Story time! #SundayMood As a child I dreamt of b

Story time! #SundayMood As a child I dreamt of becoming a veterinarian. I’d treat all of my stuffed animal toys, check them on a weekly basis and made sure they are happy and hearty. But then again, I also wanted to become a journalist, a doctor and a pilot (though years later I bagged one haha @kungfupandya_ 😬) That love for animals grew stronger by the day. And I have my family to credit for it all. Everyone in my family has a tradition of feeding strays.🤓 Whenever I saw my Nani make the gorgeously puffed up rotis I’d jump up to eat them hot! But she snapped back “this ones for the cow.” And next ones always for the dogs! I didn’t understand why, at least back then I didn’t. 😅 Evening walks with my nana (who we all call Bauji) were my second favourite thing about school breaks. First being his epic historical tales! He always had the best of stories from the pages of history, which he narrated with all the theatrics. But that’s a post for another time. 👻 These walks would end up at the “bada mandir” (big temple). After the darshan I’d dash outside, to eagerly see if my friends are there. And well, they always were! 100X more excited than I was. How can I tell? Their wagging tails always gave it away! 🐶 And now, not a single day goes by without preparing #DoggyMeals in my kitchen. #ThankYouNani 🥰 These furry babies always spot me from a far and come running. Sometime for the meals, sometimes for a scratch, but mostly for the love! 💕 Isn’t it a great feeling? Knowing someone out there loves you? One such super human @gargivairagare with her team at @risefortails is touching many furry lives out there. If you also have a love for strays show them some support. 🤗 #randomactofkindness #AnimalLover #FeedAStray #OfMilesAndMusings

A far away valley, 3 crazy girls, no other human i

A far away valley, 3 crazy girls, no other human in sight- does it get better than this?! I don’t think so 🤓 Remember the time we rolled down that hill in #GanteyValley #Bhutan? 🤣 @akankshaoza with her 153783 layers of clothing dying from cold but her spirits as high as 5 bottles of #Zumzin 🤭
and @harshita_shah with her “ye ladkiyan marwayengi mujhe” look on her face 👻 Let’s not forget our guide, Tashi, shaking his head in disappointment and then taking out some betel leaf to chew on. Knowing he can’t stop our crazy, even if he tried! 😏 #SorryNotSorry Remember that dip in the river oza? (That’s another story to tell!!) Annnnd me! Making sure every moment is captured. Just so that I can look at them 2 years later and laugh a little louder. Because what we live for? If not for such moments with your loved ones? 💜💙💚 #OfMilesAndMusings

We read a lot of #books! Some we never finish, some are great read and then there are those gems! 💎 You know, the books that don’t only give you an escape, but also change you on a deeper level. 🙆🏻‍♀️ Beyond the sky and the earth (by Jamie Zeppa) is a whole different experience. This coming of age story made me #VisitBhutan! 💕🤗 Full #Review of the book on my blog! Link in the bio. 😬 If you are looking for a “lift me up” I highly recommended #Reading this book 📖
And even if you aren’t, this is the best way to experience #Bhutan while you are locked down. 🤦🏻‍♀️ #GoCoronaGo Leaving this quote from the book for you all: “Anyone can live anywhere. You think you can’t in the beginning but then you do”- Jamie Zeppa _____________

“I love how the landscape gives the impression o

“I love how the landscape gives the impression of vast space and intimacy at the same time: the thin brown line of a path wandering up an immense green mountainside, a plush hanging valley tucked between two steep hillsides, a village of three houses surrounded by dark forest, paddy fields flowing around an outcrop of rock, a white temple gleaming on a shadowy ridge. The human habitations nestle into the landscape; nothing is cut or cleared beyond what is requires. Nothing is bigger than necessary. Every sign of human settlement repeat the mantra of contentment: “This is just enough.”

This letter is to you. The you that’s had a rou

This letter is to you. The you that’s had a rough week. The you that seems to be under constant storm clouds. The you that feels invisible. The you that doesn’t know how much longer you can hold on. The you that has lost faith. The you that always blames yourself for everything. To you.
You are incredible. You make this world a little bit more wonderful. You have so much potential and so many things left to do. You have time. Better things are coming your way, so please hang in there. You got this. You can do it!

*Hair flip* *eeeeepppp*
Guess what?! The good folks of India Chalo and myself recorded a podcast together! Aaannnd, this was my first podcast 😻 I am talking about my journey through Kerala, think of it is a virtual tour #VisitKerala. Because that’s all we can have given the situation. #GoCorona 🤪
Truth be told I was super scared! While I can write my heart out, I was never a confident speaker. NEVER! Back in school I ran off the stage when I was asked to deliver my first speech. 🙈And later on my little lover named anxiety grew worst. 😣
Buttt! I am glad I recorded this podcast. It was a true darr k aagay jeet hai moment for me. I am definitely a lot lot more confident now. So do me a favour and show your girl some love now! Listen, like and share my first podcast. (First of many 🤞) Also while you are at it, read my blogs (link in bio) #OfMilesAndMusings

In my head, I am chilling here with a sheesha, a refreshing beer, and @beyondmeat burger. Where are you at?

Those of you who know me, know that I am an #anima

Those of you who know me, know that I am an #animalactivist. I may not have my own NGO to prove that, but I have in many ways shown my support to these beautiful souls. After all we don’t own the planet, we belong here.
I guess the credit goes to my father. I remember he used to cook up a bed time story every night. 🙇🏼‍♀️ He never read me a book, that’s boring! Instead my father and I would go on an adventure every night! ✨ An adventure full of dancing dolphins, giant trees that sung, friendly wolves, talking birds, vast ocean. A world purely made by him just for us.
One day the world was interrupted by Sher Khan🐯! The 4 year old in me got scared and demanded it being shot!
To which my father replied “No! Sher khan is just as scared as you are! He is just a baby!”
At first I was confused, but I let my father guide me through the journey.
So that night we helped little Sher Khan find his mother who was just so graceful and taught me a thing or two about life. they licked us good bye and occasionally visited us in our adventures. 🥰 I am 28 now, but I still believe in that magical realm my father created for me. 🤓@kungfupandya_ and I visited @ranthamborepark early this month, we went their with zero expectation to spot a tiger. After all it’s the wild!
We were lucky to have spotted tigers in all 3 safaris. Did I skip a beat? Yes sure as hell I did! I almost couldn’t breath at the first sighting. I may have gasped but kept quiet.
But alas! There are all sorts of humans some started screaming bizarre things like “mata rani dikh gayi” others said “Papa video lo school mein dikhaunga” another one said “ Bhaiya dekh tho liya, ab baki ka park dekha do!” And a grown up also threw away chewing gum wrapper out of the vehicle! 😩 What did the the Tigress do? She ignored the baboons aka stupid humans and walked in all her might paused to look around and let out a roar, the true queen of the land. She was graceful, intelligent and almost mythical, just like in my fathers bed time stories. 💁🏻‍♀️ #OfMilesAndMusings
