A Fresh Start : Travel Genes

This Diwali we decided to do something new... after getting married and migrated to a new city, it takes months to settle down and adjust to new surroundings. So now that the dust is settling down, we (me and my hubby) decided to satisfy 2 BAD habits that we have : I being a food junkie and he being a travel crazy. So i happily volunteered myself to be the foodie while he being the photographer while on the travel.


And the final result is Travel Genes ! A culture travelogue from the roads less traveled.


A long cherished dream of becoming a professional blogger mixed with travel adventures and finger licking food... Looking forward to many new vistas to explore...

We reached Bodh on the 12th night, where we spent the night in the guest house of Bodh. It was only on the 13th morning that we got a chance to visit some of the Bodh schools. It was an enlightening experience.

My dream is to fly over the rainbow so high...

At some point of time or the other in our lives we all wish that things were different… Atleast a little bit, u know. Is unsatisfaction the eternal condition of mankind? Aira had met few people in her life who were satisfied with whatever they had and how their lives were. Maybe, just one or two. She could not understand. Was it she who was hankering after things to be perfect? Was she a perfectionist? One thought led on to another as she kept thinking.

To Life, Love and Friendship! Happy Birthday, Kasturi!!!

Life means: A winter evening, 2 friends, 2 bottles of beer or even 2 mugs of coffee…. does it matter? Whether you drink vodka, or coffee for that matter, is immaterial. When you are

What do Women Want?!?!

Frankly speaking, the answer is not that simple. This statement, I hope, is a relief for many guys who, after reading the title, must be thinking that this post is another of those pro-feminist articles. I am not talking of the movie, What Women Want, either. Also, to assure you, this is not one of those “top results” lists. So let us see what this is going to be all about.
