That Lonely walk!!

A walk in the Valley

Some Walks are meant to be taken alone...
I was at sangla on August of 2009.sangla is a  valley which is surrounded by snow capped mountains  and picturesque pine forest.
It was a chilly morning that day . My sojourn for couple of days was a guest house near the Baspa river. I was all set and geared up with my camera  for the walk near river. As I went down the river I noticed beautiful tiny houses and people sipping there cupa chai ( Tea) in there lilliputian portico. They seem to be calm and relaxed with smile on there face.These merry men ,women and children who were coming along my way were so unlike the community which I have seen in the course of my life. Maybe the scenic beauty had cast a magic spell on them. The long walk was looking for answers about soul .
Pondering of thoughts lead me to the river . I washed my face , looked at my self into the water and thought what a lonely walk it was!!

The Bank of the river is so enchanting that one can easily fall in love with this place. I had my spritual encounter which is still lively in my mind. Today is May'2017 Iam recalling the moment almost after 8 years .

The Goan reunion

REUNIOIN 2019 A  sojourn , a destination, a spirit ... Yes Iam talking about my Goan reunion. Oh , Boy ! How excited we were.  Goa is indeed  the ideal place in India for a school reunion. So the tickets were booked well in advance to avoid any hassle. Now came the question for booking the property, finally after much discussion a villa was booked for 3 days and 2 nights from November 23 to 25.

ON THE WAY The D day finally arrived .. it was 22  November 2018, I was suppose to leave for Mumbai. Oh ya Instead of flying directly to Goa we planned to break the journey for more fun... 3 of my friends were flying with me from Delhi and 2 were going to meet in Mumbai. From Mumbai we were suppose to catch an overnight train to Goa. The best part was that only 2 tickets were confirmed and we were 5 in number. It was a captivating e...

A day at Landour

lal tibba a view to capture snow -capped mountains Breathtaking , it was , the snow-capped mountains, picturesque surrounding I could feel love in the air. Though I have been to Mussorie many times but this part of heaven remained unexplored. Landour, which was a Cantonment town in British India was named after a village called Llanddowror in south-west Wales. Lost in the mists of Himalayas, draped in the scarlet red color of rhododendrons & thick deodars, Landour reminds you of the British Raj. A 5-kilometer steep drive or walk from the crowded bazaars of Mussoorie, it’s a different world of peace and lush views. Landour should be on every mountain lover bucket list. This beautiful town is the home of famous writer " Ruskin Bond". A mystic view The “Europeans” made a point of preventing Indians (even the royal families) from building in Landour, and so there is not a single residence of an Indian prince in Landour, which can only be found in Muss...
