A South-Goan Vacation
1st March, 2018- We were on AirAsia. It took us an hour and 20 minutes to reach South Goa. Our pre-paid taxi driver drove us through picturesque inroads. Fresh green fields bordered with tall coconut trees and homes which looked like they were from the Victorian era, added bursts of color to our journey. There … Continue reading A South-Goan Vacation

It was our third visit to Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve. (You can read about our first here and here) Shruthi, Ashwin and little Shristi (who were visiting us from the US) joined us along with other family members.

On a “Musical” Journey in Salzburg
The hills are alive with the sound of music... Do you remember this song from the movie "The Sound of Music"? It's my absolute favorite! Ever since I watched this movie (and re-watched it about a hundred times!) I made up my mind to visit the beautiful city of Salzburg, home of the Von Trapp … Continue reading On a “Musical” Journey in Salzburg

A visit to Allmend, Frauenfeld
When Mike suggested we go for a walk on a warm lazy Sunday afternoon, I gave into the idea, but not without a tough fight, as I had to pull myself away from the book I was reading. But as we neared Allmend, I had to admit I felt glad to be out and about. … Continue reading A visit to Allmend, Frauenfeld
A Baby Shower for my Sister-in-law
Last weekend I held a Baby shower for my sister-in-law at our home. It is not a typical Swiss tradition, but I thought why not? I'd felt bad that I could not do it when she was having her first child, so this time I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity. We decided to make … Continue reading A Baby Shower for my Sister-in-law
The Elephant Safari, Corbett National Park
The Elephant Safari at Corbett National Park is one of the most happiest, most blessed times of my life! It happened last October when we visited the park and its neighboring beauties- Binsar and Nainital. I'm sorry to say I don't remember the details of the trip; Anybody who knows me, knows all about my poor memory! … Continue reading The Elephant Safari, Corbett National Park
Chaplin’s World, Vevey
I don’t know if it was the love for his movies or the charisma he brought into the film industry or just the sheer romance for the classics (which I inherited from my dad), that when I read the news that a Charlie Chaplin Museum, "Chaplin`s World" had opened in Vevey, in the French part of Switzerland, … Continue reading Chaplin’s World, Vevey

Being one of the biggest fans of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle`s fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes, paying a visit to the Reichenbach Falls, was on my travel list for a long time! So when Mike took me, my parents and my mother-in-law there as a surprise on my birthday, my happiness was boundless!! Reichenbach falls are … Continue reading Reichenbach Falls
