I was quite excited when a colleague of mine came asking about Bali. She is planning her honeymoon in February and it gave me the perfect opportunity to reminisce about my honeymoon in Bali. Situated eight degrees south of the equator, Bali is the perfect honeymoon destination for the winter wedding season in India. The […]

One Day in Zagreb
‘Zagreb was sort of fantasy. With its endless winter grey, crumbling facades and socialist constructed periphery, Zagreb was everything I imagined when I imagined communism. In Split, the sea and living Roman remains of Diocletian’s Palace are too distracting to think of a single party rule, red stars ans sickles and hammers and well, tanks. Of course you […]
Walking Tours Around Europe
I love the culture of walking tours in Europe. For the longest time, I believed that I was too cool for a guided tour, but sometimes you need someone telling you what you’re looking at. Of course, it get that much more exciting with tit bits of juicy information thrown in and the details of […]
Things to Do in Ibiza … in Off Season
Eey-bee-tha! A place that is synonymous with ‘PAR-TEH!!’ and had been on the top of my ever-ready-to-PAR-TEH-enthu-cutlet Hubby’s dream destinations. While planning our trips, we usually split the destinations between the two of us. We’re responsible for the entire itinerary of those places. There is no way that could have featured on my list! It was completely […]
A few Beaches of South Goa You Shouldn’t Miss
For Viraj and me, a trip to Goa is almost like a pilgrimage trip. We try to visit once a year and pay our respects to the places we love the most. Actually, the love for Goa and the ‘Goa life‘ resonates more deeply with Viraj. He has been going ever so often since he […]

Lazy – Pazy Weekend at Varkala
Oh Varkala… where have you been all this time?? I cannot believe that you were just over three hours away from me.. for almost thirteen years since I’ve been in Bangalore.. and I had absolutely no idea of your existence! A big big thanks to my friends Karishma and Aman (from All Things Trippy) who enticed […]
Bisi Belle Bhaat
Ever since I wrote the post about my Top Comfort Foods in the July #BlogAlong, I have been dyyying to write this post. Writing this post would require me making the dish, which I hadn’t made.. until a few days ago. It couldn’t come at a better time as it is time for the next #BlogAlong, […]
Turkish Textures
This post, in many ways, is a continuation to a post I had done earlier called ‘What do the Walls Say?’ Although the previous post was more a comparative study between the textures and art of Athens and Hong Kong, this post looks at two cities in Turkey – Istanbul and Bodrum. Although both these […]
