    Vacations where you can unplug and truly enjoy serenity are getting more and more popularInstagram/Sasha Tacker


    The best vacations are the ones when time slows down and you are in no rush to go anywhere or even conversate! Sometimes we just need a little non-verbal rejuvenation time. This is why it makes sense that Pinterest has recently seen a 40-50% rise in people searching for quiet vacation spots! Words such as ‘Village life’, ‘Island life’, and ‘Cabin in the mountains’, have been trending on Pinterest and we get it! With so much of our lives spent on talking to the people around us, whether that’s at work or even with our dearest, closest family members, sometimes you just want time away from the chatter. As we all know, American singer-songwriter SZA recently posted about being on a vow of silence and retreat here in India.


    It seems quiet or calm locations are the new and upcoming vacation requirements for many right now. So, if you and your bae are also on the lookout for travel locations where you can chill and enjoy the serenity around you, we’ve got you! Here’s a list of some great quietcation destinations for you to check out so that you can unplug and relax in every sense.

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
