A day in the life of us.

Posted By radhika

For everyone who is reading this blog it might appear that we seem to be having the time of our lives. Well! That’s true but we also seem to have to do our blogging, photography and attempt to provide some footage for the short clips being put up.
We shall now attempt to put on paper a typical travel day as experienced by us.
Wake up unusually early by 5:30am
Attempt to get out of the hotel by 6am
Start our drive (a 300km drive shouldn’t take more than 6 hrs-typically)
Stop at anything we find interesting (which seems to be everything under the sun) and shoot on the way.
If we haven’t mentioned detour a hundred times before, let me mention it again-WE DETOUR.
So, what should be a typical 6 hour drive drags on for 12hrs
Reach hotel at 6pm- if lucky
Then attempt to pool all the content we’ve gathered and follow up with stories.
Typical bedtime for Bharath -12AM
Typical bedtime for Radhika -2AM
End result- No time to do things that we would love to do that is
1) More posts.
2) Reply to all the people who have been encouraging us and commenting on our posts.
3) Sleep some more.

But I think we just wanted to let you all know that the support and encouragement is really helping us. Its feels so good to have you follow our route with us. Thank you.

Radhika and Bharath.

Back at the hotel after seeing the absolutely stunning temples of Khajuraho.

About us

Being best friends with Bharath has been my biggest challenge to date. Constantly arguing about most topics under the sun and having diametrically opposite perspectives to life makes us such good friends.

Having met at photography school, our shared passion for travel, culture, music, books and art made us drive off to different places on photography ‘assignments’. 5 years down post-grad school we still make spontaneous trips to feed our wanderlust.
