/> Post-Omkara Kareena took off with Shahid for a 3-week holiday to Switzerland and Austria.

She sounds totally rejuvenated. "We were in the Alps and we went skiing. Now we're in Austria. Just visited Vienna. It was an absolutely enriching experience. We're now in Salzburg...

Believe me, this holiday has revived me. We've just been lazing, sitting at cafes, visiting museums, reading up on European history. We went to a Mozart concert a few nights ago in Salzburg. It was unreal! I feel so alive."

Kareena has decided to take one such vacation every year. "It an absolutely delightful voyage of discovery. Shahid and I cooked our own food and walked ten kms every day. It was awesome.

This break was really essential. Travelling can help us actors grow as human-beings and artists, and I don't mean travelling to locations for shooting."

Kareena has decided to visit a couple of countries every year. "Shahid and I've already decided to visit Portugal and Iceland next year."

Shahid too is having a ball. "He's loving it! He's doing all the sport including mountain climbing and we're gorging on all the handmade Swiss and Austrian chocolate. We don't care if we're overweight. We'll get back to Mumbai on the 28th, and then work out. Let us enjoy the last bit of our holiday"

Prod her about Pakistani actress Meera's claim that she got all the applause at a concert in Lodon with Shahid-Kareena, she laughs. "Right now I couldn't less about such things. I'm in Mozart's city. At this moment nothing absolutely nothing can affect me. Now I've to go to another Mozart concert. It's accompanied by a sit-in dinner."
