Chilika Lake, Mangalajodi and Konark- Glimpses of Odisha, India

The Sun Temple at Konark, Odisha- A UNESCO World Heritage Site

Posted on April 19, 2012

Chandrabhaga Beach, Odisha

Posted on February 20, 2012

I was at the Chandrabhaga Beach In January with my two friends. I wanted to take a walk up to the boats and on the way I noticed these two men. I sometimes have had conversations with people who have very little idea about beach wear in India. Well here is a picture!

Skywatch Friday- Boats at Chandrabhaga Beach, Konark, Odisha

Posted on February 17, 2012

It is difficult to say what I love more mountains or beaches. But I get to see a lot less beaches as I live very far away from the sea. Earlier my favorite activity around sea used to be to get drenched. Now a days I like to walk along a beach equally. So when…
