Excellent travel guide to Coorg-the Scotland of India

I am very happy to note that my good friend Krishna Kumar aka KK has authored his first travel guide titled, Explore Coorg-the Scotland of India". It is heartening to note that he has listed his book in Amazon.

I have known KK for some years now. He maintains a travel blog called, "Indian Columbus".

His book on Coorg explores every nook and corner of the hill. Since he has personally visited all the places of Coorg, he is able to give first hand information on places to see, where to stay and what to eat. The book has many beautiful pictures of Coorg.

Some of the places in Coorg covered by KK such as Abbi Falls, Tala Cauvery, are familiar to me when I visited Coorg long back. The path to Abby falls is surrounded by coffee plantations.

I remember he planned to start a blog on cameras. I hoe he starts it soon.

I sincerely wish his becomes a best selling travel guide in Amazon.

Resources for your vacation planning.

Even though the holiday season has ended in most of the countries, there is a second holiday for the Indians living in India starting from 13^th January and lasting till 17^th January.

As a freelance holiday consultant, I would say the Indians are the poorest holiday planners in the world. They would assume the entire planning is completed once they book their train tickets (yes, not many fly).

In spite of the wonderful online facilities for any kind of holiday, rarely they are used. Planning your next vacation online doesn’t require big effort but only a basic knowledge of hundreds of resourceful websites. Even a first time user of the Internet can easily and quickly plan his vacation by using basic search terms.

I came across a relevant article recently titled “Planning your next vacation online” and I would say this one article can be used as an excellent tutorial by everyone who lacks ideas to plan his next family vacation.

The article is nicely written citing various online resources for holiday planning.

Some of the resources mentioned in the article:

• Holiday destination search engines
• City search engines
• Finding and using maps of cities and countries
• Weather conditions of the places that one plans to visit
• Purchasing discount flight tickets
• Distance finder
• Intercity transportation like underground train services
• Holiday package offers
• Searching for sails and cruises

Well, isn’t that a complete guide to plan your next vacation?
