Even before going to Unawatuna I knew about stick fishing and I was completely floored by those pictures. So I was on a keen lookout for stick fishermen in the region. I got my opportunity today. We were going to Mirissa Beach from Unawatuna and even though it was mid day we saw two fishermen…
Sri Lanka- First Impressions
If you are visiting Sri Lanka from India you will find a lot of similarities. On our way to Unawatuna we found countless Tata and Ashok Leyland buses playing on the streets. There are Bajaj Autos, and I spotted an Alto parked right at the airport. This post is about my Sri Lanka first impressions!…
Beautiful Skies from Jagatsukh
For today’s sky watch I once again fall back on the mountains, my first love. My last visit was to Jagatsukh near Manali and I share two pictures from there. Manali is overrun with tourists now but just go away a little from the main town and you will find places like Jagatsukh! I like…
Bucket List? What Bucket List?
Do you have a bucket list for travel? Do you try to travel out of it? What all features on it? I have toyed with the idea of a bucket list but I never got around making it. I can see the uses of such a list, it would keep me busy for years altogether….

Both the pictures featuring today are from Haridwar. We were walking back to our bus after rafting when we crossed many street side stalls. I have always been…
Landscapes from Jagatsukh, Himachal Pradesh
Walking around in the hills is my favorite past time. And this time in Jagatsukh I walked at least for 8 hours in three sessions. I should actually say I was on the road for 8 hours because for most of the time I would stop and click pictures. I don’t know why the landscapes…
Khakhnal, Himachal Pradesh
I visited a small village in Himachl Pradesh called Khakhnal. It is the next village after Jagatsukh towards Naggar. I love walking and I love walking in the mountains. So one fine evening after a lot of good food at Ramakant ji’s home I decided to go for an evening walk all alone. It was…
Which is Your Favorite State in India?
I know a lot of you will scream and say, this is an unfair question. I know you might have more than one favorite states in India. I think I will find it hard to answer it myself. But so what if it is difficult? It has to be tired. But to answer it I…
