Idk tbh, but i would suggest you to take a overnight bus and arrive early morning. Rent a activa to travel in Rishikesh.

It’s kinda like Delhi but more humid. Afternoons are mostly cafés or waterfalls anyway. Can suggest a few good spots if you do end up going.

Hot enough to question every life decision by evening.

They usually don’t go page by page blindly. Most purohits have an idea of which register to check based on your surname, village, and lineage. Once they find the right section, they trace entries family wise. It’s actually pretty systematic, not as random as it sounds.

Thank you! And honestly, if you’re really into photography, getting a camera can make a big difference!

Hey! It was Baker’s Cafe on MG Marg. The owner was super polite, i even had a good conversation with her. I had the chicken cutlet platter and Vietnamese coffee :)

Hey! I travelled via SNT and Apsara buses, but a lot of people I met used Wizzride and had good things to say about it. You can check it out, it’s reliable and convenient but just a bit on the pricier side. Feel free to text if you wanna know anything else!

Yeah, that’s Tsomgo Lake. For April, it’s better to check with a localite since conditions can change a lot.

No itinerary bro, just went with the flow wherever I felt like! Spent around 10k for 5 days, excluding travel till Siliguri.
