• Mumbai Diaries : Coffee, art and conversation

  

  The lockdown has been eased a little. We are allowed to step outside our communities and drive or take a walk. Its a relief to be set free after 70 odd days of complete lockdown. The changes brought about as a result of the pandemic are visible. We step out with a mask on. With […]

• Run up to Goa – Visit to the salon!

  

  I got my first gel manicure done last Thursday/ on the 7/11/19. If you’re thinking, “OMG! She’s so outdated. Its’ been around for the last 10 years or more!”, I don’t blame you. My daughter’s been coaxing me to do it since a really long time – for one, I don’t have the most enviable […]

• Mumbai Diaries : Finding my walking place

  

  I finally found a place to walk- one where I can do so all year round without worrying about the rains or traffic or pot-holes or people! This means I am closer to feeling settled. For a person who loves walking and loves nature, finding this place is as good as attaining nirvana. Since, I […]
