http://thephdjourney.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 26, 2007. The year that was. During my undergraduate studies in NZ, my friends and me would often think of going on a joint trip to India; but it never worked out.

It finally came to fruition (sort of) when three of my friends (Sunil, Vinod and Krish) decided to have a Thailand/India holiday! Dusk at the KRS dam in Mysore (Vinod and Sunil L-R). Taj Mahal a...

Friday, July 18, 2008. Another year that was. So, almost another year has gone by before I could blog about it! I dont know if this is because of how fast life is moving or because of how tardy I am in making blog posts; I guess it will always be an unsolved mystery :-) Nevertheless the time has now come for me to blog about another year that was, so brace yourself for the torrent of posts!

http://thephdjourney.blogspot.com/2007/07/year-that-wasvancouver.html
Monday, July 09, 2007. The year that was.Vancouver! Not very long after the snow started melting, it was time for Spring Break! A bunch of us decided to buck the trend of going south to warmer climes and went to Vancouver instead! Navi had been praising Vancouver (his hometown) all year long, so it was time to put his words to test! He was great host to us and even accommodated all of us in his home for the whole week! In the end he was more than proven correct! Here are some of the pics from the trip:.
