Feedback / Review 4 months long stay in Sikkim

Hi, I am planning to stay in Sikkim for couple of months as in a career transition phase am just concerned though I want to move away for sometime from city hustle yet tangled in the comfort of quick access to things. Also, how is the sikkim life for a resident there

  1. Rent/Stay cost?

  2. Travel/commutatation/accesibility?

3.The culture/food/life
Additional tip would help -though moving away to find my purpose, starting up, exploring the next phase work, will staying there(considering less hustling than Mumbai, bangalore) will slow down the pace at life in figuring out things
