Squirrels talk too :D

After Monkeys and Geese….now I imagine my squirrels talk šŸ˜‰

1

Can you smell them….?? I can smell them…. Can you smell them yet?

2

Yea man… I can smell them too.. But I don’t see them… Do you see them??Ā 

3

No… I don’t see them… But I can feel they’re fast approaching………

4.1

O my GOD ! They’re HERE…!!! Alert everyone!

P.S :

In near future (April end) I am writing a series of ā€œun-posted lettersā€ on my blog and inviting guest posts for the same.

The compilation of this would have letters you never postedā€¦the ones you wrote/wanted to write to your mother/teacher/neighbor/boss/husband/friend/ex but did not.. There is no need for names, you can address them to ā€œan inspiring soulā€ or ā€œa long lost friendā€ or ā€œlove of my lifeā€..

Leave a comment in case you’re interested to be a part of this.

When it snows in India..

India is crowded place.

We have a crowd of natives which has now crossed a billion plus we also cater a million tourists every year.

Undoubtedly, it is difficult to maintain world-class standards when a certain handful of population still lives below poverty line.

But nobody seems to mind it now-a-days. Everyone enjoys a hill station for a week and pack their bags and go off.Ā Only the indigenous people of such places can complain about the crowd or the living standard because they see everyday – year after year.

Tourists

The northern states of India are snow-clad for the months November-February but generally have tourist inflow all throughout the year. During winters the main attraction is the snow. And in summer when rest of the country is suffering from soaring temperature these tourist spots provide a perfect get-away.

Not only do these states attract high number of Indians on a summer vacationĀ but tons of foreigners. I assume watching snow fall is an experience people like me crave to have in this same life time.

If in India, there are a certain places one must definitely visit.

Reaching out through blogs : My article in the leading newspaper of Middle-East

Since I started working as a part-time free-lance writer for Gulf Times, life seems to have taken an exciting new turn..

After the article for working women in Qatar, I have now written about bloggers in Qatar. In this country, blogging is still not considered as a “cool” or beneficial way of social interaction and with my article I try to clear those myths and misconceptions.

Read it here –

Although Gulf Times did not include photos of all the amazing bloggers I got in touch with, I will attach their photos here as a token of thanks for their contribution.

Hey, I heard some tourists came up here. Is it true???

IMG_1630

Yea yea I can see them. They think weā€™re antique! HA. šŸ˜‰

IMG_1636

Really? You want a pic of me so badly? Canā€™t you just look in the mirror and use some ā€œnewā€ ā€œmodernā€ technology of yours and visualize how you would look if you were born say, a billion years ago?

IMG_1637

Okay, donā€™t be so mean to them. Theyā€™re all our brothers. They even got us some food. Winters are approaching; it would be good to add all that to our stock.

IMG_1652

Fine! Weā€™ll be nice to them. But, hey, I am not doing any monkey dance for them. A picture is the max I can offer and that is how far I am going for that last banana.

Did you say it was the LAST banana????? šŸ˜
