{X} is for Xenia, The Flower Girl: #AtoZChallenge

{X} is for Xenia, The Flower Girl Xenia, the flower girl lives on a hillock, by the lush, bountiful Swiss countryside with her family; a hard-working husband, Zeus and two-year-old twins, Daisy and Daffodil. Her home is brimming with hospitality. Every weary traveller or passer-by is welcome, to stop by for a simple, warm meal, cooked with love by Xenia.

{O} is for One With Nature: #AtoZChallenge

{O} is for One With Nature We are beings of Mother Earth and as much part of nature as the trees, the nodding poinsettias that sway to the rhythm of the gentle breeze, or the mammoth mountains that stand tall and the regally flowing rivers. But how often do we consider adapting ourselves the way nature does? Do we flow downstream like the brook by the countryside. Or do we insist on flowing against the tide? Do we learn to…

Divine Dusk: #WordlessWednesday 63

Divine Dusk: #WORDLESSWEDNESDAY   A divine dusk at Radhanagar beach, Havelock, Andaman and Nicobar islands is all that we needed to complete our vacation goals. This after we had returned from another surreal scuba expedition. The light was perfect, the birds were off to their home, and so were our brethren travellers who were making their way back to their respective hotels, after a relaxed day of soaking up the pristine goodness of this enchanting land.  #WordlessWednesday 63 Here’s how…

{F} is for Far From the Maddening Crowd: #AtoZChallenge

{F} is for Far From the Maddening Crowd How often do you escape: far from the maddening crowd? To a silent spot, devoid of the humdrum and break neck scramble of the city life. Maybe when you take off for one of those precious vacations. Or upon waking up early morning for that walk or jog, or a cycling jaunt, like I do. Well, these moments of sublime quiet are way too valuable, given the busyness we have inundate ourselves…

The Jungle Ride : #FridayFictioneers

The Jungle Ride : #FridayFictioneers

  The sun was dipping into the horizon, leaving behind streaks of burnt orange as the grey, candy flossed clouds tried hard to camouflage them. Al and I had decided to go for a quick drive to the Aravalli hills, that lazily lay sprawled around our urban jungle. We were hoping to spot some peacocks, jackals, or nilgais, as they headed into the hilly jungles, after a day’s feasting. Our SUV rumbled along the hilly terrain. Al suddenly braked hard,…

Life is a Cycle #MondayMusings

Life is a Cycle #MondayMusings

My weekends are getting busier and more interesting. On Sundays I go for a long ride with my Life is a Cycle buddies. Ours is a band of crazy and avid cyclists who not just cycle for the thrill of cycling, but to engage in silly banter, gorge on the various lip-smacking street food and sip on the milky roadside chai that awakens ones spirits, all while engaging in this fun sport and fitness regime.

#ThursdayTreeLove 15: Towering Treasures

        These palms are ancient, and as beautiful as can be. They are lined across the drive-way of the Vice-Chancellor’s abode in Pantnagar University. When the sun sets across the horizon, they seem to gleefully spread their stunning fronds and bid it a joyous adieu; till they meet again next morning. A truly spectacular sight to behold. The mighty palms are a sweet reminder to keep our life state towering, come rain or shine. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ This post…
