Mumbai Dreams #6: Delhi Vs MumbaiĀ 

I really like this series and hence, want to continue with it! Yes, I’ve jumped from #3 to #5 and now #6. The blog #4 is still in draft stage and I know I could have moved the numbers around but I want that blog to be #4. It is taking longer to write that…

Mumbai Dreams #5: Weekend Getaway – Camping trip to Kashid

Having been in Mumbai for 7 months now, I feel a little embarrassed about how little I’ve explored the areas around Mumbai. The main reason for this is the fact that every long break I pack my bags and head home to Delhi! I’m someone who loves who going home but this dampens my travel…

2018: New Year, Still Old Me

A new year is here. My 28th year. It’s crazy how time flies. Yes, I sound like an oldie, pardon me, I am ageing! 😦 Every year I think of the many new things I’ll do in the new year but hardly get around to doing them. 2017 was a weird year. I moved cities….

Mumbai Dreams #3: Real Realty Crisis

Its been over 3 months since I wrote a post. I feel terrible. I thought moving to a new city would give me a lot of free time a whole new perspective for my blog. But I guess I’ve been to consumed with issues of my own. Moving to a new city comes with a…

Mumbai dreams #2: Two weeks down

Yayay, I’ve completed two weeks in the city of dreams! Am I closer to achieving my dreams? Maybe! I haven’t had much time to explore the city yet (thanks to my super busy schedule in office). But I did manage to get out a little and see a few places. Let’s start with my top…

Mumbai dreams #1: Sea, sky and people

(This post covers a lot of the random thoughts that go through my head all the time. I apologize if I’ve rambled on.) Hi reader, I have news, I’ve recently shifted base to Mumbai. Uhmm, what brings me here? My super boring corporate job has dragged me to the city of dreams. Am I thrilled?…

Book Review#2: The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad by Twinkle Khanna

I’m on a roll with my reading. I’m through with two books in less than a week. Some of it can be attributed to the fact that this second book, that I am attempting to review today, was actually a really light read. I haven’t been a big fan of Indian authors, so my picking…

Book Review#1: Last Man in Tower by Aravind Adiga

Till about 2 years back, I used to read about 50+ books a year. Reading was a habit inculcated in me when I was much younger. By the time my age had reached the double digits, I used to devour books. My mum is an English teacher which probably explains my reading habit. I would…

Masked

Earlier in the year, a friend and I headed to Jodhpur, Rajasthan for a weekend trip. I have always been fascinated with Rajasthan. Being in close proximity to Delhi, I’ve visited this state a lot. Each trip has left me with a different experience and each time I’ve wanted to return to Rajasthan. The state…

Food Trail #1: Chandini Chowk

Like I mentioned in a blog before, I have been grappling with writing and have diagnosed myself with writer’s block. I was hoping that writing about something I am passionate about will help and I hope I am right this time.  Delhi in winters is perfect, during the day the sun shines brightly with a…
