  The Triple-Dip Flight Hack: Promo Codes + Gift Cards + Cashback Cards = Massive Savings Welcome back to The Paradox Blogger's guide to traveling smarter, not harder. In the world of travel hacking, "Double Dipping" used to be the secret weapon of savvy flyers. But what if you could take it a step further? Most travelers think they have to choose between a promo code and a discounted payment method . By following a specific sequence, you can stack a promo code, a discounted gift card, AND a cashback credit card to pull off the ultimate Triple Dip .

It is rightly said “The most important things in life aren’t things”. We are breathing so called extravagant life leaving many possessions behind, just to earn vitality. Surely contentment flashes when we look at the cash credited status in our account but are we really content? Do we feel gratified? Are we so obsessed with making money that we have neglected the substantial joy from our lives? What about the emotions, the respect, the freedom, inclusion and most meaningful LOVE we are worthy of? Certainly you cannot expect all these from people you meet day to day or spend your ample time with at the workplace or anywhere else. Getting captivated to fascinating lifestyle and the urge of earning is something we cannot oversight…True, but we are compromising too much for this. We get distressed and depressed more as the apprehension of losing power and position has beaten down our self-confidence. The surveys done amongst us only proof the growth of dissatisfaction ...

Sea sickness is a myth unless you experience it first hand. You get those luxury boat tickets just to avoid it, yet once the boat starts that moon-walk motion on the water you know it's gonna be a long day at the sea. My head had gone for a spin, I felt completely drained out, it seemed an open deck boat would have been the better option. I was pretending to be excited so that my friends don't tease me for being vulnerable to sea sickness. I couldn't help but notice my fellow passengers on the boat. They came in all sizes and all age groups. Starting from cute infants resting on their mother's lap to the all smiles elderly couples. And there were those honeymoon couples; clingy and cuddly, they were like conjoined twins in those typical "honeymoon" attires. I realized I could have been one of them, with a lovely wife by my side, resting her head on my shoulders while I braved this feeling of dizziness! But when the whole world around me was getting mar...

  It was that momentous day and I was ready for it. I found myself in front of the mirror, keenly analysing my own reflection. No I was not a narcissist. I was more intent on determining how much I had changed. Have I really changed? Have I not been the person I was supposed to be? Before I could answer my own questions, I heard the message tone of my phone. It was she and her message said - "Please try to be on time at least tonight. Else let me know, I will help myself with a cab." I replied back - "That won't be necessary. The cab is here already. Starting now. Be ready." I lifted my luggage and rushed to the cab outside.   Shall we directly go to the airport Sir? asked the driver. "No we have to pick someone on the way and then take us to airport." The driver nodded and the cab was on its way. "Someone"- I just referred to her as "someone". Is that what she will be for me after tonight? Is this truly ...

“Hello. Before you wonder who I am and why did I invade your privacy in this ludicrous manner, I want to tell you that I understand that this is the most uncivilized and discourteous way to start a conversation with some girl you have never known. The worst I could do was to take your phone number without your permission. I mean that is genuinely the worst way to approach a girl. But you have to know I had to send this message, to make my mind guilt free, to proudly reply to my conscience that at least I made an attempt and to win myself a conversation with you. I am sure all this is irrelevant and inconsequential for you but I want to confess that I may have practiced writing this message several times through several days. I might have visited your Facebook profile a few times. And I might have rehearsed a few times on how to cope up with the failure once I don't get any reply from you. But all these hardly diminish the fact that I have utmost respect for you and t...
