Manoj: Tell me about it! Sometimes I feel like I need a vacation from my vacation.
Khushboo: Haha, I totally get that! Speaking of vacations, have you made any plans for the upcoming holidays?
Manoj: Not yet, but I’m thinking of taking a trip somewhere. Maybe a beach getaway or a short hiking expedition. How about you?

Manoj: Absolutely! Nothing beats lounging by the beach with a good book and some chilled drinks.
Khushboo: Totally agree! So, apart from work and vacation plans, what else is new in your life?
Manoj: Well, I’ve been trying to pick up a new hobby. I’ve been thinking of learning to play the guitar. How about you? Any new hobbies or interests?
Khushboo: That’s cool! I’ve been dabbling in painting recently. It’s so therapeutic and a great way to unwind after a hectic day.
