After spending the morning wandering through the historic Dubai souks, with their intoxicating aromas and vibrant atmosphere, my appetite was primed for something special. That’s when we decided to elevate our culinary adventure by visiting Al Khayma Heritage Restaurant—my first-ever Michelin star dining experience, and surprisingly, one that wouldn’t break …

Continuing with the Dubai blog posts (while I prepare for my next travel adventure), it’s time to take a detour from the Museum of The Future, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Souks and the Global Village and move the attention to another engineering marvel – The View at Palm Jumeirah. Imagine standing …

Wow, I can’t believe this is the 1500th post on the blog! What a massive milestone this is. When I started back in 2014, I never imagined I’d be sitting here a decade later, having shared 1500 different stories, experiences, and adventures with you all. It’s been quite the journey! …

Exploring the Dubai Souks was one of the highlights of our first international family trip. On the one hand, we have modern engineering marvels like Burj Khalifa; on the other, traditional souks still have ancient charms. While the souks gave us a taste of old Dubai, Global Village opened up …

November 2, 2023, was when I embarked on my first international trip to Chicago to attend KubeCon. It was a special moment, but I never knew how things would change after that. From exploring New York on this trip, I got an opportunity a few months later to visit Paris …

I was out with a friend at PS Cheese Cafe a few days ago, where we discussed travel, and one thing that came up was hostel etiquette. Since both of us travelled quite a bit (me less), we’ve had our share of experiences when it comes to hostels, and that’s …

Of all the KubeCons I attended, KubeCon Paris was among the most taxing. I was constantly on the move, attending talks, meetings, and networking. The conference days were so tiring that I barely took any time to explore Paris. I used to come to my hotel and crash.  However, after …

My mom told me she wanted to visit Lucknow a few days ago. So, I started looking for flights, and I was shocked to see the fares. For one second, I was confused, but later, I realized it was because of the rush for Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj.  With flight …
