TRAVEL
There was a time I loved traveling, both around the world and across India. I've travelled in the 'golden years' ... nostalgic words a Virgin cabin crew on a flight to London recently said when she heard that I first visited the UK in 1989, and almost a 100 times after. While going around the globe has been most beautiful, travelling the length & breadth of India is by far my favourite, absolutely fascinating. While a number of my travels have gone undocumented on the blog, there are still quite a few here. I am forever grateful for the experience.
