Fear of the unknown.. When I saw Sugi at the Denpasar airport, smiling and waving warmly to me, holding a paper board with my name on it, I was relieved. Solo travelling has its share of fear of the unknown and anxiousness. A friend in Melbourne had recommended me Sugi’s travel company (go_bali_holiday), he was … Continue reading Ubud – Where Nature Beckons

Home Coming…
Ahmed tried to capture the picturesque scenery through his Canon DSLR camera, however everything looked hazy and out of focus, or was it just his teary eyes! Only he knew what he felt inside his heart, at this moment, in front of the Dal lake in Kashmir, standing along the empty pier, the ‘shikara’ (boat) … Continue reading Home Coming…
You are all you have….
Today while cleaning my bookshelf I came across my old diary. I randomly opened a page where I read the below excerpt dated May, 2014…almost six years back… “Melbourne, the city of music, food and culture. The city which has embraced the culture of the world in itself. The city knows how to enjoy life, … Continue reading You are all you have….
The Human Touch!
Last few weeks I have been feeling fervently quite low due to several reasons. Mood swings, unsolicited tears, drifting apart in solitude etc. Guess we all go through this phase once in a while in the journey of life. Not everyone is perfect or let’s say none of us are perfect! When I have my … Continue reading The Human Touch!
A New Horizon!
Sometimes when I walk on the road, I suddenly look back, as if some known one is looking at me. But then I find no one. Sometimes someone crosses me in the crowd and I sense a known smell, but then I can't find anyone. I question myself, what am I looking for? Whom am … Continue reading A New Horizon!

All the kids were just exhilarated with the impression of throwing colours at each other and getting a colourful face themselves. We would blend … Continue reading The Colours of Life!

I put my headphones on and play my favourite playlist, get into my … Continue reading My Fitness Mantra
My friend at the Cafe!
I have a friend at the coffee shop. I don’t know her name but she knows mine. She also knows what coffee I usually order. Every morning, one of the motivations I have, to come to office, is my coffee and a small chat with my friend. We talk about everything, about the weather, the … Continue reading My friend at the Cafe!
What’s your song?
They say, “Everyone has their own song”. A song that connects them to eternity, to love, to life and to themselves. Similarly, every relationship has its own song. A song that is reminiscent of time immemorial or of something exceptional. A song is your own because it relates to some specific personal event, it is … Continue reading What’s your song?
Dear Diary…
Dear Diary, I am missing you a lot. When suddenly your pages were over, I was crammed with a sudden vacuum, despair, and fear. I shuffled through to the previous pages in the hope of coming across another blank page where I can write my thoughts down but there were none! You were suddenly over. … Continue reading Dear Diary…
