Sitting in a cafe, sipping on coffee, and watching the world slowly whizz by is an underrated bliss for many, and this episode of #TnlAudioStories delves into that forgotten charm. June 16, a cafe in Bir, has long been left deserted, owing to the months-long lockdown. As relaxations start to ease in the mountain, this cafe breathes a new life as some of its favourite customers return to order their usual cuppas.

As night befalls in the streets of the city, a serene calm permeates against the pitter-patter of the rains.

It’s often said that the journey is more important than the destination, and for this episode of #TnlAudioStories, we recount one such enriching adventure from the outskirts of Shimla to Jibhi. Being stranded alone in the mountains – that too when it’s your first time there – is not a rosy situation. The fear of an impending snowstorm only makes it worse. But, as we wait to hit the road again, isn’t it such adrenaline-pumping adventures that make for great travel tales?
4. New Year’s Eve On A Mysterious Island

This episode of #TnlAudioStories dives straight into this treasure trove of memories and relives a New Year’s Eve celebration on the remote islands of Maharashtra. An adventure replete with hiking trails, boating escapades, private islands, and the company of loved ones, this story is the quick pill you need to pick up your phones and plan your next outing.
