Caught the sun by its tail (and snapped a few pics for the 'gram) at Yelagin Island. ✨ (Also, the squirrels here are totally jealous of my hair. 🐿💁‍♀️)

P.S. The oaks and bushes know they're the best set designers. 🎭

Поймала солнце за хвост (и пару кадров для социалок) на Елагином острове. ✨ (А ещё тут есть белки, которые явно завидуют моим волосам. 🐿💁‍♀️)

P.S. Дубы и кусты в курсе, что они — лучшие декораторы. 🎭

The next destination you want go to is Barbados. #ocean #paradise #dreams #relax #amazing #beach #beautiful #vacation #travel #travelphotography #keycaribe #barbados #badgalriri (bij Barbados)

The Landscapes Of India

Welcome to the varied landscapes of India, my dear friends starting with the loftiest mountain range in the world called the Himalayas in the North to the grasslands of India in the South of Himalayan foothills, also spread across parts of central & western India.

We also have two big deserts in India.

A sandy, yellow desert called the Thar Desert/The Great Indian Desert in the North Western State of Rajasthan.

Then a salty desert or White Desert called the Great Rann of Kutch located in the western state of Gujarat.

The gorgeous backwaters of India are mostly found in the South Western state of India called Kerala.

Similarly the lush green tea gardens at Munnar is also located in the state of Kerala in South India.

The coastal areas with its gorgeous beaches spread in the West, East & South of India can be explored all round the year for some adventurous & fun filled activities.

Happy weekend, my dear friends & see you soon 🙌 🤗

I Visited The Second Longest Wall In The World

"There’s Magic In Forts"

In the topmost video clip, I can be seen walking at Kumbhalgarh Fort along with my husband while in the bottom most video clip, our wonderful guide can be seen talking to my husband, explaining about the glorious history of this place.

The Timeless Beauty

The Smell Of The Village Soil

Ever ventured into the countryside away from the concrete jungle of the city & town, away from dust & pollution, away from competition & rat race?

If not, then you must visit the villages of India. India is a land with varied landscapes dotted with hills, rivers, seas & oceans, backwaters, sandy & salty deserts, fields & farmland and forests too. In fact there's so much to explore!!

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This is a village up in the hills & mountains of India.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This village is in the heart of Thar desert/Great Indian Desert surrounded by sand where the only mode of transport is camel.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This village is down south in the state of Kerala where such backwaters & houseboats are a common sight and coconut trees on either sides.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This is a village in western India in the state of Goa where there is sea, farmland and some beautiful chapels & churches all over the place.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Another gorgeous village of India. This one is located in the eastern part of the country where the staple diet of the locals is rice & fish, hence glimpses of paddy fields & fisherman.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

This is how an Indian village looks like - grandma sitting in the courtyard; smiling faces of children coz they are genuinely happy & not just posing for the camera; huts with pet animals roaming freely; muddy tracks with greenery all around.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Also, you would be able to spot some very hardworking women; children & cattle venturing into the nearby forest and of course simple & meaningful activities like watching the sunrise, sunset or perhaps counting the birds flying by. Way better than those unstoppable video games played by our children most of the time.

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Welcome to a typical Indian village 🤗

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Wish you a fabulous weekend, my dear friends & see you soon 🙏🤗

Switching from shower to bucket could be a step towards saving water.

Would love to hear the different ways to save water in our daily lives.

Gorgeous beaches; finger licking seafood; dotted with temples & churches; covered with a carpet of greenery; known for its festivals, carnivals and the hospitality of the locals - all this & much more can be found in Goa, the smallest State of India which lies on the southwestern coast of this country.

Goa was a Portuguese colony for centuries, from about 1510 until 1961 bringing along Portuguese influence, Christianity & European culture to this state. The official language here is Konkani.

This video clip shows Kharvi dance being performed by the fishing community of Goa. The fishermen are overjoyed after a good catch at the sea. Hence they are celebrating with their families. Enjoy 😍

See you soon 🤗

THE ENCHANTING MANGANIAR

This lovely singer here is following our camel cart just as we are entering into the Thar Desert, Rajasthan in India. He is a Manganiar/Singer from Rajasthan.

In fact the Manganiars are a Muslim community who belong to the Thar desert. They are trained in singing and playing instruments from a very young age. The folk songs sung by them are passed down from generation to generation.

As of now, we are enjoying this performance thoroughly.

See you soon 🤗

THE TRAIN JOURNEY

Life's quite like a journey on a train - at each station or junction of our lives, we make new friends while some others leave us unnoticed.

Happy journey & see you soon 🤗

CHAI KAHANI/THE STORY OF TEA

This is one such magical drink which will warm you up if you feel cold; cool you down if you feel warm; add to your happiness if you are happy; cheer you up if you are sad.

At A Tea Parlour in Hyderabad, India

You guessed it right - tea is just not a beverage; it is an emotion that rules every mood, house, office, canteen, occasion - be it a condolence meet; someone's marriage; kitty party; spicy gossip; breakup; proposal or a get together.

Mint Tea

Masala Chai/Spiced Tea with Samosa (Triangular Pastry)

Whatever be the tea we are consuming (spiced or mint tea), meetings do become warmer & conversations juicer. Agree?

So, till we meet again on Friday over a cup of tea from yet another destination, keep smiling & see you soon 🤗

Ek Shaam Charminar Ke Naam/An Evening @ Charminar

Spent a beautiful evening at Charminar last Sunday. I participated in the 'Sunday Funday' programme out there.

It was such a refreshing evening; enjoyed my evening stroll too.....things sadly end, but memories last forever, agree?

Hampi: The Saga Of A Lost City

From the land of living rocks; a saga in stone; Hampi (a town in the South Indian state of Karnataka, India) is home to an ancient Indian dynasty called the Vijayanagara empire established in the mid 14th century where both art & architecture flourished.

Amongst the marvel of the ruins & the splendours of a bygone era, I am that soul who is busy chasing the sunrise & sunset- beautiful examples that both beginning & ending can be gorgeous.

See you soon 🤗
