I have made many efforts in the past to start a blog of my own. In fact I did one back in the day when I was in Chennai (circa 2007). I also gave it an inspired title, “Anantayana” or Anant’s journey. Unfortunately, that journey came to a halt after 2-3 blogs. I will post a link to that blog if I am able to find that. I wish the journey this time is longer and fulfilling.

I took the picture of this painting hung in a hotel lobby of Chail, in Himanchal.

Why am I writing this?

I have a few interests, especially trekking in Himalayas, Hindustani classical music, cricket, reading, architecture, philosophy. I hope I am able to share a few pieces, that give me satisfaction of being able to objectively write my experience, while the reader is also able to benefit or derive joy reading it. I recently travelled to Niti Valley, and I though I need a medium to login my travels- anything from simple journal entries to more profound reflections. The instinct, and more importantly the kinetics of actually starting one, could also be precipitated by a growing realization of mortality. So, this might be something more subconscious. I begin my wishing myself luck.
