Actor Shruti Seth shares memories from her honeymoon trip to NYC, Miami and Orlando



Actor Shruti Seth recently went for a lavish three-week long honeymoon, with hubby Danish, to New York, Miami and Orlando. A hardcore U2 fan, Shruti even saw them perform for the first time. "It was like fulfilling a lifelong dream of watching our favourite band U2 play live in Miami," says Shruti.

The couple got married in October last year. However the honeymoon was put on hold as both Shruti and Danish were tied up with work. "But it was blessing in disguise. It gave us the opportunity to do what we'd always planned on doing to celebrate our wedding — watch our absolute favourite band in the world (U2) play live, which they happened to be doing in America."

"New York was all about walking, eating awesome food (Brazilian, Argentinian, French, Korean, the list goes on), walking, movies, Cirque du Soliel and did I mention, walking? I think we wore out two pairs of shoes each in two weeks, but if there's any way to explore New York, it's on foot," says Shruti. The couple stayed at a friend's place in New York before they moved on to their next stop — Miami. "Compared to NYC, Miami was a lot more laid back. It's a lot warmer too." This leg consisted mainly partying in the famous Miami club, getting tanned on Hollywood Beach and some sumptuous food from all over the world. "The selection of cuisine plays a very important part in all our holidays."
Next in line was Orlando, the theme park capital of the world. "We spent the first day in Disney World and the next in the new Universal Park named Islands of Adventure. It was a complete blast, to put it mildly," she recalls.

The high point of Shruti's trip was marked by New York, Disney World, the Islands of Adventure in Orlando and of course U2. "Watching U2 in Miami was amazing! Euphemistically speaking, this was probably the single-most spiritual experience of our collective lives. Seeing 75,000 people sing in one voice and jump as one person tends to do that to you."
Though the honeymoon was long overdue (it was almost a year after they got married), neither Shruti nor Danish have any regrets about it. Afterall, they had the time of their life as they shopped, walked, enjoyed thre local flavour and of course, watched U2 play. Exhausted, exhilarated and elevated, the couple returned to Mumbai, bringing with them memories to cherish forever.
