Such a great way to start 2017. Congratulations! I love your blog and I am looking forward to reading what you get up to this year! 🙂
Thanks a lot 🙂
wow I bet seeing Dudhsagar falls from the train was a great sight
Sure it was 🙂
I remember Mr. Bean’s Holiday! Mr. Bean was actually the first British show I ever saw as a kid and now I can’t get enough of them!
That is great. I am a big fan.
Congratulations on the award! Maybe there are more to come in 2017!?
Thanks for the wishes 🙂
Congrats on the award! Haha the off season answer got me laughing! But it is true a season with lower cost flights and not that many tourists is a good season. What keeps most bloggers up at night is writing, editing or planning. Risks of the job!
You said it right….known issues of the job.
Congratulations on the Liebster Award .Such a great way to start 2017. Great post 🙂
Thanks a lot 🙂
Congratulations! And awesome to learn a bit more about you too. I’m with you on the Iceland front…that would be my next destination too!
Good luck…will be waiting for you to publish your experience.
Whilst it’s never good to hear that some people are being kept awake by their blogs it is nice to know I am not the only one.
You answers are very interesting especially the fact that you like to stay away from the tourist trail. I think it is one of those things that bloggers especial mention frequently – that they want to stay off the popular routes and that they are not tourists – I travel for my blog as well, frequently, but there are times when I still class myself as a tourist – after all I want to visit the popular sites of a place (the bits that make it famous) if not, surely we are just cutting ourselves off. Likewise, I am a tourist am I not- it is not my home, I am just visiting.
Yes I get that feeling. It is the FOMO that makes us visit the popular places but a huge crowd is a big turn off for me. If possible try to visit these places early so that you get some nice pics. I have anyway made up my mind that in every destination i visit, I will explore atleast one place that I have not read a lot about.
Congratulations!! It’s great when all of your effort gets recognized!
True and thanks
🙂
Congratulations! Glad to see things are moving along well for you! I also love the humor in your answers, haha. Keep blogging and happy travels 🙂
Thanks a lot 🙂 Happy travels
Congrats! Your answers were concise yet quite interesting. I wish you could explain further, for example why Iceland, why Mr. Beans etc. 😀
Well I will leave that to your imagination 😀
I love getting to know other bloggers better through these kind of awards – congrats! I hope you have the chance to live in Iceland some day!
Thanks.
hahaha. I completely agree, blogging and things I need to do for the blog keeps me up at night! I guess it comes with the job lol!
And of course congrats!! It’s always nice to get recognition for something you are working your butt off on! Congrats again :)!!!!!
Ha Ha yea right 😀 Thanks 🙂
Well done. Always good to be able to promote something like this.
Thanks 🙂
Congratulations! Many efforts have been pulled into this! My blog keeps me up at night too
That is great. Thanks 🙂
I hope you get the 1000$ and your dream of Iceland comes true. 🙂
I hope it does 🙂
Congratulations for the Liebster Award! Wow, I would have answered almost the same than you to most of the questions, ha haa
Thanks 😀
Well done! Isn´t it too cold in Iceland to live there all year long?
I don’t know. I will take my chances. I will have the Northern Lights for company. 😛
I love this reward as it is a way to get to know each other! I was nominated about a month ago it was so cool! I like the questions you gave to the fellow bloggers!
