With stress levels on an all time-high,  vacationing styles of the glitterati are slowly changing; short holidays seem to be getting more popular

Kamal Sidhu, Model/Actor

I  like taking short drives to places like Alibaug without having to get on a plane and checking in and out twice over. Recently, I travelled to Mahabaleshwar.  It was wonderful going into the absolute wild, and on hills, where there wasn't a soul around. Such a change!

Sameena (his wife) and I make sure that we recharge our batteries by taking weekend vacations regularly. We take off for Lonavala, Mahabaleshwar and Alibaug regularly. We also have a house in Pune which we holiday in from time to time.

I go to nearby spots like Khandala, Kashid or Panchgani at least once a month. This is besides the regular three-week vacation that I take overseas every year.  It was only after travelling abroad that I discovered the desire to vacation at nearby spots in India.

Taking two and three day vacations is my idea of a great time. Goa and Thailand are my favourite spots.  Rajasthan and Kerala are also great for short trips.
