Blessed are my eyes.

Thursday, June 16th, 2011

There are very few moments in life where you stop to think, and forget to start again… We knew we only had 2 days in Istanbul, so upon our 6am arrival into the Bus Terminal (from our 12 hour overnight bus from Cappadocia) we got a little antsy as they kept us waiting for the [...]

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

So the place we were staying… Kseniya makes new friends Yeah, anyways, Loki’s Backpackers Hostel? It’s nice: Our circuit around Cuzco was brief. We pretty much saw most of everything we were supposed to see in under 4 hours. This was the route we took: – At time of posting in Cuzco, it was 50 [...]

Hong Kong by night

Saturday, December 18th, 2010

I think my trip in Hong Kong has been defined by limitless amounts of good food. Like being in NYC Chinatown on crack. A little bit more food – At time of posting in Hong Kong, it was 64.4 °F – Humidity: 68% | Wind Speed: 11km/hr | Cloud Cover: Cloudy

The last bits of my journey

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

And all good things shall come to an end…   I party it up with some classy ladies in Singapore on National Day: I return the favor by having their apartment served: The next morning (however difficult it was to get up for various reasons), I explore the very fake beach of Siloso at Sentosa [...]

Being sore for Mysore: 3rd sex’es, Giant Palaces, and Pretty Bollywood Fountains

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

Took an early morning bus to Mysore yesterday, which ended up being a long daytrip to Srirangapatnam (if you’re a history buff, you’d recognize it) and Brindavan Gardens (if you’re a Bollywood fan, you’d recognize it) as well. Got back at midnight and I’m pretty beat. Here’s what I saw from a hectic journey, including [...]

Monsoonal Goa

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

They always ask: “You’ve been to India? Did you go to Goa?” and I always say “no.” In fact, I wasn’t planning to go to Goa on this trip until 4 days ago when I met an Indian family on my train to Hyderabad who told me to go. So while I was in Hampi, [...]

Magical Hampi

You haunt my dreams There’s nothing to do but believe, Just Believe. Just Breathe. I wake up the next morning to see Lakshmi the [...]

Good Company in Hyderabad

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

I don’t think I will remember Hyderabad for its beautiful sights like Charminar or the Buddha Temple. Instead, I will take with me from Hyderabad a group of amazing people and new friends, from the unceasing hospitality of Saraswati and her sister Madhurya, to the random morning conversation on a bus that led to a [...]

Back on the Road…with a lot of pretty pictures

Monday, July 26th, 2010

So I’m back on the road, hanging out with my friend Vaibhav and his classmates at the Indian School of Business, which is an hour from the city center of Hyderabad. It’s good to get another perspective of India from a completely different group of people: Indian born students who’ve been around the world and [...]
