The traveller in me can't help but wish that I had explored more. If only I had taken the last minute trip to Meghalaya to watch the blue lagoon, I'd be over the moon! I did unlock a number of travel milestones, but in this world that's so big and beautiful, no amount of travelling is enough. So for 2020, to keep my travels more streamlined, I've shortlisted 7 unique experiences in India

1.Stay in an igloo-Sethan village-Manali

Saying that Sethan village gets blanketed in snow during winter is nothing but a massive understatement. The village receives more than 7ft of snowfall which has led to the creation of an Igloo village where travellers can experience living in a real Igloo! Now there's no need to spend a fortune to visit Norway since you can get the igloo experience just an overnight bus ride away!

The moon-lake situated in Spiti Valley may be a challenge to reach, but once you're there, there's much more than just its enchanting landscape to marvel at. Legend has it that the lake is home to fairies who tend to steal things for every visitor to Chandrataal. Apart from this, there have been numerous reports of people spotting a space-ship-like object hovering over the mountains surrounding the lake.

Staying in a tree-house is everyone's childhood dream, and this dream finds fruition in reality at The Hidden Burrow in Jibhi. Book a room in the tree-house and cozy it up as you sip on a mug of hot chocolate and watch snow flakes descend slowly to cover everything in a blanket of white.
