<br />
We live in a generation where there there are so many hair products to choose from and each one looks better than the other, doesn't it?<br />
Spoilt by choice, how do you take the right decision?<br />
<br />
Well, let me make this a bit simpler for you by sharing my review of the Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil that I recently used.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V100YXRUJZY/VdFxaK9q2qI/AAAAAAAABv4/A6q35Hv6q3w/s1600/vatika-enriched-coconut-hair-oil.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V100YXRUJZY/VdFxaK9q2qI/AAAAAAAABv4/A6q35Hv6q3w/s320/vatika-enriched-coconut-hair-oil.jpg" width="245" /></a></div>
<br />
What makes <a href="https://www.mybeautynaturally.com/beauty-care-products/pages/hair-product/3/-vatika-coconut-oil">Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil</a> different from the others?<br />
<br />
Here's the answer-<br />
<br />
With the triple power of Henna, Amla and Lemon, Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil saves your hair from problems like dandruff, split ends, and hair fall thereby giving it volume and shine that make your tresses gorgeous.<br />
<br />
Lets analyse the 'problem- solution' game a bit further-<br />
<br />
Hair Problem No.1- HAIR FALL.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zZ9ByS7Vjas/VdF1vYFWL3I/AAAAAAAABwE/3XbkJl8QEDg/s1600/hair_fall.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="154" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zZ9ByS7Vjas/VdF1vYFWL3I/AAAAAAAABwE/3XbkJl8QEDg/s320/hair_fall.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
What solution does Dabur Vatika enriched coconut hair oil offer for this problem?<br />
<br />
It Promotes Hair Growth.<br />
-> It has Vitamin K, Vitamin E, and Iron which not only helps in producing a healthy scalp but also penetrates into the hair, providing the needed nutrition and allowing the hair to become stronger.<br />
Stronger hair will grow faster and stay the length you want without breaking.<br />
<br />
My experience - Now, my hair look shinier and have no breakage whatsoever. After all, no one likes losing hair everytime they grab a comb.<br />
<br />
Hair Problem No. 2- DANDRUFF<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-sKd6OfTffwc/VdF4Y28cbPI/AAAAAAAABwQ/bHrg8Y3oHnc/s1600/dandruff.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="154" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-sKd6OfTffwc/VdF4Y28cbPI/AAAAAAAABwQ/bHrg8Y3oHnc/s320/dandruff.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Solution<br />
<br />
Locks The Moisture In And Nourishes Hair Follicles<br />
-> When you use this coconut oil to softly massage your scalp, the blood circulation will increase. This will ensure you have a stronger hair follicle that is going to enable stronger hair growth and better looking hair, since the hair follicle will be at its peak strength.<br />
It'll also help lock in the moisture, while keeping external damaging elements from harming your hair. Win-win, ain't it?<br />
<br />
My experience- After using Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil, dandruff has been completely washed off my hair. Earlier, all my clothes used to have white particles of dandruff on them and the public embarrassment that followed..Phew! But now..my confidence is on an all time high! YAY!<br />
<br />
Hair Problem No. 3- Split Ends.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TUJZKgmIF0I/VdF4vv9kW5I/AAAAAAAABwY/O7s8efacUk8/s1600/split_end.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="154" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TUJZKgmIF0I/VdF4vv9kW5I/AAAAAAAABwY/O7s8efacUk8/s320/split_end.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Solution </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Adds Strength To Your Hair -> The healing characters present in coconut oil penetrate in the hair follicle and ensure that the strand of hair is stronger. Thus this encourages better hair growth and you don't have split ends. With anti-bacterial and anti-fungal nature, coconut hair oil provides your hair with a natural defense against these ailments and prevents further damage to the hair.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My experience - Split ends restricted the growth of my hair and I had started dreaming of long hair almost accepting the fact that this shall never become a reality for me. But then Dabur Vatika Coconut Hair Oil happened, and look, my hair are growing and how!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
We are living in an era where we have no time to even sit down for a 30 minute dinner with our family, much less for grocery shopping, that too in our crowded Indian market places and the wear and tear of your energy that comes along with it, Phew!<br />
<br />
Well, if you fit the bill for what I said above and are suddenly feeling a tad bit tired already just reading about it, then don't be because you are not the only one. I plead guilty too!<br />
<br />
Working like crazy at the office throughout the week, 10-8 and then partying or sleeping like a mad fellow on weekends, time just passes by in the blink of an eye and I am left with no money or energy to drag myself to the grocery store, Manually search for all the items I need, put them in a shopping bag, survive the maddening rush, wait in long queues at the billing counter and then carry the heavy bags back home.. I AM DEAD ALREADY! ARGHHH!<br />
<br />
Tired, frustrated, agitated ..I decided to google about ways to reduce my pain of grocery shopping!<br />
That's when I discovered this app called '<a href="http://shop.peppertap.com/welcome">PepperTap</a>' which lets you buy groceries online and it's delivered on to your doorstep the same day, actually within 2 hours. How cool is that?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<b><i>Why 'PepperTap' ?</i></b><br />
<br />
<a href="https://twitter.com/peppertap">PepperTap</a> is changing the way people buy groceries. They are replacing your visits to the supermarket with a few taps on the phone. It was started in November 2014 serving a limited area in Gurgaon. Owing to the accurate and on time deliveries, it's now available throughout the city. Woot!<br />
Simplicity and effectiveness are the key drivers of their products and services.<br />
Moreover, PepperTap believes buying groceries online should not be just for early adopters and they strive to make their service more accessible so anyone can free up their time to do what they love.<br />

<br />
Hi!<br />
Did you know?<br />
There are hardly a few things in this world I love the way I love my long hair.<br />
Why? Because, 4 years of intensive care and pampering is what went in to make my hair longer, thicker and the center of envy for one and all, and rightly so.<br />
<br />
It was all going great until one day when I went to the salon for a beauty treatment, the hairdresser brought to my notice that my hair were losing their shine and I had started to look like a witch.<br />
YES, my hair had become frizzy and were falling at an abnormal speed which literally made my stress hormones rush.<br />
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
What makes Dabur Vatika Coconut ++ Hair Oil better than others?<br />
<br />
-> It helps in deep conditioning your scalp.<br />
-> Promotes hair growth.<br />
-> Nourishes hair follicles<br />
<br />
Price-<br />
<br />
It is priced appropriately at just Rs. 42/- , hence it ain't heavy on your pocket but sure is a pleasure for your hair.<br />
<br />
Usage -<br />
<br />
-> Massage Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil onto your scalp thoroughly.<br />
-> Allow the oil to penetrate through your scalp by leaving it for an hour.<br />
-> Rinse your hair thoroughly and notice a healthy shine instantly.<br />
<br />
They say a picture speaks a thousand words.<br />
Thus, sharing my before and after using Dabur Vatika Coconut ++ Hair Oil pictures.<br />

It was a morning affair and as expected I had plans to get dressed luxuriously. My dress was perfect with best fit heels but then I came back to my misery of uneven skin tone, black patches, tanning and facial hair. It was easily my worst nightmare!</span></span></p><p class="s4" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span class="s3"><span class="bumpedFont15" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">What’s more, not only did I lose interest in decking-up but it certainly did throw my self-confidence off track as well. And it’s like the story of every time, whenever I am so excited to deck up and look my pretty best these imperfections make me all demotivated.</span></span></p><p class="s4" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span class="s3"><span class="bumpedFont15" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">This is the story or problem most of my readers send me and I myself have faced this. It’s like the skin has lost its natural-ness and has become this dull, sad and unattractive. So I researched and found out that our skin over time loses its original texture and this is because it loses oxygen or doesn’t get the right amount of oxygen that the skin needs over a period of time. </span></span></p><p class="s4" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span class="s3"><span class="bumpedFont15" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Surprised right... Oxygen for lungs possible but oxygen for healthy skin?? Let me explain this below-</span></span></p><p class="s4" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span class="s3"><span class="bumpedFont15">Think of a scenario where you are standing in a place where there is lot pollution, dust, heat and dirt. Now try and breathe freely in this, you aren’t able to, right? This is because all of these elements take away our capability to breathe. Similarly our skin also breathes from within and pollution, dust, heat, dirt etc. take away its ability to breathe. </span></span>Hence, our skin needs oxygen. </span></p><p class="s4" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">But how does one get oxygen and from where?</span></p><p class="s4" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><span class="s3"><span class="bumpedFont15">This is where after my research I found that the method to revive is bleaching. It is like adding a natural layer to our skin to bring out the original state of the skin. But do all bleaches provide such benefits and which bleach is good for each skin type. Not to forget if not bleached correctly or if a wrong bleach is used, it can lead to a disaster.

<div style="text-align: left;">
It's high time to breathe in the air of change, ladies, It's time to let men handle their own work like we do ours. No one is superior or inferior to the other anymore.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We ourselves need to be the change if we wish to see it around us.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It's starts with ME, with YOU, with US!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So, the next time your man complains of why the laundry isn't done, tell him you aren't his servant. Be polite, be respectful, be lovely as you always are.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Tell him if he wears his clothes himself, he can clean it himself too. What else did God give him those two hands for? </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And Men, stop acting like God because you yourself know, you aren't one.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We all are humans and it's time to behave like one too.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Once men and women together start doing laundry and other household chores, the workload falls to half and there's more time for drives, movies, good food, dates and fun.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Won't you like it that way?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You sure would.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So, let's march forward and make gender equality in every aspect our prime motive, our responsibility and I promise you that day ain't far when we'll achieve it like one happy family of proud Indians!</div>

Then why is Laundry only a woman's dare?<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here's what came up from <a href="http://www.rewardme.in/tag/ArielShareTheLoad" style="background-color: white; color: #b85b5a; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank" title="Ariel">Ariel</a>'s recent survey conducted by AC Nielsen-</div>

<br />
Yes, Being a lady this disturbs me.<br />
What about you?<br />
<br />
Why?<br />
<br />
Why not, is what I say.<br />
We talk about gender equality. We talk about giving everyone equal opportunities and work, we talk about Indian women coming at par with men but everything falls apart when it comes to the household chores.<br />
Men doing laundry in India is a strict 'No-No'. Why? Because it hurts their ego.<br />
While women are drying clothes, men are relaxing themselves on the couch having beer on a lazy Sunday morning. WOW!<br />
And that's how India will reach the stage of gender equality? Kudos. Huh!<br />
<br />
Let me tell you a short instance that I recently encountered at a friend's place.<br />
<br />
So it was one of our vacation weekends when my friend's father got up in the morning and started shouting at his wife for the laundry wasn't done on time and the shirt that he was supposed to wear for a party that evening was still dirty.<br />
To this his wife softly replied, 'We have a washing machine and I was really busy all this while. If it's this important to you, why didn't you do the laundry yourself? I mean it's no rocket science, right?'<br />
And then Uncle got infuriated and screamingly left the house.<br />
<br />
This made me think, Would the world end if he would have himself taken up the responsibility of doing the laundry?<br />
<br />
This is a big problem that still awaits a solution.<br />
<br />
Look,<br />
Washing machines have made doing laundry 10* times easier, what we need to do is tell our men to stand up for themselves, and show some support in doing the work.<br />
So when we get together to work, be it inside the house or outside, is when India will see a new light, the light of equality where men and women equally march towards success.<br />
<br />
So Ladies, raise your voices. It's time to speak up. It's either Now or Never.<br />
<br />

Being an Indian and not being excited for Diwali is IMPOSSIBLE.<br />
<br />
So here I am sharing my love for the festival of lights, the festival of colours, of brightness and of good winning over evil.<br />
<br />
Being a christian my family has never been into celebrating Diwali the traditional way, but that doesn't mean we don't soak in the awesomeness. Of course we do.<br />
This is when neighbors, friends, and classmates come into the frame.<br />
<br />
Ever since school days to college times, one thing hasn't changed- Celebrating Diwali with family. Because there is nothing like #GharWaliDiwali. I repeat, NOTHING. I used to be excited the whole year for Diwali vacations as I would be going to Indore, my hometown where all of us cousins will party on like there's no tomorrow.<br />
Days before Diwali, we used to plan and prepare for a new rangoli design, each day. Frankly, I am not much into drawing so I used to let my cousins draw while I messed it up by filling colours in it. Um, okay.<br />
*Embarrassed*<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vNkM7lLva5k/VELQKAk_YLI/AAAAAAAAA-g/F3Ynw_xdSf8/s1600/IMG-20131103-WA0002.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vNkM7lLva5k/VELQKAk_YLI/AAAAAAAAA-g/F3Ynw_xdSf8/s1600/IMG-20131103-WA0002.jpg" height="225" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
P.S- All credits of making this rangoli go to my cousin sister Dorin and I am *just* posing. Okay, you can hit me now :P<br />
<br />
As Diwali approached, our ears would become more efficient on hearing the doorbell ring bringing in lots and lots of sweets from neighbours and friends. Acting sober in front of them and attacking on the sweets once they went has always been our hobby, you bet!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--q_zQoU7bJs/VELVdDuLNgI/AAAAAAAAA-4/1fYaRj4lyPg/s1600/IMG-20131104-WA0002.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--q_zQoU7bJs/VELVdDuLNgI/AAAAAAAAA-4/1fYaRj4lyPg/s1600/IMG-20131104-WA0002.jpg" height="225" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
In the blink of an eye, Diwali arrives!<br />
Everyone around is dressed up in glittery new clothes, heaps of makeup, the sound of crackers busting your ears and oh! the poor dogs are crying somewhere in a corner.<br />
Nothing much has changed over the years except for the impact of social media.<br />
Hence, these days we are glued to campaigns, contests and sending 'virtual' greetings on Diwali rather than moving our ass out to celebrate in reality. But, Hey this is fun too.<br />
<br />
My favourite Diwali moment ( after bumping into food ) is dressing up in a traditional attire and collecting compliments like flowers. Oh, how I love them!<br />
*Perks of being a girl* HAHA!<br />
<br />
This is how I was dolled up last year during Diwali, good no?<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Following the tradition, I shall be enroute hometown yet again this time to celebrate Diwali with my extended family.<br />
Lots of pictures shall be uploaded, so stay tuned ;)<br />
<br />
But hey, Did you check out the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQ7lMDWJOXA">PepsiCo #GharWaliDiwali</a> campaign video as of yet? Then do it now.<br />
This made me so nostalgic reminiscing old times showing how our lives have changed over the years.<br />
Day by day everything is the same but when you look back it's all different.<br />
Don't let time slip by. Celebrate this Diwali with your loved ones. Money can wait, time won't.<br />

<br>
Never imagined my love for WWE will one day take me to experience the thrill LIVE in MALAYSIA.<br>
But as they say, Dreams do come true. Yeah they do. Mine did.<br>
<br>
It all started in the first week of October with Ten Sports announcing me as the #No1WWEfan and I was enroute Malaysia to live my dream.<br>
<br>
Let's begin our journey!<br>
<br>
<b><i><u>9th October 2014-</u></i></b><br>
Thursday - T2 Terminal, Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, Mumbai.<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gqCAhdMzO_g/VD6rbTtXjRI/AAAAAAAAA4E/IJ0JAHLLg30/s1600/IMG_1962.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gqCAhdMzO_g/VD6rbTtXjRI/AAAAAAAAA4E/IJ0JAHLLg30/s1600/IMG_1962.JPG" height="400" width="400"></a></div>
<br>
Bumped into fellow WWE fans Pranay and Digvijay at the airport which meant our trio would double up the fun in Malaysia.<br>
<br>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Boarding Pass- Check!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hey, I had a window seat to add to the awesomeness :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With loads of excitement in our bellies, we boarded our flight.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uUgP4BgEiNQ/VD6tDF5vneI/AAAAAAAAA4c/HhAgK0emGtU/s1600/IMG_1972.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uUgP4BgEiNQ/VD6tDF5vneI/AAAAAAAAA4c/HhAgK0emGtU/s1600/IMG_1972.JPG" height="320" width="320"></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Snoozed off for the night and in the blink of an eye it was already 7.30 a.m, our flight had landed at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Main Terminal, Malaysia.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><i><u>10th October 2014</u></i></b>, Friday- 7.30 a.m, Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Malaysia</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
WOHO. EXCITEMENT AT PEAK!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What was next?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Exploring the beautiful country, watching WWE live and having lots of fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But first, we checked into our Hotel to freshen up a bit because a long weekend was at stake.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hotel 'The Gardens' in Mid Valley City, Kuala Lumpur was our home for the next 3 days.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With spacious rooms, pampering services, humble staff and a mind-blowing location, 'The Gardens' is a winner. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My room number- 822! Amazing, right?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Won't you like to see the view from my room's balcony door?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iT1XGCxg2ac/VD6vosB381I/AAAAAAAAA44/vVYE1xFZxEQ/s1600/IMG_1988.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iT1XGCxg2ac/VD6vosB381I/AAAAAAAAA44/vVYE1xFZxEQ/s1600/IMG_1988.JPG" height="320" width="320"></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We then grabbed in a few hours of beauty sleep as the evening was bringing in heaps of WWE action.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
YAY!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4.00 p.m - Stadium Putra, Bukit Jalil, Malaysia.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The vibe, the crowd, the madness, the energy. The place was where we three were just meant to be. Every eye was rolling and searching for their favourite WWE superstar, every heart was beating for the fight to start.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My exclusive WWE pass. My ticket to bliss.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
LET THE FIGHTING, SMASHING AND BLOOD-SHEDDING BEGIN!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
No matter whether India is a part of WWE or not, we support and that's enough for us to cheer and roar.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*Proud Indians* in Malaysia.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
From 'The Big Show' to 'John Cena', they were all there to make sure we never stop shouting, 'This is Awesome' :D</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Wait, Did I tell you there are many perks of being the #No1WWEfan?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Look Look! We got to meet 'Los Matadors' in an exclusive Meet and Greet Session.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was an action packed evening filled with wrestlers giving the game of WWE their all for their pride which had to be restored.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was my first time watching WWE live and it was happening in a completely different country, what else could I have asked for? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The night ended but the memories remained. We were awe-struck with what we just saw, there were lot many chats that followed as we went on for dinner at a local restaurant.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a leisure day for us. So, we decided to go sightseeing and some budget shopping.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But, breakfast in the hotel first.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
From Indian delicacies like Sambhar-Vada to Malaysian 'Bubur Pulut Hitam', it was a 'making tummy happy' time.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Petronas Twin Towers</div>

2. Kuala Lumpur City Centre ( KLCC ) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's the Malaysian version of Mumbai's 'Fashion Street', Delhi's ' Chandni Chowk'.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Be it an Indian or a foreigner, we all love Goa. Don't we?</span></div>
<div>
Afterall, it's our closest escape to paradise.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And how disgusting was it that in my 19 years of being on this planet, I had never been to Goa?</div>
<div>
Yeah!</div>
<div>
So this time I said to myself - ENOUGH! </div>
<div>
And I was Enroute to the beautiful land of beaches, alcohol and peace.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It was the second last weekend of September and this time I didn't have to sing 'Wake me up when September ends'. LOL!</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
Hello Madgaon, let's begin our journey ;)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As I reached Goa by late night, the very first thing I looked for after getting freshened up at my resort was - FOOOOOD. And luckily, Goa is Mumbai's partner in crime. Yes, It never sleeps.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, I went to a restro bar in Baga called '23' which is open 24/7. </div>
<div>
Warning- It has good food but the vibe isn't too comforting if you are a single girl or a group of ladies / with family-children. On the other hand, For guys, it's the most perfect place. Roger that! </div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br /></div>
<div>
After boozing on beer and Prawns Fried rice, I returned to my Resort.</div>
<div>
Which one?</div>
<div>
'Resorte Marinha Dourada' in Arpora, Baga- Goa.</div>
<div>
Beautiful is the description. </div>
<div>
Clean, spacious rooms which make you feel like home. It has In-hotel wine shops, dining areas, garden, pool and lots of bliss. </div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br /></div>
<div>
A good night'a sleep beckoned and it was already Saturday morning.</div>
<div>
Time for some breakfast in the resort,eh?</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-J5sK8cE5CnI/VDl6gUME7WI/AAAAAAAAAyc/Lb0HQzhO2TE/s640/blogger-image--1675538543.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-J5sK8cE5CnI/VDl6gUME7WI/AAAAAAAAAyc/Lb0HQzhO2TE/s640/blogger-image--1675538543.jpg" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
From Poha to Toasted bread, </div>
<div>
From Masala Omelette to Uttapam with Sambhar-Chutney and tea, fulfilling.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After filling my tummy, I went on to explore the closest beach - The Baga-Calangute Beach.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-YkkqjFtNi8A/VDl6tQQwJII/AAAAAAAAAzc/QmuUF9pUxGA/s640/blogger-image--1778870658.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-YkkqjFtNi8A/VDl6tQQwJII/AAAAAAAAAzc/QmuUF9pUxGA/s640/blogger-image--1778870658.jpg" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Beaches serve you more than just good food and alcohol, it's an out of the box feeling which takes you away from the daily stress, a long way ahead. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br /></div>
<div>
Every time I am on the beach, the little girl in me comes out who views everything as a wonder, in itself.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A friend's birthday treat was up next at The Curry House in Candolim.</div>
<div>
Even though the lights were going on and off, the candles made up for it.</div>
<div>
When two friends meet on a birthday eve, there is not just one or two glasses but a sea of alcohol. Yeah! That's exactly what happened.</div>
<div>
From Vodka to Honey Bee Brandy,</div>
<div>
Whiskey to the famous Goan 'Feni', we tried it all. </div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Next day was filled with visiting churches and museums in Old Goa. </span></div>
<div>
Panjim is a city that speaks of the Goan history, The Portugese connection, the sacred temptation, the undying emotion.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
First up,</div>

<div>
Inside the church, there is also kept the sacred body of the saint who worshipped Jesus Christ- St. Francis Xavier.</div>

<div>
Right opposite is another church- St. Francis's church, and a museum which is equally beautiful.</div>

<div>
Then, as it's said,</div>
<div>
'When in Goa, do as The Goans do.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I did the same. </div>
<div>
Hello Coconut Water.</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
Tired. Too much. Yeah!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Back to the resort and some pool time maybe?</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br /></div>
<div>
What was left to be explored?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A lot more than you think.</div>
<div>
Oh yea.</div>
<div>
There is so much to see in Goa that one weekend is never a solution. NEVER.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Let's leave rest of the places for the next time and explore some nearby food joints.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A local shack nearby our resort served Prawns curry-rice with Red wine which left me wanting for more.</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br /></div>
<div>
I also bought some Cashew Feni to have it back home,Shh! This is a secret. Okay?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But let me tell you, Alcohol in Goa is really cheap. Like very cheap.</div>
<div>
Don't forget to rope in a lot of bottles in your luggage. </div>
<div>
Ignore if you live in a dry state, Please.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

</div>
<div>
Said Namaste to a Goan dinosaur one last time before I bid goodbye to Goa.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But first, let me have dinner.</div>
<div>

</div>
<div>
Pork Sausages at Kapriz in Baga were an overdose of Onions.</div>
<div>
My view- You might want to give this a miss. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

Chicken fried fingers, French fries with Mayonnaise and Arctic Vodka.</div>
<div>
Sorted.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It was time for me to leave the lovely city of Goa,</div>
<div>
With a heavy heart, I advanced my steps towards the station to board my train.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My heart was crying. I didn't want to go.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Goa is much more beyond beaches and drinks.</div>
<div>
Goa Is found in its historic past which still shines in monuments, churches and museums,</div>
<div>
Goa is where peace prevails.</div>
<div>
Every person here is a tourist who has left behind stress to live a life where he is the king and the world is his kingdom. </div>
<div>
And that's what Is the spirit of Goa.</div>
<div>
Commendable. Highly appreciable.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I feel one should visit Goa every weekend but that's not possible,</div>
<div>
Hence, a trip every two months should be aimed for.</div>
<div>
Because Goa shall never disappoint.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Mark my words.</div>
<div>
You can also hit me later ;)</div>

<div>
Adios Goa.</div>
<div>
We shall meet again soon.</div>
<div>
Thank you for giving me wonderful memories that I shall think and smile at for generations to come.</div>

While all girls go gaga over fashion magazines and shopping, I find myself checking out new trips online. Searching for the best travel deal on websites, reading travel blogs, books and secretly exporting myself off the hook.<br />
<div>
I don't really know how and when this started, but now it has become a part of me. What?</div>
<div>
TRAVELLING! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So where did my this love recently take me?</div>
<div>
To the beautiful, cultural land of Jaipur in Rajasthan and The national capital of India i.e-Delhi. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you have already been there or are planning to, either ways you won't want to miss what I have to say, or write, eh! </div>
<div>
So, let's get this rolling.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It was the first week of September and I was all gushed up about my trip and more so because I was travelling with my school best friend, Megha. Yes, this was happening after years, the last trip we took together was our Manali school camp 6 years ago. We were in 9th standard back then. </div>
<div>
And look at us now, College hasn't changed anything as such, instead just deepened our love for travel. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Enroute are we! </div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-e2aBrScOSxU/VCm8-OEl7lI/AAAAAAAAAvI/XoIXccKVFKQ/s640/blogger-image-1806979128.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-e2aBrScOSxU/VCm8-OEl7lI/AAAAAAAAAvI/XoIXccKVFKQ/s640/blogger-image-1806979128.jpg" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ah train journeys, how I love them.</div>
<div>
No doubt flights are luxurious, but the real shining India is found in Indian railways. Yea. Try it to believe it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We arrived in the pink city, Jaipur on 5th of September 2014 and the sight of Rajasthani women dolled up in traditional attires got my eyes rolling, in a good way! </div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-61ljnBVXdKg/VCm5Xr9w4UI/AAAAAAAAAt0/C6Y-hNhsEIw/s640/blogger-image-1911242274.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-61ljnBVXdKg/VCm5Xr9w4UI/AAAAAAAAAt0/C6Y-hNhsEIw/s640/blogger-image-1911242274.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Jaipur isn't as pink now as it was before, Sigh! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
We went to our accommodation, rested, freshened up a bit and went on to explore the place. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Hunger striked and we landed into the 'GAURAV TOWER' also known as GT which is famous for the yummy street food all at one place. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
What all did we try? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
- Raj Kacchori- Oh nom nom. Perfectly filled with Dahi, boiled potatoes, and spices, it's heavy enough to fill our stomachs.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
- Paneer Lacha - It's not Dosa that it looks like, it's something different, stuffed with paneer inside and chutneys to die for, it's one of a kind. Do try!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-_yJNH1EKcaE/VCm9a9PTtvI/AAAAAAAAAvo/BkJZBT76v6g/s640/blogger-image--1817380706.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-_yJNH1EKcaE/VCm9a9PTtvI/AAAAAAAAAvo/BkJZBT76v6g/s400/blogger-image--1817380706.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now that our Tummy was full, it was time to find a new place to explore.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Next destination was the 'World Trade Centre'.</div>
<div>
It's an Iconic place. </div>
<div>
From top shopping brands to all wonders of the world, 'All good things in one'.</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-UoL_Sn4pEHM/VCmZz2PQ1zI/AAAAAAAAAtk/GjOUZZ3w674/s640/blogger-image--173801156.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-UoL_Sn4pEHM/VCmZz2PQ1zI/AAAAAAAAAtk/GjOUZZ3w674/s640/blogger-image--173801156.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
There's also a 'Cake World' in there which serves yummy pastries. And it's cheap, trust me. It'll cost you around Approx. 50 bucks! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-rWbmk6U0Kuk/VCm5aZvSKHI/AAAAAAAAAt8/wAeAwYMDg8A/s640/blogger-image--340711136.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-rWbmk6U0Kuk/VCm5aZvSKHI/AAAAAAAAAt8/wAeAwYMDg8A/s640/blogger-image--340711136.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Been there, done that! </div>
<div>
Alright! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now let's go and snuggle under our blankets for a new destination tomorrow awaits.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Next day, we had to get up quite early, at 5 a.m because we were heading to Delhi via bus which could delay more than it should, Thanks to our Indian trafficked roads. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Oh Delhi! I could sense lip smacking food already. Nom! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We reached New Delhi at around 3 noon and straight away headed to a budget hotel in Paharganj. Yea, that's not the best place to stay in but not worst either, provided you are a risk taker. Or else, you might want to try hotels in Saket, Karol Bagh or Connought place etc. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dumping our luggage in the hotel room, we were set to live the Delhi life for 2 days. Say whaaaaaaa! 😍</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
First pit stop - Dilli Haat. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Oh Dilli, the food you serve can never be matched by any other city. NEVER EVER. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I just barged into 'Chicken Momos' and gulped it down before my body could realize what was happening.</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-D9i13fkhGsE/VCm8hJSJTgI/AAAAAAAAAuo/QAvUeFGbhfM/s640/blogger-image-1025688490.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-D9i13fkhGsE/VCm8hJSJTgI/AAAAAAAAAuo/QAvUeFGbhfM/s640/blogger-image-1025688490.jpg" /></a></div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You cannot miss this. And if you do, hit yourself with a stick. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dilli Haat is basically a shopping for traditional items and food hogging area. It's closest to the Sarojini Nagar Metro station so you might not want to miss it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Once you are done pleasing the tummy, take a Rickshaw and head straight to where we did, The Sarojini Nagar market.</div>
<div>
Afterall, we all enjoy cheap thrills, don't we? </div>
<div>
It's a 'traveller on budget's paradise'.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Once we were done, a Dinner at friend's place and we were in our hotel beds. </div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-KyMOe_vJAFY/VCm9KIppHUI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/TOsdxvLZnmM/s640/blogger-image--724129184.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-KyMOe_vJAFY/VCm9KIppHUI/AAAAAAAAAvQ/TOsdxvLZnmM/s640/blogger-image--724129184.jpg" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Next day started and we went on to live the Old Delhi style.</div>
<div>
It was Chandni Chowk time.</div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br />
As we were hungry since last night, we went in a local food joint at the epic 'Parathe Waali Gali'. </div>
<div>
It's no wide easy-to-be-distinguished lane but a small road which is hard to be noticed unless you are a pro or something. We had the Rickshaw waala to guide us, so no worries! </div>
<div>
And, did I tell you how amazing are the 'Cycle-Rickshaws' in Old Delhi?</div>
<div>

<br /></div>
<div>
Parathe Waali Gali- <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">The menu had all types of Parathas one can imagine of. I repeat. 'All'.</span></div>
<div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I decided to order a Banana Paratha and my decision was worth it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Sweet and bliss. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Not just bananas, the Paratha was also filled with dry fruits that leave you wanting for more. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, on a whole here's what I have to say-</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
From the world class Delhi Metro, to the 'to-die' for good Dilli food,</div>
<div>
From 'Dilwaale' Delhiites to each place being a wonder in itself,</div>
<div>
'Delhi ROCKS'! </div>
<div>
Period. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And we were in the train for a return journey to our respective homes.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Conclusion- </div>
<div>
On one hand, Jaipur was peaceful, traditional and beautiful,</div>
<div>
Whereas on the other, Delhi was modern, classy, and hearty. </div>
<div>
I discovered why it's called 'Dilwaalon ki Dilli', Because everyone is actually a good soul in there. Yes, actually!</div>
<div>
❤️</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Alas,</div>
<div>
To everyone out there, keep travelling for it gives you much more than what you put in. You are a new person when you return back, one who has forgotten all stress, and only happy memories beckon with zest.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bon Voyage! ✈️🚣🚂🌄🌅</div>

Firstly, HAPPY NAVRATRI to everyone out there.<br />
<div>
9 days of bliss has started and it has taken everyone by its magic.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But, as it's the regional festival of Gujarat, there is nothing like celebrating it here. I repeat 'NOTHING'.</div>
<div>
There is no single year when I am not in Gujarat during this time of the year, so with personal experience let me tell you WHY is it so special. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. The traditional Gujarati food all at one place-</div>
<div>
This just cannot be missed, afterall we love to eat, don't we?</div>
<div>
And the best part are the stalls that are put up during 9 days of Navratri making sure you don't have to go food searching in different corners of the city. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Let me tell you my favourite dishes.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
-> Papdi No Lot -<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-__ZkpcZXZZg/VCXk6JFNVII/AAAAAAAAAs8/sQsQHAYF0DE/s640/blogger-image--1940607590.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-__ZkpcZXZZg/VCXk6JFNVII/AAAAAAAAAs8/sQsQHAYF0DE/s640/blogger-image--1940607590.jpg" /></a></div>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
This yummiest Gujarati delicacy served with ghee and spicy Sukha chutney will leave you wanting for more. It's hot, served with love and a smile, Gujjus are too sweet, you see! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I won't tell you the recipe for then what else is Google for? Haha! ;)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
-> Gathiya-Fafda</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-EWAwN0n4u1c/VCXkniWp25I/AAAAAAAAAss/06c4ThHxUAg/s640/blogger-image--927808928.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-EWAwN0n4u1c/VCXkniWp25I/AAAAAAAAAss/06c4ThHxUAg/s640/blogger-image--927808928.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Served with not too spicy mirchi, it's more than just a snack.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
You can get it anytime and every time in Gujarat, but during Navratri, the value increases. No, not in terms of money, but in terms of awesomeness! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
-> Khava</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-GNKyxfbEAx8/VCXkuyYRKmI/AAAAAAAAAs0/kpgfeamJD7o/s640/blogger-image--830362417.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-GNKyxfbEAx8/VCXkuyYRKmI/AAAAAAAAAs0/kpgfeamJD7o/s640/blogger-image--830362417.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
As this is usually the time when cold waves start to set in, there's a solution Gujarat has for this too. It's called 'Khava'. It's a spicy hot drink made from old but gold masalas which are tastier and effective than the best tablets out there to solve your cough issues. Try it to believe it! You won't regret it. Promise.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
2. The Vibe<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
- There's a reason Navratri is Gujarat's regional festival, and that's because it's the best at it, no questions asked.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
From the Garba to proper traditional songs, everyone is dressed to kill.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
From fasting during the day to saying 'Halla Bol' on the food stalls during the night, you'll find it all, HERE. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-mZIcGq32PVY/VCXlElXXbHI/AAAAAAAAAtE/YqyH3d2igUk/s640/blogger-image-1630813774.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-mZIcGq32PVY/VCXlElXXbHI/AAAAAAAAAtE/YqyH3d2igUk/s400/blogger-image-1630813774.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
And and and,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Last but not the least,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
3. You might just find your Soulmate shaking legs during Garba-</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Many have got theirs, you might be next. No kidding! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Who knows whom your dandiya hits and sticks to and a guitar starts playing in your heart which stops only when you are in the marriage hall saying 'I do'. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Afterall, 'Kucch Bhi Ho Sakta Hain'. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
So, say 'Halo Halo' and pack your bags to fly into Gujarat. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Epic stuff awaits your presence. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
'Jalsa Karjo'! ❤️</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The month of July for me started with a bang as I was one of the chosen three winners to live the life of a "DIVA" for 2 days. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The first day ended on a fabulous note and we were on back to our guest house and on our beds all nervous and excited at the same time for there was a bright new day awaiting to shine upon us.</span></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
BLACK is that one color which gets me go gaga from on a dull, boring day to a bright, adventurous one. </div>
<div>
It is so perfect that it goes with almost every outfit, atmosphere and location. You don't need to think twice before picking up a black device. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As it's said,</div>
<div>
"WHEN IN DOUBT, GET BLACK" ;)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love colors but that doesn't rule out the importance of black in my life. It's the essence of nature. Black makes the colors appear beautiful. You usually take hours to choose that one perfect color but when black is spotted, there is no looking back.</div>
<div>
Black always under promises and over delivers.</div>
<div>
It is no more that color of loneliness or sad times, It's vibrant, chic, and very much in vogue. Something that sets eye balls rolling.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There are many BLACK things I love and wish for,</div>
<div>
But let me cut the queue to the 'Top 5' -</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><i><u>1. A BLACK AUDI </u></i></b></div>
<div>
Nothing speaks class better than an Audi. I am not a big fan of cars or automobiles but when it's a Black Audi, it's difficult to resist. In my wishlist since eternity lies this beauty. From the smooth drives to the head turning built, this is just a wonder car - A royal experiment that has no competition in the charm it displays. Bowled over without being a cricketer, such is the aura.</div>
<div>
It doesn't matter which model it is, A1, A3, A5, Q3 etc. until and unless it's an Audi in Black.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><i><u>2. A BLACK iPad</u></i></b></div>
<div>
Apple is royalty personified. Those who have it just don't flaunt it without a reason. It has so much more than just beauty on the outside, an operating system and quality to die for.</div>
<div>
An iPad in black is a gadget that can make my life 10 times easier. </div>
<div>
Being a Gemini, I am born a multitasking giant but I always feel the need to slow down and ease off the pressure over my brain and only a smart iPad device can do it. When you buy it, you see to it that it looks good too. So, Black is what I wish for.</div>
<div>
From watching movies to catching up on my daily soaps, I can do it all plus get compliments when I show it off. My black Apple iPad, My love!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><i><u>3. A LITTLE BLACK LOUIS VUITTON DRESS</u></i></b></div>
<div>
Getting an LBD for a girl isn't that a difficult task in the world where there are shops, sale and markets at every place. But, as I am no normal girl but one who's 'Glitter on heels and shine in eyes", so I have my wishlist which has stars.</div>
<div>
A little black dress by none other but the brand that gets my heart racing - Louis Vuitton, Yes, that supreme excellence.</div>
<div>

<b><i><u>4. A BLACK PUPPY </u></i></b> Nothing speaks of cuteness more than pets. Frankly, I was never fond of animals,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but lately I am changing. Call that early signs of ageing or whatsoever but I have started liking animals. A cute little black colored puppy would be perfect to ensure there's a live wire in the house that keeps everyone happy. Dogs are selfless when it comes to loving, giving, caring and living, A quality we humans lack to a great extent. And oh yes, they are so adorable, Who would disagree? ;)</div>

As we draw towards the end, I would say, </div>

BLACK is just not a color but a lifestyle. Not everyone is bold enough to let their aspirations take on over society's criticism, but for the one's who do, they do it in style. They choose black. It speaks for what their words won't. It says it all, IN STYLE!</div>

<br />
Life is all about moments, experiences, people and surroundings. It's all about ZEST.<br />
<br />
What is ZEST?<br />
For me, It's that tingly feeling in my tummy that gives me wings to fly and explore the extraordinary. It's that boost to my morale that sets me on a journey to conquer it all.<br />
I believe in living with zest no matter how much the stress!<br />
<br />
There is just not 1 or 2 but many things that add zest to my life and why not? Life's too short to be monotonous and boring, routine is lethal.<br />
<br />
Let me share those 5 things that zest up my life the most -<br />
<br />
1. <b><i><u>TRAVELLING </u></i></b><br />
To travel comes first in my Top-5 list because it runs in my blood. I am an explorer, a mover, a go-getter. I don't believe in sitting idle at one place but instead moving my ass to places I have never seen before, to get to know traditions and cultures I never knew existed, to indulge sinfully in food that's unknowingly divine, to get magically touched by the healing of mother nature that's pure and blissful.<br />
From climbing half of the distance of Mount Everest at the age of 10 in a school camp to Manali, to exploring the mighty golden island UAE- Dubai- Abu Dhabi at 18, I have done it all, at times alone, at times with all.<br />
There is something about travelling that makes me forget all my worries, I return back as a new person, one who is brave because I have been weak, fearless because I have been fearful and wise because I have been foolish.<br />
<br />
Everytime I am in a flight, I look down from the window and wave at kids who might be waving back from down beneath! :)<br />

2. <b><i><u>SPORTS - MOSTLY CRICKET</u></i></b><br />
Living in India comes with it's own terms and conditions, one of it being,<br />
"YOU ARE BORN A CRICKET ENTHUSIAST", Yes, And being a girl didn't stop that.<br />
Not just cricket, I love watching Football too, the recently concluded FIFA World Cup 2014 with Germany being crowned as champions had me hooked on from the start till the stop.<br />
But, Cricket rules my world. It's something that's like a nerve-wrecking drug, It makes me dance and cry, celebrate and mourn, conquer and despair, The game has it all.<br />
<br />

5. <u style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">MOVIES-FASHION-ENTERTAINMENT </u> </div>
Life will be a dull ride if there won't be any sort of entertainment to compile by. Entertainment comes in all sorts, for me it's all about dramatic movies, dancing on evergreen songs and always being in vogue. It adds a zest to my life making it the best.<br />
I watch all Bollywood movies possible and download as many Hollywood ones as I can because more than just romance or songs, it has so much to teach us, I learn and then unlearn - All thanks to the movies I see, to the books I read and the fashion I breathe!<br />
"Lights- Camera- Action" are the 3 magical words that always work for me and not "I Love You", Oh please! ;)<br />

<br />
<br />
On a whole, I would like to conclude by saying -<br />
Everyone is different and so are our choices. What adds zest to my life might be completely inappropriate to your's but you don't need to match and sync choices to live together, Instead just appreciate each other's point of view and gel well.<br />
I love life because I live with Zest, The zest which I find in everything I see and which I am yet to feel. I make it a point to learn new things, forgive quickly, love more and let go of what no more grows.<br />
After-all,<br />
<br />
"LIFE'S TOO SHORT TO BE BORING. SO, FORGET REGRETS AND LIVE WITH ZEST" :D<br />
<br />

<br />
Cricket + UAE + Pepsi IPL = Heaven!<br />
<br />
Who can doubt it?<br />
<br />
I was on my toes the moment I came to know I am going to the United Arab Emirates to cheer for Rajasthan Royals in their IPL game as a part of their #WeAreTheRoyals campaign.<br />
What was next was impatient days and lots of packing!<br />
<br />
The Visa and tickets were with us on 27th April'14 evening and we were all set to roll out the madness!<br />
<br />
Day 1 - 28th April'14.<br />
<br />
6.20 a.m - Enroute Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport Mumbai Terminal T2, For our flight to Dubai! Goosebumps, Tension and hell lot of on the edge nerves.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DM6XFyZTj-s/U2VFuTqUnFI/AAAAAAAAAa4/fffdDQL3Dv4/s1600/T2+Terminal.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DM6XFyZTj-s/U2VFuTqUnFI/AAAAAAAAAa4/fffdDQL3Dv4/s1600/T2+Terminal.jpg" height="320" width="180" /></a></div>
<br />
9.20 a.m - Boarded the flight after going through the immigration and check in process. First time taking off miles apart was an experience of sheer bliss!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6StBmqY75UQ/U2VGKuBF7rI/AAAAAAAAAbA/DY7RfmIkXb0/s1600/2014-04-30+10.20.15.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6StBmqY75UQ/U2VGKuBF7rI/AAAAAAAAAbA/DY7RfmIkXb0/s1600/2014-04-30+10.20.15.jpg" height="180" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
11 a.m - Landed in Dubai at the Dubai International Airport. Whattay fun! Came out to find our car waiting for us to be taken to the hotel in Abu Dhabi.<br />
The 2 hour road journey to the "Ritz Carlton" hotel in Abu Dhabi from Dubai enlightened me, with the tall buildings and infrastructure to die for. Awesome is the word.<br />
<br />
Reached the hotel and was mesmerized with the beauty of it. A jewel in the desert. It had a private beach too. How cool.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was the Day 1 and we were told to relax and admire the beauty all around and yes that's exactly what we did and oh yes, drooling in the yummy food was no exception in our list.</div>

5.20 p.m - Off to the stadium to cheer for Rajasthan Royals #HallaBol and what a cracker of a match it turned out to be against Kolkata Night Riders in the Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi.<br />
It went down to the super over, got tied again but alas RR won it on the basis of number of sixes hit. Oh bwoy, that's some nail biting finish!<br />

These days, Whenever I am put up the question- "What's exciting in your life?" ,<div>
I answer- "PEPSI IPL on <a href="http://starsports.com/" style="background-color: white; color: #b85b5a; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">StarSports.com</a>" </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Yes, It's that time of the year when all my cricket love and passion is on it's highest peak level!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What's the craziest thing I have done so I don't miss even a single shot of the PEPSI IPL?</div>
<div>
-> I decorated my home with charts supporting and cheering for my favorite teams! </div>
<div>
I support two teams - CHENNAI SUPER KINGS and RAJASTHAN ROYALS! </div>
<div>
Whistle Podu and Halla Bol is all I do no matter what the news, Be it in a theater or a public mall, I am always checking for the scores and it it's a six, I scream and jump irrespective of the place I am in because it's the love of cricket that's making me do it all, and I cannot control it! Can I? :)</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When it's PEPSI IPL time, All parties are been said a "NO", there is no outside, there is only inside because couch, T.V, food and Pepsi! ;)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But, wait, did you know that even when you don't have a t.v nearby and are travelling, you can be updated with live scores?</div>
<div>
Yes, It's magic offered to you by <a href="http://starsports.com/" style="background-color: white; color: #b85b5a; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">StarSports.com</a>, Now stay hooked to PEPSI IPL no matter how busy you are, because everybody has a smartphone with an internet connection, and that's all you need to keep in touch on the go with live scores.</div>
<div>
"It's an amazing innovation which is always updated with the recent scores, you feel like home, you feel like jumping as if you are present in the stadium!"</div>
<div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Cheering for RR with a "HALLA BOL", my walls support me by letting the motto hang on them! Dancing on tunes of the theme song, watching fans made videos on YouTube to prepare and get in the mood are little things that make up the most during PEPSI IPL! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There is nothing like cricket to boost the mood, nothing like dancing in joy and sitting in superstition that if I get up, my team might lose a wicket! You become insane because you love cricket.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have literally cried when I wasn't able to watch IPL matches due to travelling, I have fought to stay updated, I have done it all so I don't miss a ball!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And Now with <a href="http://starsports.com/" style="background-color: white; color: #b85b5a; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">StarSports.com</a> it has become easier to dance!</div>

<br />
Do you know heaven exists on Earth?<br />
Oh, yes, you might be thinking this girl has lost her mind and probably needs a psychiatric treatment.<br />
But No, I have actually experienced what I am talking about.<br />
<br />
It was one lovely weekend in March - 15th to 16th 2014 where I had got an opportunity to live life "Queen size". A perfect weekend getaway at THE LEELA HOTEL, MUMBAI.<br />
<br />
I checked in the hotel on 15th March'14 Saturday at 1.30 noon whereas the check in time was 2 p.m noon but that wasn't a problem at all because the staff was so sweet. As soon as I saw the pretty hotel, I fell in love, without entering in I could feel what it is, yes, that tinkling feeling in the stomach.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SUF0GPGl3xQ/Uzb9rZ8n8wI/AAAAAAAAAXE/Opi3lPKlGsc/s1600/100_5312.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SUF0GPGl3xQ/Uzb9rZ8n8wI/AAAAAAAAAXE/Opi3lPKlGsc/s1600/100_5312.JPG" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
The beautifully created hotel is a delight to the eyes, and pleasure to the soul. With a pool, gym, spa, gardens and tight security - You feel at home always!<br />
As mom and me entered in, Miss Akanksha from The Leela welcomed us in with a small aarti, garland and coconut drink to freshen us up!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-y8pcj5LRpaI/Uzb_G1ehdaI/AAAAAAAAAXQ/cnHnCMS33bY/s1600/zzzzoooo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-y8pcj5LRpaI/Uzb_G1ehdaI/AAAAAAAAAXQ/cnHnCMS33bY/s1600/zzzzoooo.JPG" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then we were guided to our ROOM no. "811" which truly gave meaning to the word, "King Size Deluxe", As soon as the door opened to the view of the room, I was transported to a different place where there is no stress. It had everything in it and yes a Jacuzzi too, Oh my lovely bathing time! :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-L9lL_QGO0WY/UzcAqo3bwwI/AAAAAAAAAXc/cMa3ZiKow8Y/s1600/100_5189.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-L9lL_QGO0WY/UzcAqo3bwwI/AAAAAAAAAXc/cMa3ZiKow8Y/s1600/100_5189.JPG" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We relaxed for some time and then went out to stroll in the beautiful arena! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We came back at night around 11 p.m and what was waiting in the room was a "Welcome" message carved on desserts. Oh my, to see them, fall in love, save or eat -Confusion! So, I decided to click a picture and gulp in in! ;) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DrRROY2omwU/UzcHGHZ2WwI/AAAAAAAAAX0/nmovAbLKayQ/s1600/zoooooomm+(6).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DrRROY2omwU/UzcHGHZ2WwI/AAAAAAAAAX0/nmovAbLKayQ/s1600/zoooooomm+(6).JPG" height="176" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And then, we went to a sinful indulgence at the buffet dinner at Citrus - The all day dining restaurant in The Leela. From chicken, pork sausages to homely dal - rice, it had everything to suit each person's taste buds. Spoiled by choice would be so apt! :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-W_RjYBixprY/UzcIFki6EpI/AAAAAAAAAX8/hLITSUSbXsw/s1600/zoooom+(7).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-W_RjYBixprY/UzcIFki6EpI/AAAAAAAAAX8/hLITSUSbXsw/s1600/zoooom+(7).JPG" height="261" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's never night at paradise, Is it? So, we decided to walk around in the beautiful place and see the complete hotel, clicked some pictures as memories live on forever and then came back to our room at 1.am to catch up on some sleep in our cozily made up bed! :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mJEut5PL5c0/UzcJZvtBVBI/AAAAAAAAAYI/_VvHu1zFE6g/s1600/zoommm.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mJEut5PL5c0/UzcJZvtBVBI/AAAAAAAAAYI/_VvHu1zFE6g/s1600/zoommm.JPG" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And before to checkout at Sunday noon, it was time was yummy mouth watering breakfast at Citrus, It has Egg Omelet, Tea, Stuffed tomato's and what not! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AHcSZXIGQQ0/UzcKop3-x5I/AAAAAAAAAYQ/mED76lxlOzM/s1600/zoooom+(8).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AHcSZXIGQQ0/UzcKop3-x5I/AAAAAAAAAYQ/mED76lxlOzM/s1600/zoooom+(8).JPG" height="320" width="283" /></a></div>
<br />
Some pool time and sun bathing!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO AN END*</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sigh! So did the time at The Leela, Mumbai. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
All these years of growing up and listening to stories by mom and dad had a beautiful place covered with attractions and where angels fell granting my wishes, turning me into a fairy!<br />
Now I realize what it was all about.<br />
<br />
It was MALAYSIA!<br />
A bubbling, bustling melting-pot of races and religions where Malays, Indians, Chinese and many other ethnic groups live together in peace and harmony. It's a gastronomical paradise and home to hundreds of colorful festivals.<br />
And to a person like me who loves celebrating and socializing, It's a boon :)<br />

This beach would be perfect to take some time out for myself, and relax with a book, then sunbathe and go for a refreshing swim in the clear blue waters. For a peace loving person like me, this place seems to be bliss!It will cater to provide me with the necessary stress relief of daily activities and a smile!</div>

Cameron Highlands, Pahang</h1>
<div>
It is Malaysia's largest highland resort. So undoubtedly there is so much to do once I get here. Walks through lovely little villages, visits to the butterfly, strawberry, honey bee farms and sprawling tea plantations or meals at the delightful Tudor-styled country inns are pleasurable activities to be experienced. It's so pretty, I cannot take my eyes off it, I wonder how shall I take my legs out of it once I get in :)</div>

The use of simple but purposeful lines allied to a low sweeping roof and tail give the C-X16 a muscular but sculpted look that can only be a Jaguar. </span><br />

<br />
Ian Callum, Jaguar Design Director, agrees."A Jaguar sports car should have clear visual movement in its design, and the C-X16 is the perfect demonstration of that goal. Each of its lines begins with a sense of purpose, and ends with a sense of clarity. It's that approach that has given the C-X16 its purposeful stance. Look at the C-X16 and you want to drive it – and that's just how a Jaguar sports car should make you feel."<br />

<span style="font-family: JLR Proxima Nova, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20.93000030517578px;">Jaguar’s Design Director, Ian Callum, says, ‘We designed the C-X17 from the ground up from a distinct set of principles, a deep sense of what makes a Jaguar: exciting proportions, clean lines, balance of form. Assertive and powerful, yet with a beautiful sensuality about it, the C-X17 is boldly, distinctively Jaguar.’</span></span></div>

The assured driving position is designed to give a feeling of security and being cocooned within the luxury of the cabin. There are premium materials used throughout including milled aluminium and black brushed anodised metal finishes for a dark, sophisticated effect.

It is finished in striking ruthenium and dramatically rises as soon as C-X17 Concept is activated.</div>

The Neglect of Indian Olympics Association has humiliated not only Shiva but the entire nation. It is because of this indifferent attitude that He has to compete as an Independent Athlete, NOT representing India.</div>
