I just finished reading this historical Tamil novel, dated back to 1960’s written by Kalki R Krishnamuthy, one of the pioneer novelists in TamilNadu.

The train journey from Bangalore to Kulasai was tiresome, as the train delayed by 4 hrs, cos of some goods train derailed that night. But, when i reached this village, you guys should believe me,...

(h)AirTravel and Fuel Hike… in India
Can i call myself as a great victim for the fuel hike? Even if you say NO… Lemme call myself a victim. It all started in May, when we started planning for a trip to Gujarat and Rajasthan in August 2008. After discussing with fellow photographers of Ahmedabad and few shutterbugs from Bangalore, we decided to explore only Rajasthan in a span of 11 full days (August 14th to August 24th, convincingly planned to combine the Independence day holidays).
