Travel Marvel of South India: Vellore

When any South Indian hears the word “Vellore”, he can think of two things immediately – one is Vellore Jail and another is Vellore Fort. Vellore Fort is very popular in South India, as it is very rare to find forts and palaces in South India. Vellore Fort is one of the largest forts among those very few forts of South India.

In my late teens and early 20s I took a backpack and went around the world. I did many adventurous things like run with the bulls in Pomplona, drive in Africa, sleep on trains and on top of buses in India and Nepal , climbed Annapurna, scuba diving with sharks in the Greet Barrier Reef. Upon my return, I asked myself, why are American's not taking six months to a year to explore the world.
Soon after, I became the first person to create the discount RTW airfare model in the U,S, I am responsible

Why We Are Sexier On The Road

We knew travel was a terrific aphrodisiac, we just couldn’t prove it.

And we did short video at TVP, Travel As An Aphrodisiac that makes the poin

Color me still underwhelmed by much of the South Beach dining scene lots of flash, but frankly longer on attitude than substance. Having said that, in recent years things have started to evolve a bit in good ways.
