Dharamshala Travel Guide
Dharmshala is located in Kangra valley at the foothills of Dhauladhar range in Himachal Pradesh. I spent around 4 weeks in Dharmshala and Dharamkot working remotely and exploring places at my own pace. So whenever I got some time I stepped out to see places around – one place at a time.

Best Cafes in Dharamshala
In Dharmshala, Dharmkot, Mcleodganj, and Bhagsu, you’ll find no shortage of cafes with pretty views. Sipping on a hot cup of coffee or tea while gazing at the Dhauladhar range—it’s perfect, isn’t it?

Coliving and Coworking In The Himalayas
Are you bouncing from one fancy hotel to another, or maybe you’re trying to get some work done in a bustling hostel, but something just feels… off. One day, the Wi-Fi is as reliable as a leaky faucet, the next, you’ve got people interrupting you left and right, and don’t even get me started on the hit-or-miss food situation. In any case, getting some office work done? Not happening.
