Tryst with nature

Posted on August 7, 2007August 7, 2007

If I write a book, I’d like to do it in a quiet place like this one. Sitting outside a cottage, looking over a beautiful mist covered valley. Watching the rolling hills and catching a glimpse of a shimmering lake in the distance. Enjoying a hot cup of coffee and the company of Deku (the cute dog we adopted for the weekend).

lush green hills

It was an outing with the girls and four of us set off to spend some time at this off-the-beaten-track village in Tamil Nadu. It was magical. One of those places you don’t want to tell anyone about because you don’t want it to lose it’s quaint and quiet charm. And you definitely don’t want to see it teeming with truck loads of loud touristy families with a bunch of badly behaved children.

good morning!

No… this is one place that will go un-named. Just a few pictures to capture it’s beauty.

Some places, I feel, are best left un-discovered!

Head for the hills

Nandi Hills makes for a lovely drive in this weather. And the weather’s been brilliant lately, I’m sure Bangaloreans would agree. Well, talking about drives, a few of us got together, bundled ourselves and our equipment into Praveen’s Zen and went off to Nandi Hills on a cool and cloudy…

Meeting the handsome Mr Bagha!

Posted on October 21, 2005October 21, 2005

Lausanne is picture postcard pretty – everywhere you turn there is something worth clicking. Steph picked me up from the airport and we came home to grab a bite. Bagha was nowhere around (he was probably chasing a lady somewhere, but Steph said he was more likely asleep!). So we had to leave without finding him.

Girls just wanna have fun!

From exotic foreign locations, to rural Indian ones – there is nothing that is out of boundsΒ for the single Indian woman traveler today. And when I say β€œsingle” I don’t mean it in the literal sense. You could be a part of a couple, but wanting to travel on your…
