i work as a manager in an it company (joined jan 2026). a few friends at the same level in different fields mentioned that the company usually organises an international trip for managers every year. i got really excited, but this year it didn’t happen for some reason.

i didn’t want to drop the idea, so i decided to plan an international trip myself with friends who work in different it companies. after a lot of discussion we settled on a two-week vietnam group tour covering sapa, halong bay, hoi an and phu quoc.

we’re now looking for the best vietnam group tour packages from india. we’ve checked quite a few providers but are still confused about which ones are reliable and give good value for money.

if anyone has done a similar group trip to vietnam recently (especially covering these places), please share your experience and any operator recommendations. what went well, what to watch out for, and which companies you’d actually book with again?

thanks!

My husband birthday is coming up next month, and I was thinking of getting him a riding jacket as a 🎁 gift.

​

He is really into motorcycle rides and usually goes on weekend rides with his friends. The thing is, I don't know much about riding gear, so I'm a bit confused about what to look for. I want something that's comfortable, safe, and can be used for both city rides and occasional highway trips.

For those who ride regularly, what riding jacket would you recommend? Also, are there any features I should specifically look for or avoid?

Thinking of upgrading from normal sneakers because on longer rides my feet get tired and honestly I want better protection too. Mostly city commuting with occasional weekend highway rides, so I don’t need hardcore racing boots.

Need something comfortable enough for walking around as well because I usually wear the same shoes at work/college. Ventilation would be nice too since summers are brutal right now :sob:

Been checking brands like Raida, Clan, Orazo, TVS riding shoes and a few from Solace. Some look stylish but not sure how they actually feel in real use.
