Arabian nights
As I looked out at the clear blue sea, the powder soft sand and the majestic mountains that lined the sea, I thought to myself that the best part of Oman is that it is natural and not man–made. I was visiting Oman for the first time and didn’t know […]
Asia’s World City
After a delicious and satisfying dinner at a trendy Asian restaurant just below the hotel, we set out for an aimless stroll. It was well past 11.00 in the night and everyone seemed to be just warming up. A few streets away from the hotel, I noticed that the shops […]

Jimmy Jimmy … Aaja Aaja…The old lady looked at me as she sang softly the words barely audible. I smiled at her and she smiled back pointing to the neatly packed figs, apricots, and other dried and candied fruits which she was selling. She offered me a taste of those […]
Nothing at all!
It was the fourth day of our short break in Singapore and we had visited just one place in Singapore so far, having skipped most of the customary popular sightseeing attractions. Time just flies when you are doing nothing! Four days of doing nothing seemed like the perfect solution for […]
