Andhra Pradesh and Telangana are the least explored states in the South for me. I have been adding places of interest to my list. Gandikota has been on that list for a while. I wanted to do it post-summer and during monsoon so it would be cooler. Monsoon has not really arrived, though...
I have been to and seen many protests. But this one (#cjpprotests) is very different from the rest. I see them not only facing so much harshness but also having so much fun and so much camaraderie. It makes me jealous. All power to the younger generation. Though I am young at heart,...
Overall, a good but hectic week. I spent time planning for the next few months. Planning is my comfort zone. When things are planned, I sleep better. It doesn’t mean I can’t do unplanned things; I can, and I often do. But I like the regular parts of life to have a thought-out...
