I always thought Udupi was a temple town. Turns out it gave me one of the most relaxing beach weekends I’ve had in Karnataka. ✓ Friday night bus from Bengaluru ✓ Saturday at Kodi Beach + Mangrove Kayaking ✓ Sunday at St. Mary’s Island + Malpe Beach ✓ Back in Bengaluru before work on Monday Approximate cost per person: 🚌 Bus: ₹1,500 one way 🛶 Mangrove kayaking: ₹300 🚕 Local transport: ₹500 per person in 2 days 🏕️ Stay: Depends on the property and season Saturday: 📍 Stayed near Kodi Beach with direct sea access 📍 Surf boards provided by the host 📍 Peaceful beach with very few crowds 📍 1.5 hours kayaking through the mangrove forest near Kodi Beach Tip: Go early morning or after lunch. Midday can get very hot. Sunday: 📍 Malpe Beach 📍 St. Mary’s Island (don’t miss this) The boat ride takes around 30 minutes and the volcanic rock formations are unlike anything I’ve seen near Bengaluru. 2 hours on the island is enough. Carry water. After returning to Malpe, enjoy the beach or try the water sports like Goa Before heading back, don’t miss lunch at : 🍽️ Thimmappa Fish Hotel One thing I liked about Udupi: It felt peaceful. No rush. No pressure. Just beaches, seafood and slow evenings and lots of fun. If you’re from Udupi, what else should I add to my next trip

@monetgrowth No , it’s per month 20k

@HeyItsMegha Even Scapia card also spend 20k /quatar for lounge

It seems like airport lounge access is getting tougher every year. So I have been using the HDFC Diners Privilege credit card for a while, and today I just noticed the spend requirement has increased to ₹60,000 in a calendar quarter to get the lounge vouchers. That’s a good amount of jump from the earlier criteria. For someone who travels a few times a year, this makes it much harder to qualify. What mid-range credit card are you using for airport lounge access these days? Not looking for premium cards with high annual fees or or spending limit, just something that offers decent value.

@Cricrathin Take care.. it looks like upper Assam impacted heavily 😟

Rain continues. And it is flooding every where here.

@credofly @Tanmay_Br Ah sorry my bad .. then it’s same .

@HeyItsMegha @Tanmay_Br 20k per month.

@Tanmay_Br Thanks .. 20k per quarter is far better than ₹60000

@HeyItsMegha Since you travel so much, here's my link: Get Scapia Lounge access on just 20K spends a month. apply.scapia.cards/landing_page?r….

@lalitgrateful Oh okay .. yeah yeah I am chill only .. I am just a well wisher .. recently saw so many accounts getting suspended so just scared haha 😛 @45_akki

@lalitgrateful I thinks it’s fake that is why the account is suspended and by this logic you are also sharing fake info 👀 .. better delete this

I know this is very rare, but this guy earned almost 11 lakhs because one of his tweets went viral here on X

@im_lohi Bangalore/ Coimbatore 🧐

After a series of delays, finally we got a BP, heading off from the town.. Guess where am I heading ?? It’s popularly for back bay…

@im_lohi Yes Sai .. he doesn’t have any other options 😛

@HeyItsMegha Supportive partner 👏

I asked my husband to clean this fan today since it’s Sunday and we’re both home. I wasn’t expecting this level of transformation. ❤️👏 BEFORE AFTAR

@mahesh39749522 No re.. I do . I do watch him working 😛

@HeyItsMegha And you wont do anything

@travelduniya1 Yeah it’s not good for occasional flyers 😟

@HeyItsMegha HDFC has indeed tightened lounge perks—₹60k/quarter is a notable jump, pushing many toward alternatives for occasional flyers.

@gharkekalesh Bhabhi, be like me 😛 x.com/heyitsmegha/st…

The wife alleges that her husband takes the AC remote to the office with him so that she cannot use the AC during the day, all in an effort to save electricity😭💀??

@PessiVaraprasad We were sitting far and didn’t want to go again and again.. so got everything in one go 😛

@HeyItsMegha then why that bun in meals 🙄

@PessiVaraprasad No no 😛

@HeyItsMegha vada pav?

@Subhraa_in Yes that has stopped long back actually.. I think i have to directly pay to the lounge now lol that would be still better than spending 60k unnecessary unless you have something important to spend

@HeyItsMegha There will be less people now. I used to have sbi cashback cc but that also has stopped now.

@ccg33k Interesting. So now they’re tracking monthly spends too? Feels like they might introduce monthly milestones or some new conditions soon.

HDFC is now tracking monthly spends for Infinia, not just annual spends. That's a new addition, groundwork for monthly milestones, perhaps? What do you think, #ccgeeks? Interesting time ahead for Infinia holders. 😉

@iNikhilsaini Oh uncle,, This is so irresponsible. One biker at the wrong time and this could have been a major accident. People need to understand that roads are not their personal dustbin.

Throws a vodka bottle straight onto a running road and then says, I thought the road was empty.Even if it was, does that mean glass can’t hurt anyone? One biker at the wrong moment and this could’ve turned fatal.This littering mentality is beyond disgusting now. Action should be taken !

@timesofindia This is so heartbreaking. A gold medallist at 23… and he felt like a failure just because he couldn’t get a government job. The pressure on our youth is unreal. We really need to change this mindset that only a govt job equals success.

A 23-year-old #BTech gold medallist, who had unsuccessfully attempted to secure a govt job around 50 times, allegedly died by suicide at his rented house in #Gujaini under Govind Nagar police station limits on Friday. In a heartbreaking suicide note, he repeatedly apologised to his father, writing, "Sorry Papa, I tried for a govt job 50 times, but I could not succeed. Please forgive me."

@yeaynay If this is not fake then it’s really useful tip. I will test this out
