Life has become more interesting with the arrival of the little one - something both of us were eagerly awaiting for a while now!

What's new?

Trek to Ettina Bhuja was one of my best - thanks to a wonderful group of spirited trekkers and the ideal weather. We started from Shishila @ the banks of Kapila river, camped @ Bhairaveshwara temple in the night, reached the peak and got back to Shishila the next day.

A quick escapade to Maidanahalli Blackbuck sanctuary for a photo shoot of the beautiful Antilope and the amazing birdlife within the sanctuary. This was followed by an outing from Firetide to Sivanasamudram for the Gaganachukki and Barachukki waterfalls. We had a blast, especially at the Barachukki, where we could get right underneath the water falls.

The much awaited trek to Vavul Mala was simply the best. I, along with Josettan ascended the Vavul Mala peak @ 2339m in the Vellarimala ranges all the way from Muthappanpuzha @ abt 450m. Gr8 trek spanning 3 days.

Hit the roads in the Versa after such a long time, to Hampi & North East Karnataka, including Aihole, Pattadakal, Badami, Gol Gumbaz @ Bijapur and forts @ Gulbarga and Bidar. The trip was 5 days long and spanned 1705kms.
