Do monkeys sit in one corner of the earth? NO! They jump from one tree to another, pluck and taste new fruits, play with each other, tease cows and crows, and screech at humans! Were we always human? No! Do our ancestors like us bound? No! Is that why they screech at us? May be, yes!
When the melancholy of sea flooded the mountains
It was happening again. I was sitting in a cab, looking alternatively at the hills and the valley I was leaving behind while approaching the higher destination. Unexpectedly, the journey was also witnessing the changes that I had only heard about or seen in the news. I was visiting Badrinath soon after the floods devastated…
Hyatt Regency Da Nang Resort and Spa, Vietnam
The stay broke the ice between Hyatt and the Happy Hippie and How! The dominance of ‘H’ is screaming ‘happiness’ here because it was in beautiful beyond words Vietnam. Delay in flights between Cambodia and Vietnam is as common as my craving for coffee, so checking into Hyatt Da Nang was the best part of…
Kochi- Muziris Biennale 2019
What is the purpose of travel? To escape from somewhere or to escape to something? What is the purpose of art? To please the eyes of strangers, to express without explaining or to have a discourse around social and universal matters? There cannot be a single purpose of travel and art, just like there cannot…

I landed at the Ngurah Rai International Airport and the Balinese Temple Architecture was just the welcoming sight I needed to embark on my journey in Indonesia.

Hotel Shangri-La, Singapore
As I stepped inside the lobby of Shangri-La, Singapore, looking around reminded me of the James Bond series. For some reason, I imagined Pierce Brosnan flashing a credit card in his signature fashion, flirting with the receptionist all along! The high ceiling tower wing added a modern yet elegant touch to the charming entrance. The…
My First Monsoon in God’s Own Country
This was my first summer away from the hills, my sanctum sanctorum, from the scorching heat of Gujarat. I had made two trips to both Garhwal and Kumaon in the previous month, but May and June in Ahmedabad are nothing short of torturous. So I just wanted to go someplace cooler and greener. A blogger…
