Well.........yes! I'm back from an 'almost' wonderful holiday........and I have LOTS of pictures & stories to share with you guys!!!
I was technically back on the 25th of August....but thanks to the huge pile of work awaiting my arrival, I have started sorting through the pictures only now! *rolling eyes*
Anyways, another thing that had kept me busy was an exhibition of my clothes & accessories that took place on the 29th of August at Shisha (a nightclub).......and my latest collection was extremely well-received there, I tell you! Can't wait to share some snaps from the shoot with you all!!! (Even that is coming up soon!) :))
Ok..........going back to my vacay.......I had a great time travelling through the various places throughout the state of Kerala. We started from the seaside - enjoying the small sea-side town of Kovalam and also packing in a one day visit to Kanyakumari (the end point of India, where 3 seas meet); moved on to the hills of Thekkady & Periyar - famous for the Periyar forest & beautiful spice plantations; went on to enjoy the scenic beauty of the mountains in Munnar - endless slopes of tea plantations going on one after the other till the end of horizon; and lastly, came back to the plains - visiting the famous Cochin harbour before boarding my flight back home!!
That sounds perfect, you would say! So why did I say my vacay was 'almost' wonderful, you must be wondering???
Well....it would have been absolutely wonderful had I not fallen ill at Thekkady with some stomach infection that led to a drop in my blood pressure, ending in me having to be on drip for 4 hours in the local hospital instead of going on the forest safari tour! :(
Thank God I could be up & about in a couple of days to enjoy the rest of the places! (Thekkady's spice gardens & Periyar lake & Wildlife Sanctuary will have to wait for my second visit, I guess!)
Anyways, I'll be sharing outfit pictures and pictures of the places in a series of posts, starting with this one. Hope you'll enjoy the glimpses of my holiday! :)
For starters, I have a couple of outfits that I had sported at Kovalam. The warm weather & sea-side atmosphere demanded for shorts to be worn....and of course, I was too happy to give in to that demand! Here are the results!!!
