Learn to prioritise LIFE ~ A Personal Memoir from GOA
I could not have asked for a better sunset or better company, on this trip to Goa! Time froze right here. Undoubtedly, life has a zillion shades. Maybe, this is what is called ‘perfect’.

Photo Blog Series on Lake Tahoe – California
Never have I experienced a more magical sunset than that evening at Lake Tahoe in California. Lake Tahoe is a large freshwater lake in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, straddling the border of California and Nevada. It’s popularly known for its beaches and ski resorts. It was an impromptu road trip to Tahoe from San Francisco, last winter. We quickly packed our bags on an early Saturday morning, booked a cosy accommodation at the Red Wolf Lakeside Lodge on Groupon (on-the-fly) and hit the roads. With small pit-stops for food and refreshments, we made it to Lake Tahoe by afternoon. Wish I could exactly describe how I felt, on that first…

Top Indian Restaurants in Austin – Texas, USA
Even though I am not a huge fan of Indian food outside India (it just does not taste authentic), I still have this knack of checking out the Indian restaurants outside the country. Perhaps, it is my faint hope, which silently keeps nudging me to find out an authentic taste of India abroad. So, when I arrived in Austin (capital city of Texas – USA), it was a natural tendency for me to look for a nice and warm Indian restaurant, just to welcome myself in a new country in some way! Being in a new city with no acquaintances, I tried looking for options over the internet. And the…

Interesting Facts About GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE
Golden Gate Bridge – Ranked #1 in any travel-list for California – This beauty first caught my attention in a song ‘Chunari Chunari’ from a 1999 Hindi Movie – Biwi No.1. I was hardly 10 years old back then and couldn’t quite look beyond the vivacious Sushmita Sen and the handsome Salman Khan. But amidst all this innocence, that image of a bright orange suspension bridge in the background, remained in my memories. However cheesy this might sound, but this was my first impression on the Golden Gate Bridge. I simply had no idea about what its name was or where it was. Nevertheless, that gigantic bridge at its vibrant…

The grandeur of Chhath Puja at Dhanbad
Since the ‘Garib Rath’ direct route from Bhubaneswar to Dhanbad has been cancelled now (courtesy – the Jharia CoalField fires), we had to first take a train to Kolkata and then run for our lives to board another train to Dhanbad from a different railway platform.

Travelling for the second-time after marriage to my husband’s city, was already giving me goosebumps. Once we reached the Dhanbad railway station, we decided to take an auto-rickshaw to…
