I went to UK after a gap of 5 years. I was going to cruise on the Harmony of the Seas (on invitation). I was sure I wanted to extend my stay. I was not sure what to do tough. In the end I decided to stay in London for 3 nights on my own. Visit Britain in…

A Wonderful Visit to Stratford upon Avon and Anne Hathaway Cottage, United Kingdom
I visited Stratford upon Avon and Anne Hathaway Cottage on the same day as Cotswold. Anne Hathaway Cottage and Stratford-upon-Avon were the last two stops before we headed back to London. My only experience of Shakespeare was to read Julius Caesar in class 12th as part of the English course. I found it a tough…
An Amazing Visit to the Beautiful Cotswold Region
If given a choice, I prefer small towns to the big cities. It is not that I do not enjoy the cities but after a few days I wish for a slower pace, a quieter place! So visiting the Cotswold region after a few days in London made perfect sense! I visited the towns of…
An Amazing Visit to the Sea Life London Aquarium
I visited the Sea Life London Aquarium in May 2016. It is located right next to the London Eye. The next building is Dreamwork’s Shrek’s Adventure. The area is a happening one! The nearest metro station is Westminster, when you get out of the tube station you can see the Big Ben on one side,…
London Underground, Oyster Card and Google Maps- A Perfect Match
When it comes to sense of direction I rank really low. I heavily use Google Maps to find my way around, at least for the last two years now. Before going to England I went on a sponsored trip with Google Maps in India. I learned many few useful tips and tricks there. I was looking…

An Unforgettable Journey to Eastern Sri Lanka
I got only a fleeting glimpse, much of it from a moving bus, but it has been an unforgettable journey to Eastern Sri Lanka. I have but briefly touched upon the cities of Batticaloa, Kattankudy and Trinclomalee but the impressions I am going to carry back are lasting. The Grand Old Tree As a tourist…
Visiting the Shrek’s Adventure in London
I went to Dreamworks Tours Shrek’s Adventure in London by as soon as it opened at 10.00 am. Shrek’s Adventure is right next to London Eye! There were no queues at that time. Our first batch had probably 12 people. A lot of them were families with kids. As we were getting ready to go…
My First Ever Cruise Experience with the Harmony of the Seas
Harmony of the Seas was my first ever cruise experience. When I said this to the commander of the ship Captain Gus Andersson he replied, “well from here on it will be all downhill for you!” And we both laughed because the Harmony of the Seas is currently the biggest cruise ship in the world!…
Ashoka Rock Edict Delhi- How Not to Preserve History
I was recently staying with ITC Maurya in Delhi. As the name suggests the hotel is inspired by the Mauryan Dynasty and particularly the Emperor Ashoka! They took us on a visit the Ashoka Rock Edict in Delhi! The place is close to the ISCON Temple at East of Kailash. If you search ‘Ashoka Rock…
