Memories of Spiti Valley
I found my mecca – memories of spiti valley Some places touch the eyes…and some, the heart! It was a February night when I lay on my bed, checking my Facebook alerts, etc., and I came across this group called WeGoBondthat was conducting a 10-day trip to Spiti Valley. I have to confess, I had […]
Turkey – My Dream Destination
– Rupaparna Sarkar How I missed my flight and still made it to my Dream Destination As I signed the last document in office, with one eye on my watch, I realized I was going to miss my flight. I was flying to Bombay tonight and had a connecting flight to Istanbul in the early […]

Amritsar: Truly Punjabi
