A Guide to Planning and Enjoying a Multi-generation Family Holiday

by Ankita Bhatia

Travelling in a large group of friends and family, to the hills of Himachal or Uttarkhand was the only way we travelled while growing up. I have memories of those road trips, stretching over a couple of days, when we packed food for the road, still made frequent pit stops at local dhabas on the highway, were never in a rush to reach our...

A Photo Essay of Madikeri, Coorg : 50 Shades of Green

by Ankita Bhatia

Kodagu, popularly known as Coorg is a beautiful part of Karnataka that I visited last year. We stayed in a picturesque town called Madikeri, which is the district headquarters. Framed by the Western Ghats, Coorg is rich and diverse in its flora and fauna, as we experienced up close, through a walk into its rainforests as well as a hike to Nishani peak, organised...

A Guided Walking Tour of Lodhi Art District with St+Art India

by Ankita Bhatia

Early this year, I stumbled upon Instagram photos of some very striking wall murals in Delhi’s Lodhi Colony, and as I traced their origins, I learnt that they were part of a focused effort by an organization called St+Art India, a non-profit that aims to bring the art experience outside of a traditional gallery, into public spaces, thereby making it accessible to all. The...

Travel isn’t always pretty – An eye-opening tour of Hebron, West Bank

by Ankita Bhatia

I stood in the Abraham Hostel lobby in Jerusalem, 15 min to 9 am, looking around the group. People sipped their coffees and the room was full with the casual air of small talk. This could have been any day and any tour, except that it wasn’t. In a few minutes, we would be on our way to Hebron – the most conflicted and...

A visit to Coorg would be incomplete without seeing a coffee plantation - from seeing how coffee is grown on these trees, plucked, dried, mixed and finally sold, it’s a super interesting experience whether you are a coffee lover or not. #coorg #coffee #coffeelovers #coffeeplant #coffeeplantation #vines #coffeeholic #plantation #plantationtour #indiatravel #indiatravelgram #indiatrip
One of the better things to buy while travelling is local spices. Can you guess what this is? #spices #indianspices #fresh #naturalfood #coorg #naturewalk #cookingspices #homegrown #homegrownspices #indiatravel #indiatravelgram #naturelovers #indiatraveldiaries
It’s wonderful to look back at something when you have tons of good memories. I can’t believe it will be 2 years of being back soon! Where has the time gone? Because everything is still so clear, I can still see the canals that I rode over everyday, the long summer days, the rainy windy autumns, the florist down my street, the shopkeeper who smiled at my broken Dutch, the warmth of my apartment, my home, the friends I left behind, the life I made. The life I think of often. And sometimes miss. While moving forward is inevitable, there is joy to be found in looking back on your life and it’s many experiences and seeing how far you have come, right? #amsterdam #canals #canalsofamsterdam #nostalgic #canalhouses #amsterdamcanals #amsterdam🇳🇱 #loveamsterdam #home #thinkpositive #lifelessons #travelblogger #travelgram #expatlife #amsterdam_streets
I hope to make a dosa as fine as this someday 😋😋. #dosa #southindianfood #foodiesofinstagram #breakfastofchampions #healthyeating #dosalove
