A shaky message from earth

As I felt the earthquake tremors today, and tried to rush down the stairs of my house, I thought about how the earth tries to send us a message which we often ignore...

Heads up for tails!

I love dogs and have quite a few friends who are dog lovers too. Here's a comic that expresses my feelings about dogs:


This comic is dedicated to all the dog lovers I know, as well as to Heads Up For Tails who invited me to their launch event last week. Here's a snapshot featuring the cute cupcakes and quotes from their store launch:


Happy petting, folks!

To Eat and Drink good is Travel made Brilliant



Being a food enthusiast, I have been lucky enough to try out delicacies from some of the most far-flung corners of the world. More than the taste though, it is how the food is presented that we remember or at least that is how
our Instagram feed remembers it. So, when Marriott Hotels  asked me what makes Travel Brilliant, my mind was fixed to one basic thing that none of the hotels seem to be taking care of. And that is truly marrying traveling and food. 

Elbert Hubbard rightly quoted, “No man needs a vacation so much as the person who has just had one”. This statement is probably truer, if you have had plenty of good stuff to eat and drink while you were on a vacation. It is probably the only time when we bother about nitpicking what we eat given how busy life generally has become. Therefore, one of the lasting impression of your vacation is what you ate and more importantly how. 

We are all powered by different fuels. Some of us love water, for the rest of us a cold bottle of Soda suffices. Some of us like something healthy like a milk product to accompany us, while for others, something refreshing like coconut water does the trick. The bottom line is we have diverse choices when it comes to what we want to carry when we travel. 

Wouldn't it be cool if the hotel already knew what rocks our boat and they could give us a well-designed goodie-bag which would contain all the necessary things that we need when traveling in the particular season in that city. Nobody knows better than the hotel staff what sort of things we might need. For example, a sunscreen in summer or a cold cream in winters could be included. Pack in a few wallet gums to keep the mouth fresh, a pack of snacks like Protein Bars, some wipes and other things that you might need, and it could well be the perfect thing to carry around as you explore new places. You simply need to unzip the bag to find the perfect things to refresh you and fill that hungry tummy while your eyes simply admire the city.
Marriott  Hotels would love to hear your opinions too on how you can make Travel Brilliant. 
Whatever your idea may be, when it comes to traveling brilliantly, go ahead and write to Marriott Hotels here. 
Who knows, yours might be the idea they like and choose to incorporate in this new journey. You could also win free nights stays.
