Two Timing, Am I ?

Today let me take you with me on a small part of our Road trip.
For those who follow me it's no surprise and you guys already know it from all the posts and my random rants that I am a nature girl at heart ... 
In nature I lose myself and find myself again .. I breathe.. I rejuvenate .. 
And this feeling was strengthened and factualised by our recent road trip which we were advised strongly against by our Dr. Reason - I was very weak with low bp. Which was lower than low and I was advised strict bed rest. Still me being me went with the trip  ( well in my defence everything was booked and this trip was planned from a long time and we were in such anticipation and I love road trips and Goa ) as I thought we 'll do it as it's just from Pune to Goa... ( well that was irresponsible but adventurous though ) 
The whole way hubby took care of me like no ones business. Fussing about my rest, my meds, my snacks, ( could I get any luckier, touchwood I have won myself  a jackpot ) Coaxing me to sleep but no sooner than we took to the forests and mountains they just kept me going and like that .. like just that.. I was feeling so live. The magic of nature is marvellous beyond understanding ... it's wonderful, just leaves one astonished at it's beauty, sights, abundant life and a strong will to keep growing to keep living and giving. 
The crisp air, the smell of moss laden trees, gurgling waterfalls, chirping birds,  what's there not to like... not to fall in love.. not to be fully alive and aware.. not to replenish and rejuvenate every sense of the body. 
I was healed ... if not completely ... in my mind ... in my will to be one with nature .. in spirit.. I was one with nature.
It helped me like it does always. It loved and accepted and nourished me like it does always...
I wanted to get out of the car, touch the leaves, feel the cool gurgling water, smell the wild daisies.
Just like that my love affair continued .... ❤
With my hubby as well as nature... I was two timing and how ... but sometimes a girl just gotta do what she gotta do. 😉



Monkeying around, are we ?


Mountains are calling ...



Specks of green..


And I did get out of the car... didn't get to play in the waterfall, well whom was I kidding .. I got out and just that was enough to get a smile to my sick, tired af face.
P.S. how cute is he 😋




I want to be here forever in these mountains, where my soul belongs amidst nature.



The Magic of Mystical Mountains beckons me on ...
Forever a mountain Girl ...
They have my Heart...



Check out this small video ... a glimpse of magic ...

on that note ..

Pop of colours and a Pink Rikshaw in Goa

Recently we went on a mini break to just relax and catch up on ourselves.
Where else but -- Goa !! It beats everything hands down when it comes to the lazy life, sun, sea, good food and some me time. What else does one need from life. Sorted isn't it ;p
The Goa posts about this trip have been pending but what with Diwali and then Trump and Modi Sarkar move. So finally I decided to write and rejuvenate. The post I am beginning with is a colourful one - as you must have guessed from the tittle (I really do require some colour and energy right now).
So on that note lets dive into our Goan Sojourn.
The Goa Winter mornings and sun is beautiful and when in Goa I just let my little Boho heart wander.
I play with colours like there is no tomorrow and just let myself be (as if it was a question of life and death). I do take my holidays very seriously you see. After all Life is one big holiday isn't it ? :)


 

As I warned you colour alert and more ahead !!
I just love my colourful drinks with or without umbrella.
Right here is a pink strawberry lemonade which I am cradling with so much love and greed ;p

Here I go swooshing my skirt in the sunlight and flaunting my colours.
There is only one dress code when on holiday (especially Goa) carefree comfort -Now I think of it actually that's my style mantra otherwise too.











& just like that the sun gave way to rains and the sky poured its heart out.


& just like that I hitched myself a pink Rikshaw ride to match my mood.
Wish I could get it back with me to Pune (may be we can have hues of pretty pink Rikshaws, then travelling in this traffic might be that much better - thoughts oh thoughts).

So this was a preview for all the colours and Goa craziness coming your way in the upcoming posts.
So stay tuned.

Outfit Details

Top - Limeroad  similar
Skirt - Nuon - better
Sandals - Bata same
Shades - Forever 21
Rings - Jabong and Pink Pvssy
Bag - Be for bag


Do let me know your thoughts.
Until next time.
Stay cheerful.

Goa Diaries- Snippets

Our Tradition of Hubby's birthday celebration in Goa continues. 
We both love Goa however his love for Goa exceeds mine any given day with him wanting to spend every birthday of his in this land of Sun, Sea and Sand. He wants to Go to Goa for every vacation 🙈. 
So atleast one trip to Goa every year is mandate and so is his Birthday celebration 💃.  
This trip was all about Sleep, Sea, Swim, Eat and Repeat. 🏊🌴🌊🌞😴🍴 We so needed some relaxation and Goa never lets you down. 
We got a slice of everything on offer - partying, lazying, napping on the beach, swimming, feasting and hydrating. 
The susegad life indeed. 
Sharing with you guys our sun kissed snippets. ❤️❤️




Enroute, we both love to take a road trip to Goa rather than a flight or train.
We just love the scenic locales and all the fun we have on our journey.🚗
 





Mandate pit stop and customary weird pose.


Goa it is.🌴🌴



The elephant drank away my drink ;)🤓🍹


when in Goa it is always Boho.








Love reading after swims be it by the pool or at the beach.




The sea food paradise, we can never have enough of it.🐠🐟🍤



The sea beckons........







We can sit on the beach forever.



Night dips and then long peaceful sleep.




The beauty never ceases.









slurping on ice creams is a must.🍦



Perfect nook to read.



Ending on a sweet note.
