City Girl Through And Through Like Riding A Fish

When you catch the travel bug, where do your feet, your wallet, and your dreams take you? This is Red Dino documenting her own wanderlust aspirations. Along with certain realisations that will guide her jaunts and escapades!

"Beach or mountain?"
How many times have you been asked this question? Either by a friend, a potential love match, or even a BuzzFeed quiz?
I thought my answer was always true and certain. That is until very very recently.
A string of trips planned and paid for by adult Red Dino brought with them an epiphany. The answer is neither. I'm a city girl through and through.
Don't get me wrong, a visit to a hill station is always welcome, with the condition that the temperature is comfortable enough for this Tropic of Cancer baby. And the occasional beach holiday is grand too provided there are certain amenities and medicines handy for my rash-prone skin. But nothing makes my heart soar as much as walking down busy streets, discovering cafes and restaurants full of people and good music, shops and quirky stores with a side of thrift, and even galleries and museums filled with creations old and new. And yes, even the brazen, boisterous, and bothersome city crowd and city noise are something I welcome with wide arms, an open heart, and an all too willing wallet.
You see I'm a woman of convenience and materials.
I know it sounds sad and unadventurous and even mediocre to some. But when it comes to the actual act of travelling, I prefer to stay within my lane instead of going out of my way.
So until affordable public transport, varied and pocket-friendly eating options, and non-activity-centric days among other things become a staple of the mountains and the beaches, I'm staying a city girl. Through and through.
