December is also known as the month of holidays. Many people plan some travel trip during this month and enjoy their life. Travelling has alwsys been a favorite choices for people. They enjoy life and wanted to make the coming new year far more better with some fabulous celebration in their dream destination and making lifetime moments.
Check out at some of the travel location of India, like, Goa, Shimla, Kashmir or any other tourist spot you will find number of tourist buzzing the places. Infact at some location the plans were made way in advance a little delay will cost you more or even you will unable to find a good accommodation of your choice. It leave one either to adjust or to postpone to some other time. It is not wrong to say that December and January are the tourist season in India.

Tourist Season
Making plans at last minute is alwsys make a big hole in pocket, so the plans were alwsys made in advance and it require a lot of planning. So the best thing one can do is to avoid making travel plans during the tourist season. In my opinion, the tourist season makes the destination overcrowded, and a person unable to make most of the time. Also, it is always a smart thing not to plan anything in Winters because it will adds up some extra clothing in your luggage.
The best place in winter is to stay at home and enjoy. I personally believe that if a person really wanted to make most of the travels then they must plan in Off tourist season. It has multiple benefit, while you will get some handsome deal with accommodation and simultaneously you will enjoy your time in exploring the place most effectively. With no crowds to spoil your moods and moments.
Off Tourist Season
I did my part with travelling for this year and there is no plan to travel further till the weather gets little better. I mean when winter is at its end. In 2023 I made upto few places and really enjoyed each of the moments spent there. I have been to beaches, I have been to mountain and also at some pilgrimage location and few other historical places. The perfect time for travelling in India is at the time of season change. I.e. Feb to April when *the summer sets in and again between September to November when the winter season starts in India. These 6 months are perfect for travelling at any location and at many places the weather is too pleasant to make most the travelling experience far better with many beautiful memories.

Enough for this year
Travelling is all about fun, enjoying life and making moments and unwinding yourself. Unless and untill you don't get a good breather, how could those things can be possible. India is huge county with many travel places to explore and everything comes down the weather condition to explore the places. Summers get unbearable, while winter makes it difficult for various reason, fog, crowds, etc. On top of that rainy days are never been suitable for any travelling. I love travelling, exploring new places, the local cuisines, the culture, the people and above that unwinding myself. Every year I travel to a new places just because:
“Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.” - Dalai Lama
Traveling to new places is a wonderful way to gain compassion for others. You will never know what you learn about yourself along the way. Be it a new neighborhood in your hometown or an adventure halfway around the world, or at any places exploring them adds a new dimension to life. And this made me to go on a travel to a new place during the year. And I prefer there Off season time for many reason. Especially, to get away with crowd and spend some quite time with myself at a new place.
As 2023 comes to an end, there is no more travel plan as of now untill, we see a further season change in coming days and hit the road for another adventure in life. Next year is all set to add some fabulous places in my travel list. As I enjoy exploring more than anything.
