The mountain kingdom of Bhutan is all about its splendid natural beauty, gross national happiness, amazing landscape and rich cultural heritage.

It is true, a trip to Bhutan is incomplete without taking a hike up to view one of the mountain kingdom’s most dramatic monuments, the Taktsang Goemba, more commonly referred to as the Tiger’s Nest. Built on a sheer cliff face at a height of 2,950m (9,678ft), the views that this climb offers are absolutely spectacular!

A box of spices is a staple in all Indian homes and is every chef/housewife’s most prized possession! The right mix and quantity of these spices in any kind of food enhances its flavours and transforms a dish into a culinary masterpiece.

When in India, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bhutan, flex your culinary muscles and indulge in an exclusive cooking class with a local master chef or housewife. Head to the local market to pick up some fresh organic produce before, cooking up a storm together. Be prepared to dive straight into a food coma afterwards!
