Sunset at the Hauz Khas Lake, Delhi, India
I have hardly explored my own city, Delhi. When I landed up at Hauz Khas, it was for meeting other bloggers. But when I found a water body and ruins of the medieval era, I decided to explore. I have also promised my self that I will explore Delhi more. Let us see if I can pull…

If you have been blogging for some time now you might have noticed that our blogs change, they go through phases and at least in my case my blog has grown up with me. When I look at some of my earlier posts and the pictures I posted I often wonder aloud- how could I…
