Travel bug bites me again and this time it was the calling of the jungle…We (Me, My husband and mom) set off to Jim Corbett to leave our footprints behind. Stayed at a lovely resort called JIM’S JUNGLE RETREAT- A beautiful resort in the wilds which was only a barbed wire away from the dense Corbett forest.
The warmth of the people at the resort, gorgeous food & prompt service lifted our holiday spirit. Tastefully designed interiors was inviting and refreshing too.
Our day started early with an adventurous jungle safari…Open jeep, friendly driver LuvKush, biting cold wind on our face…as we headed out for a bumpy ride to Jhirna and Bijrani.. Not lucky enough to experience tiger sighting..we were happy to hear interesting tales from Majid and Jas (JJR staff)about Bhola- the lazy tiger and his acts. Scrumptious meals served with jungle stories and chirpy sparrows flying over our shoulder gave us the sense of being close to the wilderness…
Being far away from the grind of the city life with no mobile connectivity for two days was a good detox for us…we spent hours chatting, lazying, spending time with no agenda … …loved every bit of these two days of my life…I was myself and loved being far away from the stress and spending every moment soaking in fresh air , listening to the birds and the beasts of the jungle, sipping lemonade by the pool, having a nice chatty evening in the machaan, having an early morning cuppa of ginger tea all by myself, looking at the birds and lying on the lazy chair.
This was one of my best holidays till date ...
Lots of love (with less sugar for a calorie free lifestyle)
