Tips: Prevention and Checks Before Booking Any Hotel



Today we are living in internet era and most of the things are possible online whether buying phone or travel ticket or booking hotel. Here I would like to share some tips related to the precautions before booking any hotel online. This is a thing which in reality makes much convenience before going any place for travel, business or official purpose. But as cons a bad hospitality or hotel service could also spoil our trip and money both.

Here I have some good and bad experiences with online hotel bookings and would like to share some tips before booking any hotel online. I will not say by following all these tips you could get definitely a best trip, but I could assure you that there are very less chances to be scammed and get a bad deal.

If you can get any review from your any real life colleague or friend, for any known hotel by him, then get it first before any kind of online booking. Ask him about the services, quality of services and also the price , they had been charged during their visit. This will help you in deciding for the booking.
•If you are going to book any hotel online, check on google about the hotel reviews using its name. You can also go to expedia.com or agoda.com or like these websites for getting the original reviews by the genuine guests stayed there. This will help you a lot for decision making.
•If you are not getting any review online for any hotel. There is a risk of bad service also, but this is not sure, they can also provide good value for money. Only risk is high for you there.
•Do not trust on testimonials or reviews on hotel websites for taking your decisions. They are managed by hotel staffs. Only trusted third party’s reviews must be considered.
•Compare prices also with other hotels on well known websites for your selected hotel and if you get a good deal only then book this for you. 
•Initially you can book for lesser days if you are suspicious and then could extend that later.
•You can call also hotel staff for the quality of services and their response will also indicate your many things and the quality of services they could provide you.

I hope these tips could help you somewhat while you are making any travelling plan. Some initial prevention can make your journey full of joy. Happy Journey.

Why Cows are worshiped in India?


India is a country of diversity and different kind of customs. Those customs and ways of living are seen usual by people living here but some foreigners see this with different perspective and sometime this is ridiculous for them. This is very natural and psychological, when we don’t know the depth of anything we could behave like this even we laugh on some foreign customs too.
Though I have initiated a very small topic here but it could clear the confusion of many people. It has big meaning in life of people here in India. Question is again left here, why cows are worshiped in India. 



India is a country of different religions and it is very surprising that they have become so much compatible with each other except some exceptional case. Those exceptions are obvious for the country with population of more than 1.2 billion. In India the Hinduism is the largest religion and more than 75% people here are Hindu. And in Hindu mythology the cow is considered an animal to be worshiped. And even some other animals also, all those have different reasons but there is a hidden positive agenda behind this.

Today there are laws implemented to prevent the hunting of tigers but even after that this is not hundred percent successful, but that is a way of prevention. The same kind of things is here with cows also. In early life when man was in habit of hunting and eating, there are multi options and he did not used to think that what would be the effect of this in future. If we take the example of cow, it could provide meat once but milk for its life time and some other usage also. Hindu scholars did notice this and modified the books accordingly to prevent these animals from unnecessary hunting and put this in religious law, which used to be followed strictly by the followers. This was a good way to control and if we see the example, even today the cow meat in prohibited in Hindus. 

This is a smaller example, beside this there are many good things, like worshipping trees, food, animals, nature and all. This will teach people to value those things which are given to us by nature and to care and not waste them. This is a very pure and good way to control and teach people about the value of the nature. I think if we go in depth of this, we would never laugh and salute the ideas of those scholars. 

How to Prevent from Online Scams



World is connected now in better way than ever before by the medium of internet. There are number of different applications we are using today and even very much dependant on internet. Being online is the daily activity of most of the people. But like any place this is like a world also where people like us exist virtually and many corporations and business entities are using this opportunities to grow their businesses. On the other hand , there are also some culprits, who wants to take the advantage of this. These are some kind of online goons who are involved in the category of bad people who just make people fool and try to run their illegal business.

I would like to share some simple tips with people who are not much aware about these kinds of frauds.
• There is a famous fraud these days named as Nigerian frauds sometime. In this kind of scam, you will receive a mail or even SMS on your phone indicating that you have won any kind of lottery of million dollars and you will need to provide some details related to you. If you respond, they will ask your account details and will ask for money as a tax payable. The mail is sent in thousands and some of them become victims. So do not respond these kind of mails or sms and if possible then inform to local authority.
• There are many website who claims to provide you opportunity to earn online, and for this they charge registration fee. You must not consider these kind of websites at all.
• There are many website who ask you to click on ads and claims to provide you a good amount like readbud, but in reality there is no payment even if you reach to the minimum payouts.
• Do not trust on the testimonials of these kind of websites, most of them are written by their own people and could mislead people.


There are number of newer ways these goons are getting to scam and we need to be cautious more here online than our real life. Hope these tips could help you somewhat.
