The Anti Tobacco Day !

i always knew i will be able to leave smoking anytime i wish to, but now it seems a little tough given the lack of inspiration as to what purpose and benfit i will be serving by leaving it !
so for the time being lets forget bout NO SMOkINnG and sing...........

har fikra ko dhuen me udata chala gaya ...........

Now that i realize that its almost one year into this smoke thing, i decided to give a try to leave it ! But as of today, after having many attempts in the past several days, i m almost where i started and the conclusion is that unless i have peace of mind in my daily life, its not going to stop soon.

So finally i got it, the long awaited hospitalization !
OK i escaped being admitted but effectively i have been in bed for last 15 days, so it proves that Smoking is not so funny..at least more than 10 cigarrettes per day is certainly beyond my capacity. Only good thing about this situation is that i have not had a single cigarrette for 11 days now so the one year affair with the cigarrette seems to be over finally !

Sadly its been a habit now to have at least one cigarrette every day, i ruined all the efforts i had made to leave completely over a month.

Wet lands & Warm Vibes..

Lost in the labyrinth of the equity derivatives, I forgot to plan the Diwali vacation this year & got infinitely bored in the Diwali week. Anyway, it was over somehow & it was time to plan the Winter vacation. Being in my forties, these days I worry more about time than about bank balance. So a new tour operator & a new corner of India was selected for the winter vacation. Overnight journey by connecting flights was a terrible decision & the night spent at the airport has been stored in my memory for use whenever I may need to act miserable. The sleepless night was too slow to step aside & let us begin our journey to Kaziranga national park. Day 1 - Kaziranga Jeep Safari Kaziranga Jeep Safari Meghalaya literally means 'abode of clouds' & the clouds were ready to welcome us on the very first outing of the trip. There was no sign of rains on our journey to Kaziranga & so my raincoat stayed in the hotel just like the animals stayed away in their homes l...

in the God's own country..

          The quarterly alarm started ringing in my head from the beginning of September as 3 months had elapsed since my last tour of Goa & as per my personal new normal, a holiday was due. So after exploring all the suitable options, a package tour of Kerala offered by Yatra was booked.           The selection was done due to the variety of attractions available in the same trip - hill station of Munnar, Jungle safari at Thekkady, beach at Alleppey. This was my first experience of a package tour which was quite pleasant especially as all the daytime transportations were included - there was no night life to go for anyway. Day 1 - Kochi to Munnar                          About 100 km drive on narrow roads surrounded completely by trees takes you to Munnar from Kochi airport. As you get closer to Munnar, hills with tea plantations add to the beauty of the scenic ro...

Valley of the Gods via Queen of the hills

May the month of May never come again is the wish we make every year & yet it does come back with seemingly more power. The power we know we can only hide from - behind walls cooled by ACs/coolers or inside airconditioned cars. Staying out becomes bare minimum to save our skin but there comes a point when we miss the feel of the outside world & that makes an excellent excuse for a trip to a cool hill station. The wanderlust in me has become so overpowering that having no savings at all couldn't stop me from planning a summer escape away from the scorching heat. After the dull group tour of White desert, costly disappointment of Nainital-Corbett solo tour & distressing Jaisalmer group tour, I was extra cautious to avoid any fiasco this year. So the professional help & doubling of the budget was the right decision after all as the trip turned out to be a memorable one. May 7-9, 2025 Mock drills were the talk of the town all day & it was obviously the day one of re...
