Wishing you all a very peaceful 2013. My country certainly needs it. But wherever you are may you travel safe and even more in 2013. May you travel far and near. And may you travel more with your near and dear ones as well throughout 2013.
It was a Fabulous Year
It has been a fabulous year for me personally. I really went places. You can read the round up here (scroll down to the third account but chances that you will read it all!) I would remember it as an year when I managed to haul myself up to the Everest Base Camp. Then I…
Alive is Awesome- With an iPad
Do you remember some of the posts that I did for Cinthol’s Alive is Awesome contest? There were some prizes associated with it. I was extremely reluctant in the beginning but the person who was in charge of the contest was one persuasive person. Once I committed I did all the posts that were required. And…

The Narrow Lanes of the Bazaar at Raipur, Rajasthan
I like strolling through small town bazaars. Raipur in Pali, Rajasthan was no exception!
