1. Karan Singh Grover My Recommendations: “Zurich has really fresh air, so do make use of it and do all the outdoor activities you possibly can—walking, hiking, paragliding... You can even take a speedboat and take in the views. There’s a lot to do there, so make sure you spend as little time indoors as you can. There are many other sight-seeing options, too—the architecture, the way they’ve built the city, the small lanes lined with shops, the markets, etc, are all gorgeous! Must. Visit. For. Sure.”

My Recent Favourite Zurich, Switzerland THE BACKSTORY “I had to be in Zurich for a shoot, so it was kind of pre-decided for me. But I’m glad it happened, I loved it. It’s a beautiful country. And while the shoot was a lot of fun, too, what made the place even more special is that they have the longest days in the world, which was great for me, because I love being out in the sun!”

Pro Tip “Late September to early October is a good time to visit. Be prepared for any kind of weather, though, due to all the climate change that’s happening. When we went, it was, surprisingly, very, very hot; almost 39 degrees...the same weather as Mumbai!”

2. Arjan Bajwa My Recommendations: “I’m training to be a pilot and fly as a hobby. So one of my favourite things to do in SF is go to the Livermore airport and fly around. If you’re passionate about planes too, do go there. The Livermore Outlets is also a great place to shop. The area is also home to some great vineyards, so you can enjoy wining and dining. Other than that, do visit the Bay Bridge: it’s an engineering marvel; visit Pier 39 marina for its liveliness, abuzz with performances, 3-D rides, eating joints etc; watch an NFL game; take a tour of the Alcatraz jails; if you’re an outdoorsy person, trek to the Twin Peaks and see the city spread out like a carpet below you; if you want to party, Santana Row is your place. One spot that not too many people know about is the intersection of Haight and Ashbury streets: this is where the hippie movement originated. Do visit this neigHbourhood and soak in the vibe.”

Do Try “Peet’s Coffee! You can’t go to San Francisco and not have it. Also, clam chowder at Pier 39. It’s amazing!”

My Recent Favourite San Francisco, USA THE BACKSTORY “San Fran has always been a special place—I have a lot of family and friends there, and I visit it often, but each time I go, it’s a new experience. Bay Area and Tri Valley are my favourite places to chill at when there. The best part is the weather: so inviting, all year round!”

3. Aayush Sharma My Recommendations: “St. Moritz is a small town with all the best amenities. And anywhere you look, the scenery is breathtaking! My most favourite thing was to go up the mountains and ski. But what few people know is that it also has some amazing restaurants! Do visit the Badrutt’s Palace Hotel, it has many cuisines on offer, and some really nice lounges.”

Pro Tip “Visit between December to February, that’s the best time to go there. And stay warm throughout—at night it goes as low -20 degrees; but even during the day, don’t be fooled by the sunlight—it’ll still be freezing. Also, don’t take too many warm clothes—the place has a number of handy options that you can source from, so go there and pick up thermals and other stuff.”to go there.”

4. Prateik Babbar My Recommendations: “Eat, eat, and eat again...then eat some more, till you can’t move. I’m serious. That was literally my favourite thing to do there. Do try the food market in Abbot Kinney Boulevard and Egg Slut at Broadway. You gotta keep walking around and exploring the city till you find your own unique places. When not eating, ride a bicycle across Venice Beach and Santa Monica; make a pit stop and crush a workout at Muscle Beach; oh yeah, rent a super car, and go for a private yacht party. There’s a little bit of everything for everybody!”

My Recent Favourite Los Angeles, USA THE BACKSTORY “This was my first holiday after Sanya [Sagar] and I got married earlier this year, as well as the first time I was travelling to LA. But what made it even more special was that Sanya became my tour guide...she’s been there before, and she took me to all the hot joints. Thanks to her, it was an absolute party!”

Why I Chose It “After we got married, I got really busy with work, shooting for multiple projects for almost a year. And then, suddenly, I had three weeks off until my next shoot. That was it—I grabbed the opportunity and booked Sanya and myself on our first holiday as husband and wife.”
