Bangkok The City of Angels (Krung Thep), Thailand

Image
If there were ever an epitome of diverse peaceful co-existence, Bangkok would be its insignia. This vibrant and diverse city masterfully balances the vibrant and seductive life of modern city with the deep-rooted traditions and rich history of its cultural heritage. Skyscrapers, luxury malls, and an electrifying nightlife blend harmoniously with its stunning temples, palaces, and cultural landmarks, all along the Chao Phraya River that runs through the heart of the city. Known affectionately as Krung Thep, the City of Angels, Bangkok is a true testament to serene coexistence. Reclining Buddha in Wat Pho As the sun rises over the vibrant city of Bangkok, your day begins with a visit to the iconic Wat Pho, home to the majestic Reclining Buddha. Wander through the tranquil grounds, marveling at the intricate details of over a thousand Buddha images. Experience the serenity of morning prayer, held at 9 am and 5 pm before the temple closes. I found it very peaceful, the rhythmic sounds calm

Tungnath Chandrashila Trek, Uttarakhand

Image
  How far can one push themselves to experience the smugness of summiting this beautiful peak?  This story is the answer to the question. Chandrashila Peak Standing tall at around 4000 meters, Chandrashila peak lies in the quaint little village of Chopta 30 kilometers ahead of Ukimath in Uttarakhand. My first acquaintance with this trek was when I read about it in Ruskin Bond's book 'All the roads lead to Ganga'. The write up describing the place and a quick google search was enough to set my mind on it. But I never thought it would take me three attempts to materialize it ! My first attempt was in February 2018 with my cousins. We reached the base village Chopta late at night around 10 pm after driving for 10 hours due to construction of all weather road. But to heavy snowfall that continued day and night, the whole area was wrapped in thick white layers of snow and the trek had to be cancelled. Never the less, Chopta looked beautiful. The second attempt was in April 2020

The Unchartered Goa, India

Image
Envisioning Goa without its vibrant nightlife, sun-kissed beaches, and the rhythmic pulse of full moon parties is nearly impossible! It stands as a haven for party enthusiasts and those yearning for the serenity of its southern beaches. However, beyond the bustling shores lies a facet of Goa that is equally enchanting, tranquil, and veiled from the common eye—awaiting discovery by those who venture beyond the beaches. As the monsoon descends, it breathes new life into the Western Ghats, transforming the entire landscape into a lush green spectacle. The beaches along the Konkan coast, stretching from Maharashtra through Goa and a bit beyond, embrace the off-season, trading their lively demeanor for a more subdued ambiance. While the Western Ghats come alive with verdant hues, cascading waterfalls, and ethereal mist, the beaches don a cloak of tranquility as ocean waves reclaim the coasts, prompting most beachfront shacks to shutter their doors. It is during this season that Goa's co

Sheen and Kangri of Kashmir, India

Image
  Sheen meaning snow in Kashmiri language and Kangri, the traditional pot that keeps the chill at bay, brings to mind the memories of cozy conversations with loved ones, sharing hearty meals as the cold air swirls around us. Sheen and Kangri, two contrasting elements that, when brought together, reveal the true essence of Kashmir—the beauty of its nature, its food, its people, and its culture; its  Kashmiriyat that goes beyond one's beliefs. This travelogue is a journey into the heart of my homeland, a quest to chase the snowfall and, in the process, rediscover the hidden gems of Kashmir. The western disturbances were approaching the northern region that would cause moderate to heavy rain and continuous rain could trigger snowfall even in the plains of Srinagar. Similar to the contrasting nature of Sheen and Kangri, the inclement weather brought inconvenience to those reliant on the roads for their livelihoods. However, it also offered a silver lining—a precious opportunity for a b
