Kenya: 4 Days Itinerary

My motive to plan the trip to Kenya was to click wildlife. As much as I wanted to see the big cats and the flitting deer, I wanted to click them more. I wanted to make up for the poor quality images that I had clicked in Kruger National Park, South Africa. Wildlife was the only thing on the agenda! Not once did I contemplate visiting the beautiful beaches of Mombasa or diving in the...

Ankur and I figured out that hosteling is great way to travel a little late in life… Just about one year ago! Since then, we have made friends with some really interesting people… students, social workers, artists… people brimming with creativity and friendliness… people who were as keen to know about us and India as we were to know about them and their homeland! We now have friends from Columbia, Argentina, Croatia, Australia …from every...

Reykjavik was our base to explore Iceland. Out of six nights in Iceland, we spent four in Reykjavik and two on the South shore of the country. We would hop on to a day tour bus early in the morning and get back in the evening… perfect medley of exploring the untouched country side and enjoying the lively nightlife. We couldn’t spend much time exploring Reykjavik itself… just a day! The next time we are...

Vegetarian Food in Iceland

What were we expecting when we set off for Iceland… Would we get vegetarian food? Would people know what vegetarianism is all about? Would vegetables be as expensive as gold in a land that is covered with ice, hence, is called Iceland? Icelandic food includes sheep’s head, ram’s testicles, shark and whale …and all kinds of fish….none of this sounded appetising… would we have to eat any of these? Would we have to force ourselves...

Back in 2010, visiting the Kruger National Park in South Africa was our first tryst with the bush. What an experience…we saw a pride of twelve lions feasting after a kill! We would have loved to share the pictures with you, but we have none. It was the first time that we had held a DSLR and over 75% of the pictures were out of focus. We would have possibly done a better job had...

A few years ago, Ankur and I, both were avid Himalayan trekkers. Standing at the foothills of a Himalyan peak is a humbling experience. One tends to feel puny in front of Nature’s grandeur. A similar feeling overwhelmed us when we ‘got introduced’ to the Vatnajokull glacier… a feeling of being an insignificant nothing in the bigger scheme of things. Have you ever felt that way…. like a tiny speck in the vastness of the...

Northern Lights Tour from Reykjavik

With the little aurora watching experience that we have had till date, we can safely say that Reykjavik is amongst the most ‘comfortable’ locations to watch the Northern Lights i.e Aurora Borealis. All you need to do is drive for about 30 minutes, away from the city to lose the city lights…and watch the lights dance…provided the night is clear and the forecast is positive. If you fancy something exotic, drive further, close to a...

We weren’t sure that we wanted to do the Golden Circle tour…it just sounded too touristy! Everyone who goes to Iceland does this tour. Well, if it’s so popular, there has to be something special about it. Also, this was the only tour that would take us to see the geyser. I could not miss that! It was an item on the bucketlist! Hence we decided to hop onto a Grayline bus and figure out...

Visiting Rio during the Carnival time has long been on our list. We might get lucky to do it in 2016…who knows what the future holds and what pleasant surprises life can spring at you! Rio is far… the journey from India is long and expensive. Little did we know that until we get to Rio, there are other festivals that could be as much fun and are easier to get to! Thanks to Holiday...
