I was born and raised in India, and have spent 20 years of my life in this country. I have lived in several cities and been all over the country from the northern to southernmost point. It is home 🙂 I wanted to create a living canvas of my country, bringing together some of the…
City down under: Sydney
In May this year, I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to travel to the other side of the world to Australia on business for 2 weeks. Flying from London Heathrow, 26 hours and 9 time zones later, I arrived in Sydney. With almost no sleep on the flight and a tight layover in…
25 European cities: A throwback
2018 marks 10 years since my first visit to Europe. It was a family holiday with my parents and sister back in 2008 when I was living in India, when we visited London and Paris. This was officially the beginning of my love affair with these 2 incredible cities. Just 4 years later, I made…
Tuscan wonder: Florence
Consistently ranked amongst the top 5 cities in Europe, Florence has a unique charm. It is a perfect reflection of Italian culture; the food, the wine, the art and architecture.

I couldn’t stop gasping as I walked around the city, each fragment of it a work of art built by the great grand masters. The art, culture, icons, people… they’re…

Secret London: Favourite ‘secret’ cocktail bars in London
One of my favourite things to do in London is discover ‘secret’ and ‘hidden’ speakeasy bars that make the drinking experience thrilling. London, and especially East London, has many places that are designed to be ‘secret’ yet ‘not-so-secret’, judged by the queues outside the discreet doors, crazy long waiting lists and popularity for after-work Friday…
City in 12 hours: Berlin
I am very fortunate as I get to travel to many new cities/countries every year as part of my job. However, this means that I have little to no time to actually see the place. I also love looking for cheap weekend breaks, and sometimes you can get Ryanair one-way fares that are less than…
