Taking a break from the mundane and traveling is important to gain a fresh perspective and rejuvenate oneself, says actress Simaran Kaur. Kaur, who is known for her work in the Indian television industry, believes in taking multiple vacations a year to destress and gain new insights.
In a recent interview, Kaur spoke about the importance of taking vacations and shared her personal experiences of traveling. “I agree that it is difficult to find time for vacation, but I believe it is necessary to take at least two vacations a year. It is the much-needed break to re-energize, gain a fresh perspective, relax and destress ourselves. Vacation is the time to appreciate the beauty of the world and, in my opinion, what is the point of working so hard if you can’t take a break and enjoy yourself,” she says.
Kaur, who has traveled to various destinations, talked about her last vacation, which was to Goa, India. “Last year, I went to Goa with my friends and family for almost a week. It was my birthday, and it was really special. We went to the beach, we had a lot of fun while doing water sports, we stayed at an amazing property, the food was amazing. I embraced the Susegad Spirit and let my hair loose.”

She also mentioned her trip to a hill station for three days, which was a much-needed break. “The hills were so beautiful, and the place we stayed was also amazing,” she added.
While Kaur has traveled with friends and family, she expressed her desire to take a solo trip as well. “I have not traveled solo, but someday I would love to do so. I guess a solo journey is important to discover oneself. Talking about my dream destinations, one is Vienna, Austria. It is just breathtakingly beautiful. The city is wonderful, the architecture is marvelous, it is laid back yet serene. The second is Gulmarg Kashmir. I have been to Kashmir twice. It is still my favorite holiday destination in the world. The snow-capped mountains, the beautiful chinar trees, the lakes. It really is heaven on earth,” she said.
Kaur’s views on the importance of travel are supported by scientific research. According to a study published in the Journal of Travel Research, travel can have a positive impact on one’s mental health, leading to reduced stress levels, improved mood, and increased happiness. Additionally, travel allows individuals to gain new experiences, broaden their horizons, and develop a new perspective on life.
Taking a break and traveling can be a great way to destress and gain new insights. As Simaran Kaur says, “Vacation is the time to appreciate the beauty of the world, and what is the point of working so hard if you can’t take a break and enjoy yourself.” So, plan that next vacation and reap the benefits of travel!
