My recent trek to the Nepal Himalayas wouldn’t have been the same sans the exciting encounters with people of the Solukhumbhu region – the region often termed as Everest Region by the trekking and climbing communities. Here are some of the snapshots from the trip: The Best Wishes...
My recent trek to the base of the highest mountain on earth was an experience I will cherish throughout my life. From beautiful alpine forests to arid, rounded landscapes formed by melted glaciers, the journey through the lap of the mighty Himalayas was exhilarating to say the least. In the...
It was time to bid goodbye to our biking brothers at Kochi and move on down south to explore the southern parts of Kerala. Kochi was slowly waking up from the Onam lag with a beautiful sunny day ahead. After crossing the city limits we saw a milestone. It read: ‘Kanyakumari :300 km’. We looked...
After two weeks of wandering on two wheels amid misty mountains, cascading waterfalls and cultural fests, we had landed up in the central coast of Kerala, in the bustling town of Kochi. Kochi, erstwhile Cochin, is a major port in Kerala and the most frequent first port-of-call for travellers to...

Australia has been at the top of most traveler’s dream destination. Captain Cook landed here in 1770 when he discovered this mammoth island and claimed its eastern side as a part of Great Britain. It has only been 240 years since it was first discovered so it is a fairly new nation and there...
Sitting on my couch in the luxurious Table Bay Hotel looking at the sailboats and sloops cruising on the azure waters of the South Atlantic Ocean, my mind drifts to the bay leading on to Robben Island Prison, where Nelson Mandela spent 27 years of his life. Being at the crossroad with history...
