Down the memory lane...

As I see the snow fall from my window and everything outside covered under a blanket of snow, I realize time has passed and I will be going home soon for the holidays. Its been 3 months now that I am here, but it feels just like I came yesterday. Time really flies...lets rewind a bit and let me tell you about the day I came here....

Cambridge

 I love my university; not only for the awesome campus, faculties and facilities but also the other things they provide us with. I was thinking of travelling solo since some time now and a Give It A Go session: a trip to Cambridge seemed to be the perfect way to try it out. Cambridge is a compact cosmopolitain city, home to one of the best universities in the world. Though a modern city, it has a well preserved ancient charm with its walkable medival streets, college courts , gardens and outstanding architecture.

Lake District

Like Scarborough, my university had organized another 'give it a go' session, this time a trip to Lake District. The Lake District, also known as 'The Lakes' comprises of 15 lakes and has some of the highest peaks in England including Scafell Pike and Helvellyn. The area is bestowed upon with natural beauty and is the home to one of the most prominent figures of English Literature: William Wordsworth (Daffodils)

Canterbury

My best friend has been in the UK for the past two years now and now that even I am here, I thought of visiting her for the weekend. She lives in Canterbury, in the district of Kent in south-east England. It is an English town which lies upon the river Stour mainly populated by students and the elderly. She lives in a lovely house with a cute loft, that I really envy!!

Scarborough

My university conducts something known as 'Give it a GO' sessions where you try something new. One such session was a day trip to Scarborough. Scarboough is a small English town by the sea, one of the oldest sea resorts in Britain. It was a lovely day, not sunny though unlike today. We reachead there around 10 am and headed straight towards the water. Too tempted looking at the water for the water-baby that I am, I could not resist but dip my feet in the icy cold water.

Gimpses of Bombay...

Hello there, I have secured admission in the University of Leeds, UK and am already in Leeds. I will be studying here for my Masters degree in International marketing Management and will be here for the next one year. Its a nice place and I am liking it here and will be writing about it soon.

As I am not in Mumbai anymore, atleast for the next year...here are some glimpses of my favourite city...

Panhala

"Panhala is a hill station?" was the first question that came to my mind when my dad told me that we will be staying at Panhala during our visit to Kolhapur. I had always thought that Panhala was a fort and I was not completely wrong, Panhala is a city within the fort founded by Shivaji Maharaj. Panhala has a great historic significance and is in fact the smallest city in Maharashta.
