Nilgiri Mountain Railway, Ooty, Coonoor

March 29, 2009

I spent a quick weekend in Ooty just before the beginning of summer, doing not much but whiling away time, not chasing places to see or things to do. A short journey on 10 minutes on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway, and a quick visit to Emerald Lake happened while I was there. Some pictures.

Couchsurfing India

A few months ago, folks at oktatabyebye.com called me into their office for a discussion. The briefing they gave me was simple: they wanted me to go all over India, couchsurfing at the houses of the members of their site, and tell people about all the good times I have had. For some reasons I could not take up the plan and had to leave it at that.

He is now in Gujarat and will soon be on his way down south, requesting people for a place to hangout for a few days. Ashish is now writing at ‘Myself, Ashish’, currently uploading his stories from Junagadh and heading next to Baroda and Mumbai. As I glance through his itinerary, I can surely tell that he has been going to many places that I would have loved to see myself at!
