Winter wonderland: Iceland

Snow, ice, freezing conditions. Though the thought of this elicits fear and dread in most people, I am the person who loves winter! It is my favourite season, and growing up in a hot country, I always had this fascination with snow. Therefore it is only fair for me to choose one of the coldest…

City in 12 hours: Dublin

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 am usually shuttling between the airport, hotel, and conferences and meetings. It can get very intense, but if I…

It is easy to feel the exhaustion as you navigate this expansive…

A grand symphony: Vienna

Vienna’s grandeur hits you as soon as you step out of your hotel. The grand architecture, imposing buildings and just its general magnitude seem to fill every corner of this city. Watch an opera. This is more reasonable than you would expect if you plan well in advance. I booked tickets to see Onegin at Wiener Staatsoper….
