Xmas on Unwind Isle Posted on December 27, 2007December 28, 2007 A week or so ago, we went for a team lunch to a place called Unwind Island somewhere on the Outer Ring Road. Don’t ask me why they call it that, I couldn’t really figure out as there wasn’t an island in sight 🙂 A few days ago, on the Xmas break, as we were being rowed across a river to a little island called Amgol, my first thought was: “Now this is the real unwind island!” And it did turn out to be just that – a time to relax and unwind.

I’ve been terribly slack lately with different things taking priority, but I do have the Coorg and Paro (Bhutan) pieces coming up.

Racing Buffalos, fried fish and loads of slush! Posted on December 21, 2006December 21, 2006 Where on earth can you witness hefty buffalos running 100 metres through mud and slush in under 14 seconds? The answer folks is a few hundred kilometers away from the city in Mangalore during the Kadri Kambala festival! And that’s where three of us – Venkatesh, Sandeep and I headed… Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Print (Opens in new window) Print Read More
Hungry, kya? Posted on December 30, 2008December 30, 2008 “You’ve never been to Food Street?†I could hear disbelief in Badri’s voice when I replied in the negative. It’s true. I’ve never been there. Never had the chance. And besides, no one’s ever suggested meeting at Food Street before. So on Sunday evening, a few of us got together… Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Print (Opens in new window) Print Read More
