About me

Hi! I am Shweta, the zest of this blog :-).

I have always been passionate about travel and immersing in new experiences. Having been to over 40 countries, the idea behind this blog is to bring family-friendly itineraries and tips, destinations, and luxury stays to the readers. My belief is that family travel needn’t be boring and one can do a mix of local culture & food, adventure activities and relaxation, all with family.

I am exploring cycling 🚴‍♀️ with friends I am exploring cycling 🚴‍♀️ with friends to get some outdoor exercise done in the new normal. And I would love to start a series on how I have managed to combine some adventure on family trips. . . This #familytravel to #jaisalmer many years ago was one such amazing combo - family fun, cycling, sand boarding, sightseeing. Although no trip to Jaisalmer is complete without the spectacular Jaisalmer Fort or the havelis in the city, and we covered those during our trip, here is a peak to beyond the main city. . . I have selected a few of my favourite shots from #badabagh, a royal 👑 cenotaph and the expansive #thardesert. Don’t miss the windmills in the end. . . So, how are you thinking of travel - add some outdoor fun? . . #zestinatote #travelwithkids #familytimes #familyblog #familyblogger #womenwhoexplore #traveltogether #kidstravel #travelkids #indiantraveller #indiantravelblogger #indianmoms #travelmama #outdoorfamilies #Showthemtheworld #ActiveFamily #FamilyAdventure #gofurther #indiagram #storiesofindia #indiaclicks #rajasthantourism #rajasthantrip #jaisalmerdiaries #indiatravels #indiatrip
Travel with your kids. Make them appreciate new ex Travel with your kids. Make them appreciate new experiences. Make them understand that your culture, food, way of thinking is not the only way. Travel with your kids and see them bloom into open-minded global citizens. . . This chipmunk turned 9 this week. We have mostly been on trips in and around her bday, with June being also the school holiday month. With the current trip to UK being cancelled, cake 🍰 and pasta 🍝 with family is all that was possible amidst the pandemic. But need to keep perspective, gratitude that we have our health and friends and family. . . #throwback to an amazing bday celebration at @sixsensescondao. Con Dao islands is a hidden gem that few international travelers to #vietnam🇻🇳 go to. . . . #zestinatote #condaoisland #familytravel #travelwithkids #exploringtheworld #familytimes #familyblog #familyblogger #traveltogether #kidstravel #travelkids #takethekids #indiantraveller #indiantravelblogger #indianmoms #travelmama #outdoorfamilies #luxurytravel #Showthemtheworld #ActiveFamily #FamilyAdventure #gofurther #vietnam #saigonstyle #visitvietnam #ig_vietnam #vscovietnam #igvietnam
Devalia nature reserve lies within Gir national pa Devalia nature reserve lies within Gir national park area, it offers a bus tour to see lions 🦁 in a smaller area as against trying your luck on a safari in #girnationalpark. Though I would take the morning safari in a forest - even without a big cat sighting - something about the smell and sight of a forest. My daughter was delighted with the lions snoozing and chilling out here! . . Nature reserves and forests offer vast expanses, I can imagine heading there within India definitely in the Oct-April season. What about you? Where you would like your first trip to be? . . #zestinatote #throwbacktuesday #indiatravels #familytravel #travelwithkids #familytimes #familyblog #familyblogger #traveltogether #kidstravel #travelkids #indiantraveller #indiantravelblogger #indianmoms #travelmama #outdoorfamilies #Showthemtheworld #ActiveFamily #FamilyAdventure #gofurther #naturephoto #rsa_rural #natureaddict #nature_wizards #naturediversity #instanaturelover #nature_prefection #indiatrip #indiatravel
Part 2 of #italylove, within my #throwback🔙 fam Part 2 of #italylove, within my #throwback🔙 family travel series. . . Our trip to amalfi coast was the perfect antidote to the hectic itinerary in the stunning Italian cities. The idea at amalfi coast was to practice La Dolce Far Niente or the ‘sweetness of doing nothing’. . . Swipe for the panoramic shots of #capriitaly (highly recommend taking a boat around the island), ambling through #positanoitaly, wandering around #amalfi town, and a visit to bohemian #ravelloitaly. . . . #zestinatote #familytravel #travelwithkids #familytimes #familyblog #familyblogger #traveltogether #kidstravel #travelkids #indiantraveller #indiantravelblogger #indianmoms #travelmama #outdoorfamilies #luxurytravel #Showthemtheworld #ActiveFamily #FamilyAdventure #gofurther #ig_italy #instaitaly #igersitaly #loves_italia #gf_italy
“Italy is a dream that keeps returning for the r “Italy is a dream that keeps returning for the rest of your life.” – Anna Akhmatova . . So true! Although my family and I love to explore new destinations, Italy would be worth going back to. Shots from our family trip when the chipmunk turned 5 years old. . . One part of our trip was taking in the arts, architecture, food and history in the cities of Rome, Florence and Venice. It is quite a lot to take in one go, so one has to go back. And we got just a glimpse of the Tuscan countryside and the serenity it offers. . . The first 3 shots cover the magnificent Colosseum, Forum and the Palatine Hill. Unmissable if you are visiting Rome. The next 2 cover the beautiful Duomo and it’s bell tower in Florence - a city so steeped in arts and culture that ambling around is akin to strolling through a museum. A quick visit to San Gimignano and Sienna in the next 2 shots. And finally, the beauty that is Venice. . . #zestinatote #familytravel #travelwithkids #familytimes #familyblog #familyblogger #traveltogether #kidstravel #travelkids #indiantraveller #indiantravelblogger #indianmoms #travelmama #outdoorfamilies #luxurytravel #Showthemtheworld #ActiveFamily #FamilyAdventure #gofurther #ig_italy #instaitaly #igersitaly #loves_italia #gf_italy #vscoitalia #romeitaly🇮🇹 #florenceitaly #sangimignanoitaly #veniceitaly #architecturephotography
Continuing with the #throwback family travel serie Continuing with the #throwback family travel series, the summer was spent in different parts of Europe mostly on work. So we got the time to do a #roadtrip in #srilanka🇱🇰 in November that year. . . #lanka offered more than just spectacular #sunsets. From wildlife in national parks to the stunning #sigiriyarock, from beaches in sleepy towns like #tangalle to ambling on the ramparts of #galle fortress - Sri Lanka was a wonderful family trip. . . Also the year my daughter learnt to pose for the camera 📸 😂. Swipe to see! . . #zestinatote #visitsrilanka #travelmama #familytimes #gofurther #familyblog #naturediversity #outdoorfamilies #naturephoto #ActiveFamily #FamilyAdventure #familytravel #landscape_captures #Showthemtheworld #takethekids #travelwithkids #indianmoms #indiantravelblogger #indiantraveller #travelkids #natureaddict #traveltogether
