On Jan. 1, Raghav Sikka made a resolution that he would visit a new place in each month of 2020. Three months later, India went into a complete lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and almost a year later, international travel from the country is still restricted.
The 25-year-old engineering student from New Delhi had to forego the white sand beaches and bustling markets of Australia, which he was planning to visit in April. However, even the once-in-a-century pandemic could not lock Sikka down in his house.
In December, after months of staying at home—and tired of doing the dishes—Sikka decided he needed a change of scenery and moved to Sikkim for a staycation. “I am still stuck indoors but now with a comfortable hotel bed, away from the monotony of doing household chores, and the view from my window is everything one could wish for the rollercoaster ride this year has been,” he told Quartz.
