Rajasthan Calling..

Leaving for Rajasthan tonight!

And this is going to be one unplanned trip, like most of my travels are. I am just going to land up in Jaipur, and then start figuring out when and where to go next. But I do know that, among other things, I would like to spend some time in Pushkar, and a few days in the desert region(Bikaner, Jaisalmer, or somewhere else). I am also hoping that while I have gone that far, I get to spend time time in Kutch and watch the dance of the flamingos.

As usual, I seldom update from the road, but I do hope to make a post or two now and then briefing on anything interesting that I come across.


The year ahead..

How much ever I tell myself not to plan things obsessively, dreams pop up and things shape up. 2008 will be a year of travel, a time to reflect, a year to pursue things in life that I have always wanted to do and make an attempt to get wiser, simpler and better. Time will tell on the realization of all these but I know that it is time to rejoice, may things work the way I want or otherwise.

Here is my travel wish list for 2008

* Rajasthan
* Cambodia
* Spiti Valley, and may be Leh/Ladakh
* A few monsoon journeys along the Sahyadri
* Valley of Flowers and surrounding region in Garhwal
* temples of Tamil Nadu – Madurai, Tanjore, KK. Missed then this year.

Obviously not an exhaustive one, but you know what happens when one tries to include the world. 🙂 Seems like a short list, but I know it will take a good lot of my time. The winter months are unplanned and seeing how far they are, I should let them be so.
