Himachal Pradesh

Himachal Pradesh may have been my favorite state that I visited in India. We took a day trip from Chandigarh all the way to Shimla, driving the entire day and stopping at small towns along the way, like Chail and Kufri, to have some chai and admire the sights.

Driving through the winding roads, high up in the hills, felt like a little escape from the chaos of this country. Perhaps it was because it reminded me a bit of Canada, but I found there was something so peaceful about Himachal. The air smelled of fresh flowers and pine trees, and the weather was cool and crisp in the evening. Perhaps I'll just stay- now you know where to find me.
