A Journey of memorable smiles April 11, 2016 Sorry folks, but this is not a high quality shot, but the memories around it are truly treasured and precious. It was taken on an iPhone, like most of my pictures are. I was using an older version of iPhone, with a not very high-grade camera. My older daughter captured this moment from our surreal boat ride, on the majestic Vembanad lake, Komarakom, Kerela. The Vembanad lake looks more like a…
placid River This picture was shot on my iPhone camera, at the Dandeli sanctuary, Karnataka, India. The serene, River Kaali enveloped us in a surreal calm. All our worries, from our city life just vanished into the thin, fresh air. We sat there spell-bound, soaking in the bliss and silence of the “River Placid”. I’ve posted this picture before on my blog, but felt this was such an apt #wordlesswednesday picture that it had to appearyet again. #WordlessWednesday Apologies…

SOLO SUNSETS I need to share the back story of this #WordlessWednesday post by getting wordy. 🙂 And I would not have it any other way, so pardon me. This picture has a very special place in my heart, as it was shot on my first solo trip. On my first evening in Goa, I hopped across to Thalassa, the café on the hillock of the Vagator beach; to watch that surreal sunset many had spoken about. I know…

E is for Enchantment School re-opens tomorrow after a fifteen day long spring break. There is a certain sense of enchantment and glee in the nine-year-old’s eyes. She has labelled her books neatly, without any help from Momma. After all she is a grown up girl now, almost nearing ten. Her excitement and enchantment is more than palpable, and it spills into every corner of our home. She has begun to count hours now, before it’s time to go to…
ONE WITH THE SKY This was taken last Sunday on a hike to the rugged, semi-bare; yet awe-inspiringly calm Aravalli forests. The placidness of the dusty path, a sole partridge running for cover, a splash of clouds wooing the azure sky, and two people close to my heart sharing some unique moments; left some indelible imprints. Footnote: It’s uncanny my post title reads as “One with The Sky”, given the fact that Esha who blogs at The Sky Girl and I…
I spent all of last week in the pristine lap of the Havelock, in the Anadaman & Nicobar Islands; away from choking habitation and non-stop hum-drum of the city life. This vacation was a welcome respite from Wi-Fi and phone connectivity, cradled in the arms of nature, sun, sea, sand and occasional downpours. We were staying at Barefoot Resorts, one of world’s best Eco-friendly resorts. Barefoot lies nestled between the Radhanagar beach and a thicket of over 70-80 feet…
Aloha! I wrote this post during my travels but due to poor connectivity was unable to post it. Do pardon the tardiness. I’m now back from my break and will be returning to my regular blogging schedule. Journey Down Memory Lane: #AtoZ Challenge Reflections 2017 5 April, 2017, Morjim beach, Goa, India I’m cooling my heels at Morjim’s black, sandy beach, Pinacolada on one side and a plate overflowing with the fresh morning catch of jumbo fried Pomfret, salad and some fries…
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….
