Have been slow traveling across Bir & McLeodganj for a month and can't recommend it enough Initially, it was hard to overcome my Indian mentality of 'covering' as many places as quickly as possible, but slowing down finally allowed me to relax without being continuously anxious to tick off the next thing I could make deeper connections with people I met, tried all the best food places in the town, understood local culture, watched 14 films at a film festival, caught all the sunsets, and controlled my traveling pace per my own wish. All while managing my work as well Got to travel like a white person and realised how unnecessarily rushed, instead of relaxed, our vacations are as Indians
