There are some things, to which you get stuck for lifetime. No matter how many times you do them, they never get boring. Infact more you do them, more in love you fall with them. Adventure sport is one such activity. Although adventure sports as a whole have a tendency to get you hooked, but out of all the options available there is always one which catches your fancy. more…
During the first two days of stay in HONG KONG, our cousin was planning our trip, telling us about various tourist places and which all we should not miss. One on this list was Macau. more…
More often than not, the journey is more enjoyable then the final destination. Undoubtedly you set out on a journey in search of thrills and on reaching the end you are enchanted; but the fun you have had on your way can not be explained in words. This is what explains our 6th day in HONG KONG. We had fun at ‘The Peak’ and ‘Big Budha’ on ‘Lantau Island’ what we really enjoyed was the journey to reach the two places. more…
The interrogating officer at the HONG KONG airport told us about four places which are a must see in HONG KONG viz. The Ocean Park, Disney land, The Peak and The Big Budha. Actually these four are the officially declared tourist spots in HONG KONG so whosoever goes to HONG KONG pays them a visit and now it was our turn. more…
In the HONG KONG airport, until we reached the immigration desk, I was wondering if we were actually there.

What will I be writing; if I got something to write etc? Frankly speaking neither I had answer to any of the question at that time nor have I now. more…
This was supposed to be my 100th post, but a ‘Russian problem’ [soon you will get to know about it] made it 99th. A week in November and no post yet. Am sure you know the reason [the ‘Russian problem’ also contributed partially to the delay]. In all these days I wrote a review of ‘Body of Lies’ [which got deleted, courtesy Russian hacker, the above mentioned ‘Russian problem’] thinking it will be an end to the bloc, but no use [this is one desperate attempt, lets see what happens].
Snow clad mountain peaks, greenery all around, fog cover and white water of the river flowing as if it is in a rush to go somewhere. Sounds like a familiar landscape of some Yash Chopra movie shot in exotic location of Switzerland. Well the landscape might sound familiar but it is not of Switzerland or northern Europe, but that of Gangotri.
