Karma Lakelands- Much More than a Golf Resort
My daughter Chhavi and I recently went for a staycation at Karma Lakelands at Sector 80, Gurgaon. We were invited to the resort! The map picked up multiple locations for Karma Lakelands.

I visited Chhattisgarh (not at the mela but the actual state) in January and I came back quite impressed. I decided to…
