The Ambassador is only a short walk from Khan Market, which is one of the most upscale markets in Delhi. Here, you can check out indie boutiques and shop for the latest trends at big-brand stores. After your shopping spree, satiate your hunger at some of the best cafes in the city.

If you are planning on checking out famous landmarks, I would also suggest you take the charming 10-minute drive through Lutyens' Delhi to the Rashtrapati Bhawan, which is the official residence of the President of India.

Radisson RED also offers outstanding banquet facilities. I remember attending an event at this hotel, which turned out to be exceptionally good. So, if you are looking to host any kind of celebration or a work convention in the city, you can definitely choose Radisson RED.

Another charming place I recommend you check out on Vagator Beach is Olive Bar and Kitchen. Apart from delectable food, the cafe offers magnificent views of the beach. Even though it was a bit on the expensive side, the view and the music made for a relaxing few hours.

On my last visit to Goa, I stayed in Candolim, which turned out to be a pretty convenient location. The main road, which is lined with chic and budget-friendly cafes, made for an even more pleasant time. Just upon our arrival in Goa, we had dinner at Cafe Jazz, whose live music set the tone for the trip. Before leaving for South Goa for the trip's second leg, we had a hearty breakfast at the Caravela Cafe and Bistro - definitely one of the best meals on the holiday.

Even though it was one of those touristy attractions that I was trying to avoid in Goa, I have to admit that Se Cathedral, along with the Basilica of Bom Jesus, made for some of the most magical photos.

Rain can sometimes be a nuisance, especially on a holiday. But, in this particular instance, the showers made the colours of Fontainhas pop, which took its beauty to another level. Strolling through the lanes of Fontainhas while navigating to the bakery, Confeitaria 31 de Janeiro, was definitely a highlight of the trip for us. And, while you are at this charming bakery, you have to try their orange tart, apart from their traditional Goan desserts.

While Mussoorie is overly crowded and touristy at most times, you can leave behind its jam-packed streets by taking a hike or a small drive to Landour. On the couple of occasions I have been to Mussoorie, the photo walk to Landour was surely one of the best things. If you do visit Landour, don't forget to try the desserts and coffee at Landour Bakehouse.

Other than fine dining restaurants, Noida also has several chic cafes where you can get some of the best coffee and Italian cuisine. Among other cafes, I highly recommend Roastery Coffee House, which also has charming outdoor seating.
