I believe in stopping work and eating lunch. ~L’Wren Scott If there hadn’t been women we’d still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends. ~Orson Welles
Trolls
Trolls are mythical ugly creatures depicted as either a giant or a dwarf. In the early 17th century, the term troll comes from Old Norse, Swedish and Danish stories. The first English use is from Shetland; the term was adopted more widely into English in the mid 19th century. Trolls are still used in my…
Gastronomic Delights
When you travel outside your country, much like outside your own city, you will realize the true meaning of migration. Food is a great leveler, and people who turn to greener pastures for their sense of success home food becomes comfort-food. In fact, you realize how local cuisines from far away lands…
Up In The Air
I’ll be out of my mind and you’ll be out of ideas pretty soon. So let’s spend the afternoon in a cold hot air balloon. Leave your jacket behind. Lean out and touch the tree tops over town. I can’t wait to kiss the ground wherever we touch back down. ~Owl City, Ocean Eyes

No Wrong Turns
There are no wrong turns, only unexpected paths. ~Mark Nepo Life is incredibly unpredictable, and it shakes you out of your sleepwalking slumber when you least expect it. We tend to become so familiar with routes we take everyday, that be it night or day, you’d know exactly where to go, and how to reach…
Private Haven
To escape and sit quietly on the beach – that’s my idea of paradise. ~Emilia Wickstead
Alcohol-free Beer
The last few days I spend taking in the sights and sounds of Dubai (locally refers to as the capital of Kerala). Being a theological state that embraced Islam as its official religion, finding alcohol in UAE is rather difficult. However there is root beer available that you can enjoy, sans the addiction or high….
