Travel and Living

The other day i was sharing observations, over a cup of tea,  with a friend of my recent travel experiences. She commented "Sourav, Why don't you start writing a travel blog?". 

 

I paused for a second, took in a deep breath, sipped a bit of tea, and looked at her. I felt she had verbalized what had been on my mind since a few weeks. 

 

I said "Yes, you are right. I do feel the urge to write and share about my travel experiences."

 

While i travel I observe, hear, feel, and discover aspects of the world which stay with me. These include:

• differences from and similarities with my world view.
• artifacts and other demonstrations i see and stories i hear behind their existence.

Most of these stories get weaved out from conversations i pick up with people i encounter during these visits - people i normally would not come across in day to day life.  

 

These stories leave me at times intrigued and at other times surprised, but i feel alive and enriched by the end of a day filled with such stories.

 

Here's my humble and initial attempt to share some of these stories with you.
