R is for Reflections By Resplendent Kali 20 September 2016, Dandeli, Karnataka, India The DH and I took a memorable sojourn to the Western Ghats, in Karnataka last year. It was monsoons and the weather was wet; and nature was at its lush best. (This is before we drove down to Goa through the wondrous Western Ghats. You could read about our Goa adventures at Gobsmacked in Goa.) Dandeli has a fascinating forest cover in the midst of which lies the River Kali….

Q is for Quintessential Cafe 2014 and beyond, Nirvana Courtyard, Nirvana Country, Gurugram, NCR, India, We all have our cosy nook don’t we? A place away from home that we sometimes like to get away to and unwind. Well, I have mine right next door, in my neighbourhood. It’s my go-to-place when I’m bogged down with home management, need a solitary break, or want to write or work – away from the confines of my home (basically a change in…

O is for Opal Sunsets and Ochre Sunrise Timeless Classics, Around the Earth till infinity I LOVE sunsets and sunrises. Well who doesn’t? They leave me spell-bound, contemplative and grateful. Opal sunsets and Ochre sunrises transport me to a world beyond the scheduled grind of life. Though they come and go each day, yes that too as per routine; but each sunset and sunrise is distinctively different from the other. Every time I lay my eyes on the transiting colours of…

N is for Nebulous Adventure of the Night 15 April, 2017, Bah, Chambal, District Agra, Uttar Pradesh This was possibly the most adventurous Easter weekend I’ve ever had. We just returned this evening and I look back incredulously and marvel at the arm loads of memories I have carried back, of my rendezvous with the different creatures of the wild. That too in a matter two days! Something I’ve never witnessed in my entire life. These beautiful beasts of the wild…

K is for Kitschy Trip to Kasauli March 2015 Imagine you are undertaking a meandering journey to the mountains; all excited, hopeful and with that sparkle of anticipation in your eyes. Away from the busyness and monotony of life in the plains. As your MPV starts making that climb uphill, you literally clutch your heart in excitement, in prescience (apparently) of what the climb ahead holds. Life will be peaking with joy during the next 5 days of your holiday…

I believe that each day we travel in our own little ways through…
