Berlin Diary
Today while leafing through the pages of our album found yet another trip waiting to be jotted down before it gets erased from our memory. A trip to Berlin where present and past are in sync once again. We went there for 3days- 2 nights stay by train on Easter weekend when sky was gloomy [...]
Milan shopping – trip came to end
Time to say Ciao, a presto (bye, see u soon) to Venice!!! Although we knew it might never be soon again. With happy mood we left for Milan from where we started our memorable journey. We boarded Euro-star for which we had to make advance reservation. Indisputably it was the best train we boarded in [...]
Venice at leisure
Next day, when we woke up, were very happy to see blue sky after two days of grey sky. Around 9.00 AM we came by boat to hot-spot St. Mark’s Square. St. Mark’s Basilica which is Byzantine influenced was too crowded to visit that time and unfortunately in evening we ran out of time and [...]
Half day at Florence and Venice

We walked towards Palazzo Vecchio (Piazza della Signoria) – city square adorned with fine arts. Basically, Florence is full of timeless beauty which can keep you captivated. Close to this square is [...]

This UNSECO heritage site is [...]
Remembering Belgium

Exploring…bits n bites II
Continuing from my last post I like to share a great experience I had. It was a sudden plan and I was tagged along with my instructor who in-turn was invited by a local Singaporean colleague after work for dinner. It was buffet for a fixed price at Marina Bay Shopping Mall. The crowd was [...]
Exploring…Bits n Bites
Singapore has so many ethnic cuisines to offer for its natives that you have to stay long to explore all the corners. Food is highly influenced by Malaysian, Chinese, Indonesian and none other but South Indian too. Even annually Singapore government organizes “Singapore Food Festival” in month of July. I was lucky enough to get [...]
Sweet teeth
From this Monday I moved to a corner desk as I put a new pair of shoes at work. The desk is nice but I lost my view from the window. Well, this post is not about my office and work. Our boss is sailing Far-East and we had a dinner at Marine Plaza Hotel [...]
