Errors: wrong verb tense and word order: 'where I have been grew up' mixes perfect and past — use simple past 'where I grew up'. 'I have been acclimated to' is awkward; use 'I am accustomed to' or 'I have become accustomed to'. 'those kind of lifestyle' has number disagreement — use 'that kind of lifestyle' or 'those kinds of lifestyles'. Connector 'I so' is incorrect order; use 'so' before clause. 'hilly station' incorrect collocation; correct is 'hill station'. 'Himalaya' should be 'the Himalayas' and preceded by 'a place like'. Suggestion: use simple past for upbringing, use 'accustomed to', correct determiners and noun forms, and fix word order for conjunctions.
