We Remember Everything
One of the questions we receive often is – How do you remember everything from your travels? Simple, we’ve superhuman memories!! Kidding. Honestly, we don’t remember everything. That’s humanly impossible, isn’t it? However, we do follow a set of activities that serves as a memory aid when we finally sit down to blog about our…

Travel Attitude!
We often get asked about how we manage to travel so much. TBH, we don’t think it’s ‘much’; we would love to travel at least twice as much as we do now. But, returning to the point, we realise we cannot give ‘tips’ for we are not experts. What we can do is share our…

दिल का आंगन
दिल के मकान में एक आंगन है। वो आंगन मैंने मैहर के नाम कर दिया। अरे! मैहर तो छोटी जगह है। इतना बड़ा आंगन क्यों दे दिया? एक छोटा सा कमरा काफ़ी था। मैं हँस पड़ी। मैहर का खुला, नीला आसमान, ये गेहूं और सरसों के खेत वो कमल के अंगिनत झील मैहर की त्रिकूटा…

Appreciation Post
When N & I got married, we promised each other we would never stop wondering. We felt it was a coincidence that the words ‘wondering’ & ‘wandering’ were so similar… Over the last eight years, we have explored much of India! We pick up our car & drive away at the drop of the hat.…

What We Like About…
It may still be a bad time to talk about travel as India has emerged from the second COVID-19 wave only two months’ back. However, there is a post idea that has been on our minds for weeks now & we felt this would be the perfect time to write it down. So, we have…

Please Do Not Judge!
When the second COVID wave hit, we saw multiple posts on social media admonishing travel bloggers (& other kinds of influencers) for blogging & posting while the country was going through a catastrophe. The blogging/ influencing/ vlogging community was called ‘heartless’ & ‘selfish’. Now, we are not influencers by any stretch of imagination, nor do…

10 Reasons Why We Love The Mountains
Thanks to the lousy day we had yesterday, we have been trying to escape mentally to the mountains. If you know us, we feel ourselves at home in the mountains. 2021 has been difficult for all of us but we have managed to cope on most of the days. However, occasionally, like yesterday, it gets…

Mashobra
& Beyond To Chail, Fagu, Kufri & Theog March is that time of the year when the bitter cold has ended but the merciless Delhi Sun is still at least a month away. Being the winter lovers that we are, we wanted to hold back a slice of the frost & this made us think…

Pali
A Brief Halt at a Unique Indian Temple On our Udaipur to Jodhpur stretch of the Rajasthan road trip, Pali (92 KMS from Ranakpur) turned out to be a spontaneous halt. We had known about a unique temple existing in Pali but when we found it right on the highway, we had to stop. The…

Bali Basics
Before we headed to Bali, we had a lot of confusion about its geography & location. Was it an island? Was it a part of Indonesia? How big was it? Blame it on ignorance. And, there’s no better antidote for ignorance than travel. Once we’d been there, many contacted us when they were planning their…

In these six months, at least one getaway is needed to cooler environs. Aren’t we thankful that the Himalayas are a stone’s throw away?…

KHAJURAHO – A PHOTO-LOG
Madhya Pradesh must be the most underrated tourist destination in India. The centrally-located state has nature, heritage, & art. Yet, we neither hear much about it nor see family & friends visiting MP. We ourselves were oblivious of all that the state has to offer till we made our way there. On our maiden trip,…
