I dream of a toxin-free, organic lifestyle for the trees and plants around us. A green good lifestyle.

Getting used to Sydney like never before, eluding divulging silence in my heart, freeing myself off inhibitions; I was flying across seven seas. Well, I didn't mean to sound that poetic ;) It is just that the world is celebrating V-day and the fever has gotten into me. Coming back to my Sydney Boomerang series… (Find a recap  here ) When I landed in Sydney, I almost forgot about the fact that I am in Australia; a place known for the most pristine landscapes in the world. It also is home for some beautiful animals - If someone asks me what I love about Sydney, I’d say Kangaroos and Koalas. On second thought, why leave out little Wombats, Possums and Wallabies, they are cute ones too, right?!. A Joey says”Hi” At Featherdale Wildlife Park, Sydney Hello there! It was a scorching summer day, perfect nevertheless for a trip around the city and we headed to the Featherdale park in Sydney. I was lucky to see some friendly a...

Humming blithely one morning as I opened your letters; outside, the sky was blue and the sun shining. It felt good to be alive. I had let them languish in a box and let them ferment into dark poison, as if to entertain the ghosts in my house. I opened the first letter. It read “I am leaving you and leaving the earth”. A sharp ray of light struck my forehead and I wanted to fly. Far up, until the crisp air thins and  I'd  never want to come back down. The sky was still blue, the sun still shining.

One should not hold on to stuff that one needs to let go. I know I want to let go of a lot many things and honestly speaking, I am working on changing and that's why I am writing this series. I want to be able to release all my anxiety and just enjoy my existence. I am enjoying the process of figuring all this out. It's just takes time. Eventually I'll get my thoughts, emotions and life aligned. Too much philosophy??? Okay, I will get right to the story now!!! That' s me gulping down a burger at Sydney airport It was a bit of a drizzle when I stepped out to get a taxi. Searching for the taxi stand, I started walking. There were so many cars going out and coming in; all big ones. I couldn't figure out which a taxi was. I thought about how easy it was to spot an auto in India (Black and yellow, not so mellow). A couple of cars just drew close and stopped. Both had taxi caps!! Voila!!  I gave him the address and told him I had only US currency wit...

Ever Yours, This will be a memoir of my visit to my favorite place in the world. I won’t make it a schmaltzy, nostalgia-struck narrative; I want this to be both a fond memory and a useful guide. Picture taken when I was taking the Cahill walk - Amazing view from up there!!! Sydney is not just a city; it is a lot of things.     I am in love with a city; vivid and happening, full of life, dreams, lush green landscapes, koalas, kangaroos and of course the Opera house!!!  Picture taken at Feather dale National park                                               When I first landed there I was literally broke and I barely knew a soul. But the city taught me to think, learn, explore and live. Sydney is not just a c...
