Tuk-tuk calling!
This guy’s going to be getting a lot of calls for sure. Meet Samson, an auto driver from Chennai, who has his own website, and incredibly (yes, yes!) also turns on the meter! When I think Chennai and auto driver, my mind wanders to a journey we undertook a few years ago — my sister and I. […]
Of gastronomy, gluttony and much gladness
It was a different experience in Mumbai this time around – we played tourists to the hilt. When you live in a city, I think you tend to miss a lot of things – fine details you don’t really notice as you rush about your daily work. Like that lovely Church behind Fort where I worked for a year or so – why had I never seen it? The beautiful old heritage buildings in Kalaghoda and Fort – never looked at them closely before. I had little time to stand and stare back then.
Another year, another journey!
It’s become a bit of a tradition for me. Even if I don’t update the blog as frequently as I should, I make sure I do an end of the year post :-) It’s that time of the year after all! The time to look back, relive good memories, learn from the bad ones and move […]
Tour of the Nilgiris: Day 1 and 2
On Day 1, we made it from Bangalore to Mysore via the National Highway. It wasn’t the most pleasant stretch in terms of traffic, but I was just glad that I could get this part over with. With trucks and other high speed vehicles all moving at break neck speeds and honking continuously, it’s not really conducive to cyclists. But after lunch on the road, we reached our destination — the comfortable Hotel Regaalis and even got some time to take in some sightseeing in the evening.
The year in which…
~ I join a new company ~ Acquire a brand new home and… ~ Tie the knot! There’s only that much excitement a girl can handle in 365 days! It’s been an eventful and exciting year indeed :-)
While I’ve been away!
Just realised that it’s been a while since I updated. And I have good reason too! I have been busy preparing for the Tour of the Nilgiris… It’s now around a month and a week away — and I still don’t feel I’m preparing well enough. And though, I’ve been hard at work climbing hills […]
Love, light and happiness!
It’s the festival of lights — one I associate some great childhood memories. Growing up, we had fun with our share of crackers and other noise creating diversions. The crackers fortunately no longer seem attractive and we stopped indulging in them quite long ago — besides being polluting (both air and noise) somehow it doesn’t […]
More women power needed!
So the action on the Tour of the Nilgiris is heating up! There’s a lot going on and you’ll see it if you log into the website. Personally, I’m really excited about the ride and am looking forward to the hard work, the sweat, the tears and the fun! And if you still want to take […]
