Wanderlust!

I belong to the seas & the mountains... the land... the sky... the water... the air.. the beautiful nature!

I feel I posses a wild soul which can't be tamed.... The pleasure I get by travelling can't be found in anything else... Not in food nor in shopping... And just to tell you I love food like anything...

Yes, I love my people the most but the peace and pleasure traveling gives me is something else as if m not born to settle down... I might someday feel like living in some serene place but i feel the static lifestyle is just not for me... And I just wanna wander... I wanna see the world... Climb those high peaks... Swim in the sea... See aquatic life... Jump from the airplane... Wander in the jungles of Africa... Feel the joy & thrill of Disneyland rides in California.... spend serene time on the islands of Bora Bora... Party hard in Hawaii.... And the list is endless....

Whenever I see a sunset in a new land it changes something in me and I fall little more in love with life... I love myself more when I travel solo... For I discover a side of me I was not aware of... A different me... A not so bad me... A not so mean me...

I feel I can't open up easily with people but when I m in mountains or in the sea.. I open up to the nature... I feel it with all my heart... I m expressive like its some different girl inside me.... It gives me true fulfillment... I love talking to the strangers living in that land... As if I know them since ages...

I don't know about the world but I sense that silence of nature deep within my soul... And that feeling is unmatched with any other feeling on this earth...

I sometimes wonder who am I... I need to know more of me... And travel helps me discover a side of me I really never knew was even there....

God, just be on my side and give me power to pursue my dreams...

And Take care of my people... I love you... Muuuaaah :-)

Happy Birthday Pearl!

Dear Pearl,

You are FIVE today.. ;-)

I thought of doing many things today... But, somehow, I am not in a right state of mind.

But.. I wanna confess... You have been a true Friend and a real source of joy for me since you were born...

You were there when I was in my worst phase... and I ignored you... You were there in my best phase when I was too happy to share anything with you... Without complain....

I wish you were human.. But... wait.. I am glad you are not human or else you would have left me for someone else in my bad time :-)

I love you for being with me... :-)

A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY LOVE! :-)

Cheers! 
Deepika

'Shopping festival: Two days @trade fair'- 2

DAY 2

In just 7-8 times, I travel in metro like a pro.. :D.. Lol I don't believe I wrote an entire post on travelling in a metro... crazy me... Now, I enter in a metro station runs towards 'women only' coach and reach my destination wherever it may be... I find Metro convenient.. :-))

Coming to my second day of shopping at IITF... It wasn't there in my day's plan... But, since, I was highly motivated to go to IITF again and knowing the fact I had only one Sunday... I decided to sacrifice... :P

My 'Mela shopping buddy' was running in Delhi Marathon... So, I called up another friend and asked 'trade fair chalna hai' and in a fraction of second he said 'chal'...

It was 10.30am... And we met at Pragati Maidan metro at 12.30pm... Though, I am somewhat new to the list of metro travellers... I have never seen this much crowd at one place ever in my life... :-P.. I was not walking... I was pushed to move ahead... :P

Fighting through the crowd... I reached outside and waited for my friend.. He joined me in 5mins. . We started walking... Walking and walking :P

Entered inside the trade fair.. And started checking out stuff...

Oh! I can't explain the kind of perfumes I checked out at Bahrain's stall... It was heavenly... That fragrance was mesmerizing... I was sticking there for almost 15 mins to bargain since it was very expensive... But, I failed to bargain... We moved forward... All the while I was thinking of those perfumes... But, no worries... I'll buy them from Bahrain itself... ;-)) :-)

I was very interested in visiting Pakistan pavilion once again for the awesome stuff I bought on Saturday... I got some more on Sunday...

This time I bought chocolates, jellies and more stuff to eat for family... And we ate a lot there as well... :P

In evening around 5-5.30pm we heard Sufi music sound coming from open theatre.. We checked out it was amazing... A live band was playing... We stopped there for a while and decided to come back after some more shopping... We shopped more...

And.. in the end @6.30pm... We went and enjoyed open theatre dance performances for dunno how long... Rejuvenating it was after a long tiring day... I was lost in music... :-))

We left around 7.15pm... And I directly carried on with my pending weekend tasks... Reached home by 11pm... Super duper tired...

But, both days were great... I clicked less pictures on day 2... Sharing them below...

Pearl's 5th birthday is coming very soon... yayyy.. I am excited :-))

Thank you God, for being there... Please give me strength and bless my people... :-)
