Food for the Soul: Go
solo and treat yourself with some “ME” time
In our ever-changing lives, filled with people and materialistic things, we
often get so mixed up with so many personalities and need a constant fix of
ourselves. No other person can tell you what you want like you can. Travelling
solo can be challenging but also puts you out of your comfort zone and is a fantastic
way to find yourself- mind soul and body fully in sync. So get your bike or car
out and just drive away. If you don’t have one, there’ always the option of
getting a self
drive car. If you’ve got just weekends, spending
time alone can be fun in other ways than travel too.
Here are some amazing solo activities you can do in and around Bangalore. This
year, meet a new you and make new friends along the way!
1. Take a long
drive
For those who love driving, they know what a long drive with some favourite
music can do to the soul. Life is good, and nothing can make your mood better
like music can. While people love drowning in their thoughts over a coffee or a
book or block them altogether by binge-watching shows and tv, giving your
thoughts and feelings time to sync with you is a great effort towards being
happier as well as self-aware. One of the best drives you can take is an early
morning drive to Nandi Hills Give this a shot!
2. Camping and Trekking
tours
Luckily,
the options from Bangalore are plenty if this is something that excites you.
Wayanad, Chikmagalur, Coorg, Ooty are all hill stations and amazing places to
go camping and trekking at. What can be more therapeutic than a book, great coffee
amidst the hills, their scenic views and chilly weather? That’s a lot more than
you can ask for. You can drive yourself to these places directly for camping
and trekking tours that are organised or directly go with the groups that leave
from Bangalore by bus/train according to the itinerary.
3. Stand Up Comedy Shows, Plays and
Movies
The best thing about stand-up comedy shows, plays or movies is that you are in
your zone and connecting to somebody on stage or on the screen to see new
perspectives. It’s a great way to rewind and get out of your brain. When you
can laugh by yourself, trust me you’re already halfway down the road to being
comfortable in your own company.
4. Food and Wine Tours
Bangalore
has so many places to try that you’ll lose track of what all places were on
your to-do list when you first arrived here. Try a new place each weekend,
experience the thrill of learning about different wines and exploring
vineyards.
