Outside of managing the company, Ranjeet Reddy Paladugu’s interests include traveling. Europe is a great place for unique travel destinations, which offers a little bit more than a trip to paradise. Denmark and Norway are home to the Faroe Islands and Lofoten Archipelago, respectively. Located between Scotland and Iceland, the Faroe Islands are characterized by rugged coastlines that were once traveled by Viking territory but today offer dramatic landscapes with modern conveniences, such as shopping and dining. If wanting to participate in sporting activities, travel to Lofoten Archipelago where visitors can sail, kayak, rock climb, and hike in the remote Fjords in Norway. Afterward, visit the remote island Manshausen and enjoy staying in glass cabins that sit over the waters. Travel to Wadi Rum in Jordan to experience Bedouin culture by trekking through the desert, which also has an amazing landscape. Adventurers can also explore rock columns, the inspiration of The Seven Pillars of Wisdom (T.E. Lawrence), or take a tour of Bedouin culture via Jeep or camel, which makes for some interesting stories. If looking for a paradise that provides escape from the modern world, consider the Kingdom of Ladakh (India). Ladakh is one of the few untouched, unexplored places in the world. Visitors can take in the fresh mountain air and majestic views, meet local monks and royalty and just relax in the serenity of this pristine destination.
