This last weekend a bunch of friends & I decided to take one of those 52 weekend getaway breaks to Matheran & I would highly recommend it to North-Indian folks in town....To imagine that I've stayed here for 8 months and not taken a weekend break to this picture pretty hill-station which is all of 1:30 hrs away...
Its the perfect country living meets the thick woods for the sloths & the no-cars, no mall road meets the treks for the enthusiasts...
We started off & the car 'allegedly' starting giving trouble in Thane... just for a fraction of a second I thought, "There goes the weekend holiday..." but its impossible to go wrong with your A team...
What I find awesome about this bunch of folks is how stress-free they make your holiday... so finally there is no agenda/crisis quota for the day... Its ok to pack your trekking equipment & not go for a trek... Its ok if you need to change your room half-way through the holiday... Its ok to go to Echo point if you planned to go to Sunset point coz. your legs are hurting ... Its even ok if you realize that you forgot to pick up the keys when you reach the car-park some 4.5 kms away from the resort...
And you know its not one-sided when you're already debating if the Hill Fort, Kesroli would be a better option than Glasshouse, Rishikesh...
PS: Its not ok to take work calls near the lake & its all on camera
