East of America, there stands in the open Atlantic the last fragment of an ancient and vanished land. Worn by the breakers and the rains, and disintegrated by the wind, it still stands bold.” – Henry Beston What’s more exciting that visiting CapeCod in summer ? Since none of us were familiar with the area, [...]
Cliffwalk

On a warm sunny afternoon we headed towards Newport, Rhode Island. The idea was to spend a few hours on the ‘cliff walk’. A 3 1/2 mile walk along the Atlantic, by the mansions. My first impression seeing the ‘first beach’ was not positive. I’m sure, Newport must have many wonderful beaches, but first beach [...]

Located in central pennsylvania, State College, also called Happy Valley, was a place I frequented quite a bit last year. It’s basically a university town, housing Pennsylvania State University.

During one of my pointless searches on the internet, I came across “Golden Rock Stupa“, Kyaiktiyo in Myanmar. It caught my attention as I’ve never heard of it before. Legend has it that this stupa is balanced on a strand of Buddha’s hair. But seriously which law of physics can explain this phenomenon, of a [...]
Pacific Wilderness

I’ve always wanted to hike the westcoast trail. But lack of money, vacation time and company never let me. This trail was the reason why I wanted to visit British Columbia. But sadly I couldn’t visit the villages of Ucluelet and Tofino (where this trail is accessible) due to a flight delay which cut my [...]

This Christmas , I was in Killington, Vermont. I spent 3 days at a resort in Killington, with friends and learned how to ski. If you can sustain the cold, Vermont is a beautiful place to be in winters. We skiied almost all day for 2 days and explored the quaint little towns at night. The slopes [...]

It’s that time of the year when the weather is pleasant, everything around is bright and colorful and nature magnificent with brilliant hues. That was when six of us decided to travel on road to enjoy the fall colors. [...]
