported to a beach places too where the ocean is warm like my Florida and California trips.


Here are the Links of the places I visited in California and Florida. Do check it out..

Ok that's it for now...Hope you all are enjoying the holidays season even if its just staying at home curled up in your couch and resting. I guess we all deserve break from our hectic schedules. 

Stay Safe and Have fun exploring the Blog, Until my next article …..👋

Best wishes to you this holiday Season !!! 🧧

As you may know, I enjoy taking time to browse through my photo albums to relive the memories of my past travels. Recently, I came across pictures from my trip to Hershey's Chocolate World of Pennsylvania in 2018, and it was truly a remarkable experience. The trip was filled with excitement and wonder as I explored the world of chocolate and indulged in delicious treats.  Wow & wow! This store is like a dream come true for me! The place is enormous and filled with all kinds of Hershey's candies. They also have 3-D movie and historical Trolley ride which is a must-see. The selection is immense and the atmosphere inside is joyous, colorful, and fun. As soon as I walked in, I started smiling because I love Chocolates, I was so impressed with its history too. The prices for rides or candies were good. As i said before, we can experience all the rides for fun, and the best part is that we will get sample chocolate on all the rides as a compliment.  The "Make Your Own Choco
