• A whirlwind fortnight : Birthday, Death anniversary, Bangalore Lit-Fest and more

  

  I finally got time today to blog. Other than the quick post on Amritsar, which I began while I was still at home, in Dhaka, and only required to complete before publishing, I haven’t had the time or inclination to write. Don’t get me wrong. I haven’t lost my love for writing, but I’ve been…

  It’s kind of difficult to choose which flower you want to share when you’re in a country filled with flowers. I’m in Norway currently and the fun thing is that I’m not on holiday (I’m accompanying my husband who’s here on work). This means I get to be here and do things at my pace…

• FOTD: 290523 – Crown of Thorns
