Hello My Allys

It is Tuesday again and here we are marching in full speed towards women’s day which is celebrated throughout the world on the 8th of March. This is a day dedicated to women and empowering them to make sure that they are no less than anyone in this world. This Year, the theme for the day is “Equality for Women, Progress for All.” And so I decided I should evolve this week’s tips around woman and what could help them on their travel journey.

Travelling alone can be a daunting and terrifying task but if you are up for the challenge, accomplishing it will make you even more happy and more confident about your self.

As Exciting as it may sound, it will not always be so you need to get the following things tick marked before you embark upon a solo travel journey.

  1. Research well about the destination you are heading to, places to visit, clothes one should wear in those place. Also, Learning the basics of the language helps a lot – May just Hello, Good Morning, Emergency, Please and so on.
  2. Remember as you are outside avoid drinking too much when you are alone. You need to handle your own self well, when you are alone. Also, when served a drink, always keep an eye on your drink may not be an alcoholic one but still, keep an eye on your glass.
  3. When You sense some danger, don’t afraid to create a scene. In such places, learning basic words definitely helps.
  4. Trust Everyone and No one – This is the golden rule that you should know and understand. It is but obvious when you travel you make a lot of new friends, that’s the exciting part, but you need to understand when to Open up about your thoughts with whom and where.
  5. If you visit crowded places – remember to take care of your belongings that includes the cash, credits cards, (If travelling internationally than your Passports) And don’t keep all your cash at one place.
  6. Optional but this would be add on for your safety carry a pepper spray in a bag or learn martial arts. Up to you what you want to choose between the two or maybe you could select both.

So this Women’s day, take that extra step that will make you feel empowered. If possible, take a day off and explore a place in your in own locality. (It may sound unrealistic as it’s a exactly in the mid of this week. No, worries weekend will definately come soon. In case, you are a guy reading these tips then hey! you should forward this to your female friend circle.

Reis Magos Church, Verem Betim, Goa

Hello My Beautiful Allys,

Hope you all are doing fine. It is Friday or should I say Fri- Yay! It is the time of the week that I look forward to! Not only because we can see the weekend is near, but also because I get to feature one place of my choice in #TravelwithAllycaral 👒#BeingAllycaralFridayFeature 👒 ! Yes… This Week, I thought of featuring a beautiful church, the first in the state of Bardez.

Sounds familiar ? Yes Couple of weeks back I asked you about Which is the first church built in the Bardez Taluka. So here it is… The Reis Magos church. The church is the first church built in the Bardez Taluka way back in 1555. The Name Reis Magos is derived from a Portuguese word which means, “Three Magis” which points towards the Three Wise Men who bought gifts for Baby Jesus when he was born.. Situated in the fortress of the Resi Magos Fort, the church has a pleasant view of the River Mandovi. Earlier looked after by the Franciscans, it has consecrated to St. Jerome. But as the time passed, it grew as a learning centre for priest across the state.

If one takes a closer look at the church, the church has a facade of Portuguese imprints on it and the beautiful outer coat is eye catching. The interiors on the other hand have a wood that depicts the Three Wise Kings giving gift to the baby, Jesus. Every Year, the Church celebrates the Feast of the three kings on 6th January with great pomp and splendor. A huge procession is carried out by the locals to mark the feast.

As one walks near the foot of the steps of the church one can see a small shrine dedicated to Our Lady of Good Hope. Several people devotedly worship and pray for to this shrine.

How to get to Reis Magos Church. ?

BE CAREFUL:
The Best View You can get when you click a photo here is when you stand on the roadside. Be careful of the vehicles then.

TIP OF THE DAY:
Best time to click photo of the church is early mornings.

“Hum Tum Ek Kamare mein bandh ho aur chabi koh jaye” (Hindi Song)

Hello My Allys,

Hope You all are doing fantastic during the last days of February month. I’m sad that this month is ending because this month thought me several things while happy too as I looking forward #March Gracefully this March. On that note, a lil context of the hindi song about, (It meant You and I get Locked in a room and the key gets lost.) No no this week I will not lock you anywhere neither will I steal your key, but this week, I thought  of giving you #BeingAllycaralTuesdaytips  on What one needs to keep in mind while travelling on a long flight and Trust me it is no less than getting locked in a room.

So let’s get started:

1. Pack Your In- Flight Hand Bag Wisely.

The best way to enjoy a long flight depends on how smartly you pack your in- flight hand bag. This Bag, needs to include your travel toiletries like right from your toothbrush to travel size moisturizers. Also, extra pair of clothes is mandatory because long flights get tiring and these things keep you fresh.

2. Wear Comfortable clothes.

Wear something in which you are comfortable for ladies could be a pair of jeggings and loose tank tops or for guys loose comfy tshirts. Avoid something which is too tight and something that sticks to your body. Also, the same with shoes.

3. Drink A lot of Water

Long Flights often dehydrates a person which our body doesn’t get instantly accustomed to change in temperature. Drinking Water keeps you hydrated for entire flight.

4. Get Sleep.

Several People like to stay awake during long flights. Try to Avoid this, You need to get good sleep. So then you land on your holiday destination you be fresh and active.

5. Carry Required Entertainment Material Only.

Flights that carry Passengers for such a long distance travel have a wide range of in built entertainment at your finger click. Right from latest movies, Be it Bollywood, Hollywood or classic Television series You name it and the LCD before you provides you with it. However, if you are a Book Lover then you have limited option which you satisfy yourself only with the in flight magazine. So if you want to carry your favourite novel or book go ahead carry it.

See ya, Until we meet again.
