My thoughts run free here…

Welcome to my blog

This is my corner of the Internet for sharing stories, ideas, and my travel experiences that shape my daily life…

  • BK: Dangerous or peace-loving?

    The ‘wanting’ to belong somewhere, like in a cult, is just a feeling of inadequacy you have in yourself. Because without that particular organisation that you belong to, you cannot survive, you cannot live peacefully. This only means that you have become dependent on something that is slowly taking over your mind, body and soul….

  • First post for 2012 🙂

    Wow… I can’t believe myself that it has been so long since I’ve written a post in this blog. I haven’t been busy, I admit it. I was just not in the mood to sit and write a post about all that is happening in my life right now. Too many things to talk about…

  • Just an update

    Travelling to a foreign country to pursue your futher studies, while leaving behind your loved ones, is a daunting experience. But I realised this only in the first few weeks after my dad left Sydney after he settled me here. Before that I was excited to be going to a new place, as I know…

  • (I would) Love to be in Love…

    All of us have our dreams of our future life partner. We have many expectations.  He should be a degree holder. He should be an engineer. He should be above 170cm in height. He should be a Hindu. He should be a …….. So many expectations…. But when we meet the right person and fall…

  • I Miss Paper!

    You might be wondering what the post title actually means. Yes, I miss paper! I miss the feel of having a paper in my hands while I read it. It has been ages since I read news from a newspaper. I feel that in my life for the past few years, I have stopped using…

  • In Sydney!

    My first post from Sydney. This post signifies that I have settled in well in Sydney and that is how I have the mood to blog! After more than a month’s time, first time I feel at ‘home’ here. It is amazing that I went through this transformation from being excited to depressed and finally…

Why I Started My Personal Blog

I started personal blogging as a way to give my thoughts a home—a space where my experiences, lessons, dreams, and quiet reflections could live beyond my journal pages. Between building my career, managing finances, exploring new places, and navigating life as a woman constantly learning and evolving, I realized I had stories worth telling. Writing became my way of slowing down, making sense of my journey, and honoring both the milestones and the messy in-between moments. This blog is where I document not just where I go, but who I am becoming along the way.

Over time, blogging grew into something deeper than self-expression. It became a bridge—connecting me with people who may be walking similar paths, feeling similar doubts, or chasing similar dreams. Whether I’m sharing travel reflections, personal finance insights, creative pursuits, or lessons from love and self-growth, my hope is always the same: that someone out there feels seen, encouraged, or a little more confident about their own journey. This space is my reminder that growth doesn’t have to be perfect—it just has to be honest.
