Vacation Warning

Friday, May 29th, 2009

                     The Kullu and Parvati valleys have been a dangerous place for the past ttwo decades. Over 10 tourists have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. It is not uncommon to find posters in the area asking for missing people. The most important reason for this being the drugs. It is said that most of these accidents have happend during trekking. Many visitors come here mainly for charas, whose production is high in this area. There have been many killings over this in the past few decades.  The Kullu police are active in eradicating charas production and arresting traffickers. Even if you possess small amount of drug, you will be arrested. So the recommended way of going for trekking in this area is through organised trekking which is much safer. Beware of sudden weather changes. Always let the hotel registers know where you are going.

   There are so many important things we need to follow when to tour a country or city during our vacation. I have already mentioned some of the points in one of my previous posts about this. There are more to add to it. In certain countries people may not be very friendly, in such places please avoid talking to the natives or better do not disturb them. The people from tourist department will surely be able to assist you in getting to know about the place. Avoid spending to much money on transport. There will always be a cheaper means of transport available to all the places. When travelling alone at night, avoid sleeping as your luggage might vanish at the wink of the eye. At many places of interest, entrance fee will be collected for entering the place. The cost will be less for local people and it will be more for tourists. The entrance fee for tourists will be in terms of USD, so carry some $5and $10 currencies will you. You will have to pay extra money for Cameras and handy cams.

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Share Market and Trading has interested many people and there are lots of success stories. After the economic slowdown in August 2008, the stock market is improving steadily.  It is really the best time to invest as the share prices are pretty low and they will increase with time. The share price of Satyam Computers was at 10 cents/share after a major disaster occurred at the company.  The share holders of Satyam thought that they are doomed and started selling their shares. After about a fortnight, the share prices increased to over $1.3/share. People who bought Satyam’s shares when it was 10 cents made huge profit. This is the current scenario; we can make huge profits within short span of time if we know a little more than the basics of trade.

Summer Time

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

                    Summer has always been the favourite season of the year for most of he people. Summer not only means vacation and fun but also has its links with clothing. As the mercury rises in summer, people try different clothes across various brands to beat the heat and at the same time stay trendy. Cotton clothes are the most preferred material to wear during summer. Although it is available at the shopping malls, the crowd there makes it almost impossible to shop during summer. So many online websites sell varieties of clothing for the convenience of their customers. HanksClothing has always been my favourite during summer. From Muck Shoes to jackets, i love shopping them all from HanksClothing. Reasonable price, reliable quality and great offers has made them one of the best in the market.

Ki Gompa

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

 The Ki gompa is the largest gompa in Spiti. It stands majestic at a height of about 4116m. The Ki gompa was built the Ringchen Zangpo, a great Tibetian translator in the 16th century. This gompa plays a huge role  in history. It was invaded three times in the 19th century by the Ladakhis, Sikhs and Dogras. An earthquake in 1975 nearly destroyed the gompa. The ancient “Thangkas” survived all these assaults. Photography is prohibited inside the gompa as it would affect them.
