Colourful stroll.
Posted on June 24, 2019
The houses here in the southern parts of India are a lot more colourful so it’s fantastic to have a little early morning stroll down a village street. Well, maybe not in all villages ……but for sure in this !
I hope you enjoyed the morning stroll and that the colours made you smile. I also hope your week has started out in a good way. Mondays are still Mondays unless you have vacation and maybe some of you have. I’m still struggling to get some sort of routine in my life. I’m that kind of person who needs routines to feel good. Anyhow, enjoy your day either in the grass with a good book or at the office.
Talk to you soon.
Scotland of India, Coorg.
Posted on May 8, 2019
My hubby had his birthday last week so I decided to surprise him with a weekend trip to Coorg, the place called Scotland of India. We both like to walk, hiking, breathe fresh air and see new things so off we went in our car. Well, we didn’t drive. Our driver Ganga drove. When we asked about how long the car ride would be to get there everyone said around 5 hours but it actually took more than 6 due to the insane traffic in Bangalore. Took us 2 hours just to get out of Bangalore !
Even though the ride up was a little rough at times it sure was worth it. Our jeep driver was really skilled. It wasn’t his first drive on the bumpy roads.
I’ll show more from Coorg but be prepared. We are using our legs on this trip. No rickshaw ride at all. Strap on your hiking boots and fill a bottle of water. We need to stay hydrated. Let me know when you are ready <:
Cheeky monkeys in Nandi hills.
Posted on May 6, 2019
We stopped for breakfast at a restaurant along the road close to Nandi hills and all of a sudden I saw something swinging in one of the mango trees. Yes it was monkeys. It was a family of small macaques.
Sorry for no update over the weekend but I have been traveling and I had no access to internet. I promise I will tell you all about our “rickshaw” ride to the mountains and what we did up there. So hang in there or hang on to the back, your choice.
Did you know that up to 16 people can ride in a black rickshaw at once ?! Well, “in” the rickshaw also means hanging on outside in the back and on the sides. Incredible <:
Street life from the village of Varthur, Bangalore, Karnataka.
Posted on April 24, 2019
The drive to school goes through the small village of Varthur and it’s always fun with a narrow road which means you see a lot. By the way, by small village I mean small Indian village. Where I come from it would be a big city of 46.000 people.
Hope you enjoyed the little ride with me in my rickshaw and that you enjoyed the views from it. The smells I can’t help you with so I guess you have to imagine what it smells like until you yourself travels here to get the whole experience including the honking of the horns which is a big part of traffic in India.
See you soon <:
My journey into the soul of India.
Posted on April 22, 2019
I have just begun a new journey into the soul of India.This time based out of Bangalore, Bengaluru in the state of Karnataka in the southern parts of India. Totally different from the life in Gurgaon, NCR area Delhi.
I sure hope you feel like you want to hop on my auto rickshaw and ride along with me.
We live in an area filled with palm trees and flowers. Nice and green. Tropical, exotic and so beautiful.
Hope you like the start of my journey as much as I do. Please feel free to ride along.
See you later.
PS. Don’t know how much later though because I don’t have the internet up and running in my house yet !!!!
