Life is a journey, enjoy travelling in it…

If you would have known me, you would have also known how big travel freak I am. I just love travelling to different unseen places - enjoying their unique lifestyle, dressing style, food and eating habits, distinctive slang and the ambience. Everything from cutlery to bed sheet changes depending upon how farther you travel. Sometimes this distinctiveness can cause hassles nevertheless it always feels memorable at the end.



I am happy not just reaching there, but I enjoy the drive to my destination, because that is what adds to the experience and amusement. For that you need to be equipped with proper gear like your favorite CDs, a comfy car with spare tire and jack, some beverages, ready to eat snacks and a camera. Listening to your favorite track in a car running at or more than 100 Km/h is something you can never experience in a metro city. Stopping and savoring the food of various dhabbas on the way, capturing nature’s beauty in your camera. All this adds to the overall enjoyment.





I am amongst those who prefer Mountains over Beaches and this time I wish to travel to Sikkim and Gangtok. Having heard so much of its beauty and cleanliness I am just waiting for my chance to experience it. Also I find myself a little inclined towards Buddhism and I want to see their Monasteries. Tibetian Market is another attraction for me, as being a girl shopping is always on the list. And rest I am not googling because I prefer word of mouth reviews. Moreover, the charm of exploring avenues is much more than pre-equipped knowledge for me.


But as anyone who has traveled would have realized, travelling is comfortable with advanced bookings, hence I trust only SKYSCANNER to do it for me. What you can book is not only your flights, but hotels and cabs too. After that long flight, you want to settle down first, take a short break to refresh your nerves before heading to the unknown.

Who knows when you will get a lifetime to traverse this path again? Experience most of it and have no regrets when you die. 


Happy travelling with family and friends, 
For the ones who rove together, reside together.

Being Woman…

Woman – a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a house maker and has many more names attached to her. Woman is a symbol of power and creation – one who is the bestowed with power to create life.
Woman is the reason for existence of every human being. Yet we underestimate her due to our chauvinist and irrational mind. But this discrimination will only provoke her to rise high rather than hide in a closet. That is why; we have a woman leading in every segment of society. From politics to business to sports, we have a woman leading everywhere.
She is well prepared from her ‘lessons learnt’ in past and is all equipped to face the ruthless world.
One day is all we need, to make ourselves heard, to bring about the change.
Enjoy being a woman, despite the unsaid ache.

Happy Women’s Day.

The real essence of Winning...


Winning is not about reaching the top. It’s about attitude - how you took things in your stride. Your actions or how you do things make you a true Winner and not just the labels you are tagged to.
 
Winning is important, but what’s more important is how you handle it. It’s much more difficult than it seems. Not everyone is able to handle win soberly, most of us tend to become proud and pompous about it.
 
Ever heard of Winner’s Curse? The winner's curse says that in an auction, the winner will tend to overpay. The winner may overpay either by bidding in excess or failing to anticipate the correct asset value, which happens due to winner’s ego.
 
There is a saying – “It’s lonely at the top” which indeed is true because one has to give up so much in order to reach there first. But my question here is – “Is it worth the sacrifices you make to reach there and end up being alone?” Why giving up everything for winning doesn’t make you feel happy and if it doesn’t then is it worth it? Ask yourself…  
 
For me, Winning is when I am happy and doing what makes me content without giving up anything. I am not going to be a part of any rat race, but reach there at my own sweet pace enjoying the journey which is called LIFE…

Play with it gal…

Who on earth wouldn't want to play with their hair to look ravishing each day? Doesn’t matter what age we are, we all want to try every possible hair style we see around or on television #DovePlayShyness, as we all have, keeps us from trying any of it.

“Why can’t I just be an actress who gets paid for wearing nice clothes and hairstyle?” This thought is on every girl’s mind. After all, who doesn’t like looking
gorgeous and why not? Every girl deserves the right to look her best. Not everyone can be a MISS UNIVERSE but everyone can be a PRINCESS of their own little homeland. And this isn’t a mammoth task as it seems, only you need to be a little bold and smart enough for it.


What you need is some basic awareness of yourself – your lifestyle, eating habits, stress you are prone to, and the environment around you – these factors contribute a lot to determine your hair type. Now depending upon your willpower you can chose to amend some or all of these factors to improve your overall health and subsequently your hair. After all, good health is a sign of good breeding.


And with nourished hair you can play as you wish. Twirl them, Curl them, Braid them, Color them, Straighten them or leave them open.


"Be what you want to be" with hair that complements your personality.
