Happy New Year people !

Friday, January 4th, 2008

So… its that time of the year again.. when u let the bygones be bygones and move on with a new beginning… a new story to look forward to. In simple words, new resolutions, new year, new thoughts, new promises…. new fears and new joys.

I know I havent written for a while… am over with my temporary bout of bubliness. Its 2.00 am, so you can very well imagine…

I went out recently to the place thats usually referred to as the heaven on earth. Have a look at what I saw…

Time for world tour?

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

Came across this site which shows on the world map the countries you have been to. I have been to 6 other countries other than India. And it seems nothing on the world map. Time to pack my bags :)

Europe, an year back…

Monday, June 19th, 2006

I just realised its been exactly an year that I returned from a month long training cum vacation in Europe. So I thought let me just put the best pictures of the places I visited (Germany, Belgium, Holland, France).

My personal favourite however remains this one…. when we filled Holland (Enschede) with the colours of India. As part of my training, I visited a few schools in Holland. And this is one of the students sporting BINDI that we gave them as they really liked them on our foreheads and wanted to have them too.

The campus of University of Twente, Holland was amazingly plush green, with some beautiful birds flying here and there.

Thats Susan Mckenny in the UT campus trying to pluck some flowers for her desk.

Almost everyday after our training, I visited the Enschede market for some fun. This is one sexy car that I found there.

How can it happen that you go to holland and not visit Amsterdam, Duh !! BTW the airport is at Amsterdam. And yes, I DIDNT do what you might think I should or could have done. I remember some IIFA awards were scheduled for Amsterdam that time, when we were there. And I did see a few stars flying here and there. Details later.

On one weekend, I visited Koln in Germany. As soon as you get out of the station, you notice this extremely huge, old cathedral which is the landmark for Koln.

What I really liked about Holland was the simplicity of its houses and some pointy church tops. This one was taken in Henglo, Holland.
