The person experience of this blizzard was pretty interesting. First time snow drivers and all that. It took us 2 hours to reach our apartment from our friends place which normally would take 10 minutes. It involved a lot of shoveling,pushing the car, driving on the wrong lane, taking longer routes, stopping in the middle of the road and all that. Much fun was had and thankfully everyone was safe.

Writing

I started this blog a few years back but I hardly post anything. Its not that there are no subjects but I hardly feel the motivation to devote 30-60 minutes everyday to actually write something. Also, I write pretty average so I do not want to subject my few friends to torture who read this blog on a regular basis.
 

When I started this blog, I thought I will write about varied subjects and I will write them regularly. But whenever I think of writing, the words do not seem to flow. Also, limited grammar and a limited vocab do not help towards the cause of writing. I used to write what I think is poetry too but it used to be so bad that I used to laugh at them myself. 

One might think as to why I am suddenly blabbering about writing. Actually, I also do not know.

The above ramblings are totally incoherent and I cannot even blame alcohol for it.

Travelogues

One of the new blogs which I have been following recently is of Deepak Iyer.

He is a fellow who loves trekking; so that is one thing that makes me read his blogs. He had been to Peru and Mexico in the last few months. One can read his experience of Peru over here and his Mexico escapades over here. Do read them.

I recently missed going to Ecuador with Abhilash but surely, I would follow one advice which Deepak gives about traveling which is to travel alone. I have traveled alone a far bit in India but have never done that outside India. So, this is one experience which I want to have as soon as possible. Hopefully, I plan something for the coming summer.
