Forever Jung!

We had passed this lit­tle town called Jung (also writ­ten as Jang) on the way to Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh and all of us were quite taken in by this quaint and charm­ing lit­tle place. We made a deci­sion to revisit it on our return journey.

More tales from the North East

While trav­el­ling in Kalimpong last year, sit­ting in a local café hav­ing an evening snack I came across a rather nice look­ing glossy travel mag­a­zine. I was rather sur­prised when I saw that it was pub­lished out of Sikkim. Both the con­tent and the pho­tographs were of bet­ter qual­ity than a lot of other travel […]

In the shade of the silver oak

If you want a short break, but don’t want to ven­ture out too far from the city, Nandi Hills is a good option. The only prob­lem though is that all sorts of crowds land up there by mid-morning and it seems more like a mela out there dur­ing the weekends.

Never a dull moment at the BRC!

When Shankar called say­ing he was going to the Wildlife Res­cue and Reha­bil­i­ta­tion Cen­tre (WRRC) and would I like to go along, I jumped at the oppor­tu­nity. The last time I went was with Usha and it’s been a while. A cou­ple of reha­bil­i­tated jack­als in their own enclo­sure It’s always amaz­ing to see Saleem at […]

Nowhere to rush, but everywhere to go!

A week­end at mag­i­cal Fringe Ford : a beau­ti­ful home­s­tay nes­tled amongst the hills in Wayanad.

A day out in Kolar

With the heat begin­ning to get to every­one this sum­mer in Ban­ga­lore, I thought this would be a an appro­pri­ate visual for every­one. It’s such a nice feel­ing — to fall into the water, look­ing upwards and feel­ing the spray all around you… SPLASH! I frankly don’t even remem­ber the last time I did this… […]

A hamlet steeped in history: Begur

Brav­ing the hot sun, we ven­tured out towards Begur last Sun­day morn­ing. I had come across a men­tion of this ham­let some­where online and had seen a cou­ple of pho­tographs of an old tem­ple. And then there was another rea­son why I wanted to visit this par­tic­u­lar town. Accord­ing to his­tory, the name ‘Ben­ga­looru’ apparently […]

Running the spiral at Auroville

On the Feb 16/17 week­end along with a gang of friends trav­elled to Pondicherry for the Auroville marathon. Auroville turned 40 on Feb 28 and this was one of the events to com­mem­o­rate the occa­sion. Though I must admit that I shuf­fled and walked through most of this one since I had fallen and knocked […]
