We visited Dilli Haat today for a few hours. I always like that place it is such a riot of colors. And the weather was still quite bearable, though it is getting hotter by every passing day. Photography with my daughter is not that easy but she is growing up every day and is quite…

This is a picture from my trek in Uttarakhand in 2011. I sometimes get nostalgic about those open spaces. This post is part of Sky Watch.
The Travel Gods Might be Looking My Way Again
You read my rant about all my trips getting cancelled. You read my yesterday’s post about nothing in particular! But finally it looks like that travel Gods are looking my way again. Remember that cancelled Kashmir trip? Well I now have the tickets for Srinagar and an invitation from the Khyber Himalayan Resort and Spa…
International Flights- What Fun They are!
I am not a frequent flyer and hence the headline of this post. For me flying internationally is exciting and fun.

Of Pillars and Ancient Doorways

Jungle Babbler

This Game of Ghosts by Joe Simpson
This Game of Ghosts by Joe Simpson is a remarkable book. I thought there could be nothing more gripping that his Touching the Void but I enjoyed reading this one equally if not more. If you have not read Touching the Void I would say you read it first. If you like reading about the…
