A Winter Affair: London
London welcomed me with a chilly embrace. The temperature hovering around 0 degrees. Venturing into this iconic city for the first time, the breeze carried a hint of excitements. Bundled up in layers and layers, wrapped in the warmth of my favourite Clarks boots I strolled along the Thames.

Life takes you down many paths … and my favourite one would be walking through these narrow alleys of white houses and the red and pink bougainvillaeas in Mykonos Town.
All Roads Lead to Roma
Italy has been on my list since I watched Julia Roberts in “Eat, Pray, Love”. A lovely manifesto about women breaking free of the shackles of calorie counting and body image. There is something so refreshing about the advice to enjoy the pizza and forget about the “Muffin Top” – Just buy bigger jeans!
Sunset in Penang
While growing up, going to Penang was synonymous to going to a rich country. As a 10- year-old, relatives who wore lovely perfumes and nylon clothes and brought me Quality Street chocolates (pre-Ferrero Rocher days) came from Penang. Visiting Penang gave me goosebumps as it felt like life had come a full circle. The flight…

A Date with San Francisco
San Francisco: What do I write about this city! I had read about it- being the high tech & start-up capital, watched it in movies like Social Network and had seen the pictures; but nothing prepared me for what I was going to experience. Since I took to traveling as a passion, have been to…

Melborne Sunburn
Melbourne or Sydney, there is always this battle when you think of which one to pick as your vacation destination.

Lets ME-ditate
If you had asked me a few months ago if I meditate, I’d probably give you a “Are you crazy??” look. But have a look at these places and am sure you would say, I can sit here and watch this piece of heaven forever. Do not be concerned about your thoughts. Do not try…
Vancouver – The Best Place On Earth
