The world as I see it...: Guest Post: Naren's Cross Country Road Trip
http://meanderingshots.blogspot.com/2014/05/guest-post-narens-cross-country-road_30.html
The world as I see it. My travel and photo blog. Friday, May 30, 2014. Guest Post: Naren's Cross Country Road Trip. I've always been a fan of road trips. Well, ever since I learnt how to drive. And in America, road trips are a way of life. A cross-country road trip from coast to coast was always on the cards, and when I had two weeks for the Christmas vacation, I knew it was the best chance to strike it off the bucket list. Dario, the guy from Argentina, the Polish girls and Ever. She told me it gets pre...

The world as I see it...: Chasing Cherry Blossoms in Japan - Hiroshima

The world as I see it. My travel and photo blog. Saturday, June 7, 2014. Chasing Cherry Blossoms in Japan - Hiroshima. Hiroshima shook me up. The peace memorial museum has this big picture of a pocket watch which shows the time of the bomb drop and these words -. A dragonfly flitted in front of me. And stopped on a fence. I stood up, took my cap in my hands,. And was about to catch the dragonfly. Human Shadow Etched on Stone. Orange Tori gate at Miyajima. Is the single most famous place to see at the isl...

The world as I see it...: Leh Road Trip - Tsomoriri
http://meanderingshots.blogspot.com/2013/01/leh-road-trip-tsomoriri.html
The world as I see it. My travel and photo blog. Tuesday, January 29, 2013. Leh Road Trip - Tsomoriri. All the aaloo parathas! The route is scenic as usual. But Tsomoriri beats the rest hands down. Just before the main lake, as our car weaved up and down the hills, we saw this small pristine blue lake peeking between the hills. That one view is probably what I'll remember about Leh for years to come. It was unbelievable! The lake before Tsomoriri. Looks like the Windows XP background! There is just one s...

The world as I see it...: Chasing Cherry Blossoms in Japan - Tokyo
http://meanderingshots.blogspot.com/2015/04/chasing-cherry-blossoms-in-japan-tokyo.html
The world as I see it. My travel and photo blog. Sunday, April 5, 2015. Chasing Cherry Blossoms in Japan - Tokyo. We took the last train out from Fuji and reached Tokyo late in the night. Was a hop skip away from the station. The hostel itself was located very conveniently and the rooms were very comfy. Super crowded Ueno Park. After happy hours :). What happened next is the harrowing rowing episode. We heard of Chidorigafuchi. I don't really remember the movie Love in Tokyo. But I did manage a Sayon...

A windy place: March 2010
http://windypulse.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Recently relocated to Washington DC. I decided to drive there instead of flying as I had done previously.(LA - Lansing) Since I was more comfortable now with long/boring drives than I was initially. I got into DC around noon finally. There is some stuff (PS3, Guitar etc.) that I have left over at Pittsburgh and so will be going back there again in a few weeks to pick those up. The next time around I plan to halt a while to get some snaps of some awesome landscapes.

Sunday, September 4, 2011. Over that week made a ton of friends in Istanbul and just walked around Sultanahmet a lot. Would I go back myself to Istanbul, YES for sure. Would I go there once I had a family, ummm.probably not. This post was typed up a while back and was in draft until now. Hence the delay. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A windy place: Taking flight
http://windypulse.blogspot.com/2011/06/taking-flight.html
Friday, June 17, 2011. Insomnia has been plaguing me for a while now especially with the trip getting closer and closer. Got done with some final packing/shopping yesterday evening. Never realized I had as much stuff as I did and even then considering just 1 checked-in bag which still has space in it I prob have a lot less stuff than most of my other friends who travel. I hope you know how to swim. Its a flood hereeeee. June 17, 2011 at 6:23 AM. Cant wait to get back. June 17, 2011 at 6:25 AM.

Wednesday, May 5, 2010. You know you own a G37 when. This has been lifted off of various forums, automag sections, comments etc. You know you own a G37 when. 1 You still don't see another one the road, and the one you do see makes you go wow! 2 When one of the things you hate most about your car is something as trivial as not having a tire pressure display in the TPMS. 3 you see a 2008 G35 sedan on the road and you wanna race them. 8 When you get your monthly car payment. 15 When you're excited to drive ...
