Disclaimer: Once again, this is not going to be a travelogue where I will give an account of what I did and where I went. I detest such travelogues. Also, since the duration of my vacation was a little long, I don't know if there will be one post for a day. For now, this.... Continue Reading →

About Trying and Sometimes Succeeding
Moving on is a weird thing that requires a lot of courage. To be able to have faith that what's ahead is better than what is now is a tad unsettling. Besides, telling yourself that you deserve this change or being ready for the future is something that is very easy to delay. We're okay... Continue Reading →
Day 6: Inflation
It's very hot in the train. I have been sleeping on the uppermost berth, so it's even hotter. There is greater activity this time than the last because a group of 50 Maharashtrians are in our compartment too. The chatter is nice, friendly, and full of camaraderie.

She is contemplating the whys and hows of what happened to her. It was a simple story but the gravity... Continue Reading →
Day 3: Who do I think I am?
An elephant. But more on that later. In context, I am a tourist who did many tourist-y things today. And if this is going to be one of those posts where I go through the places I visited, it would be very boring for me to write. Who wants to know how beautiful the tea... Continue Reading →
Day 2: Going Away
Day 2 I think what is most striking to a Mumbaikar who travels outside Mumbai is how time just slows down. I have a feeling that if they didn't look at their watches, they can safely finish half a day's work in what would really be 3 hours or so. Where does this grand assumption... Continue Reading →
Day 1: Deflation
Disclaimer: This series is not a blow by blow account of what I did on my recent vacation nor is it a quick perusal for getaways and rates for hotels and sight-seeing. This series is the reflection of what was on top of my mind when I was travelling. It was written in real-time, at... Continue Reading →
