Traveling by bus is fun. Not just bus but take any public means of transport. I can’t say about luxury travel. That is because I have never traveled in such. My traveling is mostly by bus. So I can tell you it’s really fun. You get to see many new people and strange people whom later on you can blog about. 😆 I get to see many of these. I have not started blogging about these different peoples. So I’ll start today.

Charity begins at home. Please don’t come to my house asking for this. I am not always available for this. So as I said charity begins at home let’s begin with me. I am, I was and I will always be different. Today I confirmed this. This incidence that happened is a small one and almost neglected by anyone. Since my eyes always keep looking for something, I couldn’t afford to neglect this.

Like everyday, I had to rush to the stop to catch my bus. Fortunately I was early and more fortunately I got a seat. That was a good start for the day. Just at the time of leaving an old woman entered the bus. A typical old woman in India is a bit fat and short. So she was one of them. Unfortunately for her all seats were full. Normally I am a good boy and I give my seat to old peoples. Not today. Continue reading →

It’s holiday time

After the Diwali festival some days are still left. In most parts of India this is Diwali vacation time. So the tourist season starts from here. Though I live in a place which is 365 days on holidays, officially the government says this month as the start of the tourist season. Forget the government. It’s not a topic we should talk much about.

For the last few season there is increase in number of tourists from parts other of India. I can say that personally also as I have seen more Indian tourists on beaches than the foreign in some places. Fortunately or unfortunately it is the beaches which is the attraction for all tourists. There are many other places in Goa which are worth seeing.

As a tourist you should make sure you have good accommodation. You should book rooms before coming to Goa. It is relay difficult to get them when you visit in tourist season. Almost all hotels will run full. You may then have to lookout for some cheap motels. That can leave a bad taste about Goa in your memories. So book your rooms in advance.

Just to help you people, I am listing a list of websites that can help you. Internet is a great means to find a hotel without visiting.

Travel Go Goa : Focuses mainly on hotels in Goa. It also gives some extra information about history, heritage, art and culture of Goa. You might like to read this before you go.

Hotels Goa India : Another one mainly focuses on Goan hotels. Nicely categorized into five star, four star and so on it is easy to find hotel based on  star. It also lists some nice  hotel packages.

Hotels Combined : This is one of the best. To be precise it is the best. It enlists almost 250 hotels in Goa. That is quiet a lot to choose from. There are user ratings which means other users rate the hotels based on their experience. It gives you cost of room per night just aside the hotel. There is map where you can locate the hotel and find the route. Also it lists some features of the hotel you’ll stay. You can sort based on Price, User rating, Names and stars. This website not only lists hotels just from Goa but around the Globe. It is like one stop and look nowhere else.

Yatra Travels : This is one of the leading traveling agencies in India. They have variety of packages not just for Goa but in other places of India and around the world. As they say “Smarter way to travel” they have made things easy for tourists by providing good amount of information through their website. As for Goa you can find hotels in Goa here.

I hope that will make things easy for you to travel in Goa. Enjoy your holiday in Goa. And if you would like to meet me, just drop in a message here. I’ll try to meet. :love:

P.S. : You may be interested in reading this topic about me. Some photos from Goa.

Dawgs smile

Smiles are always great. It just increases the face value of anyone. By anyone I mean anyone. Here it is a dog who smiles. I have never seen a dog smiling. All I know about dawgs is that they run after me, they bark, and they have sharp teeth. So this post is tribute to all those like me.

Silence Please

/ Guttu / 2 Comments

Silence is golden. In the economic crisis like what we are facing this silence proves to be more valuable. Perhaps it is the most valuable asset at this point. Who knows when this crisis is going to get over?? Just today and yesterday the share markets took a flight and ended with breaking records of highest gains in a day. That looks promising. Not for me. I am not economist and can’t elaborate much on this. Silence is good here. One thing for sure that this rise is temporary.

Words and silence are two sides of the same coins I feel. Words can hurt you. They hurt your feelings. Silence does a different thing. It breaks your heart. Recall a day when someone you talk everyday suddenly stops speaking you. You won’t feel bad. It will break your heart. It takes time to recover from this. I am too bad at this. I use silence as a weapon.

If you don’t know, then let me tell you one great fact about silence. Silence is a language. Don’t get shocked. Silence is a language which one needs to learn. Now it’s up to him to use it wisely. This language of silence is powerful means of communication between two person who are close to each other. They may be friend or love each other. Silence brings them closer.

We all are taught this language. Right from our childhood. When we cry our parents or someone says silence. When we grow up and go  to school, our teachers tell us to keep and maintain silence in class. We do it till teacher is in the class. Once she goes out silence breaks. Then again in our higher secondary and college. Throughout the time we are being taught this silence language. What we do?? We ignore of course.

Silence speaks more than words and if you know silence then you’ll also know that silence is full of music. Learning silence may help you to learn music.Being silent while reading the whole post is one of the signs that you want to learn silence. Happy learning.

Have you seen zebra crossing?

Zebra Crossing

Have you seen such a zebra crossing?? This is very rare. This must have been a zebra escaped from a zoo. That is because zebras are difficult to be found in city and crowded areas and that too in New York. A zebra crossing a zebra crossing. Sounds crazy and looks crazy. Store this rare moment as probably you’ll never see such thing again.
