    This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it!

    Wow, this Oberon appeals to me way more than the one in Mumbai…even though as you mention the style is a bit dated, the whole setting (the garden 😍) is so much warmer and hospitable. It’s a long time ago I visited India, this makes me want to go there! Thank you for the beautiful review 🙏🏼

    I can’t appreciate the bgm choices enough.. while it’s easier to put a generic “Indian” music (that does at most time make my ears bleed because of how low effort they are), I love how the music flows with the general theme (especially for the Taj video and now this).

    Thank for giving India the recognition it deserves, though the street food videos and the chaos of the cities in India has its own charm but the luxury that I always wanted foreigners to know about India has finally been recognized, as a upper middle class and middle class person from India there is a completely different lifestyle we enjoy that not many foreigner explore, I actually booked a hotel in Mumbai on my recent trip on the recommendation of a foreign vlogger and after 15 mins of checking in I left the property and went to another one coz that property was nowhere near liveable, also the hospitality in India is nowhere else to be seen, I always tell everyone wherever I go about the hospitality

    I do wonder if you’ll ever visit Bora Bora and the French Polynesia! I just came back from the Four Seasons Bora Bora and I was amazed. If you ever plan on considering the four seasons bora bora, I highly advice and beg that you book the “Mountain View Room”, we stayed at the lagoon view also but the Mountain View was just mind blowing. Once you enter the room and then walk out to your little terrace, you’ll be blown away by the view, and if you do have the budget, upgrade to the Mountain View with plunge pool!

      Tahiti, the Maldives and the Seychelles are three places that are certainly on my list in the coming years, but simply becuase of the transport costs involved, all three are really deep dives for my kind of fast paced travel. This year, the closest I'll get to Tahiti will be Fiji (not complaining haha). Thanks for watching & the support 🙏
