Lonar Crater

One place that I have had on my bucket list for a very very very long time but the distance always played a big role until the 17th December 2022 when we drove down to Aurangabad to see the Ajanta Ellora caves, and Lonar happened to be just 150kms from Aurangabad. We had to go …

Tamhini Ghat!

From Mumbai to Bangalore (Day 2)

On 30th June 2022, we woke up to a wet Kolhapur Excitingly we got ready (I mean, isn’t the whole point of doing the ride was to do it in the monsoons?!), and drove around the quaint not-so-little Kolhapur city passing through the Kolhapur train station And another beautiful structure (which I think was their …

Kaas Pathar and more!

Pandemic travels have been quite rare, and the rare ones have been quite stressful. Yet being double vaccinated meant that we wanted to once again feel the "freedom" our soul felt, what can easily be thought of as, once upon a time.
