http://ritf.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Rain In My Face. The Journey. Is. The. Destination. Sunday, July 27, 2008. Animal sightings, or how I don't. Till you start towards Fringe Ford from Talapuzha (yes it's pronounced the same way rest of India can't pronounce Kozhikode) and get to the edge of town, it does seem that you won't be going too far from civilisation. To be honest I've been to places that have been further from civilisation than this, ( Jainkhan. Is one, Coffee Valley. Be followed by siesta. I was with the Urban Yogi. If it's not ...

Rain In My Face. The Journey. Is. The. Destination. Thursday, March 22, 2007. Sun, Sea and a whole lot of chillin'. Work is good. Mainly because it helps you appreciate the breaks better. I believe I touched upon this theme earlier. Anyhow, as it often happens in corporate-dom, we'd worked like dogs (no offence to the ladies who'd worked equally hard) for a long time. To the extent that most of the other teams would rather chew on their shoes than have any. Guardian angels - and possibly ours - were on t...

Rain In My Face: September 2006
http://ritf.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Rain In My Face. The Journey. Is. The. Destination. Sunday, September 24, 2006. Long trips, short weekends. Valparai is not your typical weekend break. At least not from Bangalore. For a start, it's might be a little too far - about 415/420 kms. If you are lucky or drive like Sebastian Loeb. There is not much to do. But you need a really long weekend for that. New trip report, with more staying options here. Sunday, September 24, 2006. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Rain In My Face. The Journey. Is. The. Destination. Wednesday, January 16, 2008. Someone tells me that the Brits swarm in hordes to Goa for the winter, slather themselves with suntan lotion and roast. So, besides the blue waters of the Arabian Sea, there is a sea of pink sunburned blubber on the sands. Be that as it may, we figured setting aside the sun burn part they're all onto a good thing. Which is why exiting Coffee Valley found us pointing our way westwards. The journey brought us to the destinatio...

Rain In My Face. The Journey. Is. The. Destination. Friday, April 08, 2005. Yercaud is also known as the Poor Man's Ooty. It's quite uncalled for. It is nothing like Ooty. If you discount the lake. And the hills. And the boarding schools. And. so, fine. It is a lot. Like Ooty. But it is a heck of lot closer to Bangalore. At 230 kms, it is a good 100 kms closer than Ooty. Plus Ooty does not have Suhas and family and their heavenly. Food But more about that later. Now comes the important part. The Food...

Rain In My Face. The Journey. Is. The. Destination. Friday, October 17, 2008. In which Leeches feast. So we learn about this place near Ujire which is supposed to be a really nice trekking trail that doesn't usually feature when folks are talking about trekking in Karnataka. While a lot of folks seem to have trekked it, there's not a lot of information floating around. This post is going to be short on both details and photos. For the simple reason that on the way up, all of us were worried about. View m...
