The Lake City, Nainital is situated in lap of Uttarakhand and it vies with several hilly destinations to secure a place in the   list of top 10 hill stations in India. Morning’s first sunray that peeps in from your room’s window, offers warmth and with it the beckons a good start of the day. As you pour yourself coffee and sip on it while your eyes gaze at the sprawling and sparkling lake with couple of boats sailing over it surrounded by yet to be brightened mountains; makes you feel that you are witnessing one of the paintings of Claude Monet. As per my observation most of the tourists come to Nainital to regain the lost peace of mind and the benevolent city never ever fails to provide just that! Since it is a popular hill station, it remains crowded and once you get out of your hotel you may feel that you have entered funfair. The best things to do in Nainital would be to shop, eat and sit beside the Lake! However, you have spent your hard earned money on this trip and it...

Dear Mumbai , How are you doing? Hope everything is fine with you on every front..Hope the monsoon started off well for you....Sitting here, I miss you very much Mumbai. I miss your topsy-turvy, your liveliness and the traffic too..I don't mind your unclean beaches and the smell of the ocean is what I now yearn for. I really miss Idli- Sambhar and pani -poori after my office . I miss the sound of a chugging train and the peak hour rush in local trains. I long for a weekend gateway to Mumbai and it's southern part....to walk along the Marine drive enjoying the sunset or sitting ideally at night to be with the restless waves. In Short,I miss life. As I count my days here, I am looking forward to travel to Mumbai and I know it will bring a big smile on my face. Looking forward to see you soon  Mumbai!!

If you are planning a combined trip to Darjeeling and Gangtok, I can surely help you out. As it is very confusing where to visit first.Darjeeling falls under West Bengal, while Gangtok is the capital of  Sikkim. It takes about 4 hours to reach one place from another. As per my experience, one should start with Darjeeling and then visit Gangtok…What say? The former is a picturesque hilltop, with unscathed beauty and interesting spots to boast of. Also, It is internationally renowned for its tea industry, as you all are familiar.Guys, if you are a foodie, trust me you will fall in love with the Chinese cuisines of the place. Do not forget to taste the yummy ‘Momos’, savor a hot cup of Darjeeling Tea and drink ‘Thentuk’, the hearty Tibetan soup. Darjeeling is an extremely beautiful city in itself, offering excellent scenic vistas of mountains, valleys, springs, lakes and colorful flora-fauna.It is known for its five T’s – tourism sector, tea gardens, trekking spo...

Their music,taste and abilities are very dynamic.If you listen to The Beatles,whether it be an album or their whole discography, there is something for everyone. They were incredible songwriters, unmatched by any group before or after. As time went on, The Beatles developed into an art rock band,more or less.They experimented new stuff, used their clout and fame to expand people's mind while making music that was interesting, catchy and very different from a lot of what was out there. I think the reason that made them so great was that they had an amazing level of talent (Whether that talent was inborn or the result of endless hours performing in Hamburg and Liverpool). What strikes me in all I have read is The Beatles is that all four of them always believed in trying new things and not repeating themselves. Even if you take all the hype of Beatlemania away you're left with a catalogue of depth and variety. They innovated and offer songs that still sounds fresh and vibr...

 I recently finished the reading of a 'PRINCESS' series by Jean Sasson and loved it!It is centered around the women of Saudi Arabia.It's a  very interesting read about veiled women in Saudi Arabia viewed through a western lens .   The story is very emotionally touching  and offered a disturbing look at what life is like for women in Saudi Arabia. Even the most wealthiest and most privileged women are not spared by the cruelty of the misogynistic and oppressive culture. Women are treated as property to be owned by men. From the birth,, they are treated as inferior to all the males.This is highlighted by the princess Sultana in the book as she was grown up with a spoiled younger brother.The Princess also describe that sexual abuse is also rampant in their world.Young girls are forced to marry the men of much old age.There are few incidents narrated in the book that are absolutely heartbreaking and terrifying. Not s...

I really never wanted to be a teacher and hated this professions.But everyone always does not get what they want. Call it fate;I ended up becoming a teacher after eliminating my corporate career. It may be one of those least paid professions in India,but the most respected one too. It now feels really good to be a teacher. The reasons being- The teachers have to teach the same class everyday but is a new challenge   the moment it begin. The minds of children are brimming with so many questions and doubts that no one can feel bored of this job Imagine meeting those curious minds who are the future creators all looking to meet you everyday..And it's a pleasure when parents come up to you ans ask how their child does.                                    SO YES ,WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE Right from 'Goood Moorninggg Ma'am' they sing a song at the beginning of the day to the happiest ' Hav...
