Sarin Suares & Vidya Raman

Total Vote(s) : 879 | Total Testimonial(s) : 56

We are Vidya and Sarin from Delhi. He is an Engineer-MBA and she is a CA. He is Mangalorean and she is Tam-Bram. She is Hindu and He is Catholic (At least both are South Indians who believe in God) He likes rock music and She says that’s noise She loves ghazals and old hindi music and He asks me why are they mourning. She loved Kung Fu Panda; for him it was just another movie He loved Terminator Salvation; for her it was nothing less than a headache. (Forget the genre at least both love music and movies) He lives to eat chicken and she stops at eggs, but no further. Who says opposites don't attract? The attraction was instant almost the moment we met… I began to giggle while Sarin started to grin… A match made in heaven? Not really… A match made at Café Coffee Day outlets and Tankus– specifically! But it wasn’t only the coffees that got us both going. It was simply each other – love just started growing. Now it’s been over two years since our romance began, And we gave each other a ring and our marriage was planned. He’s not tall but dark and handsome – That’s two out of three… And I am pretty adventurous myself – That’s just the way to be… Please vote for us and wish us all the best, To ensure our selection ….with lots of warmth and zest… No two people deserve this trip the way we do… Do join us in these special moments and witness it all coming true…

Hello Friends, We are Jasmine & Santhosh from the garden city, Bangalore/Bengalooru ( Karnataka, India ). I work as a software engineer here and my better-half, Jasmine is a home-maker at present. We both have our roots in Kerala. But we are brought up in diverse cultures, for my better-half was brought up in Rajasthan and myself in Kerala and a little bit of here and there. We both enjoy travelling , adventure and also being with each other. We are not alike and thats a blessing since we complement and trust each other very well. We also share a passion for various cuisines and we are pretty adventurous about trying new foods. Along with travelling we also love exploring, so much so that, in weekends instead of going to malls/cinema we rather put on walking shoes and walk into nearby roads. This also helped us in getting a sense of directions without a GPS and in finding short-cuts to beat the bangalore traffic!.

Though they have very strong opinion on certain matters of their daily life but at the same time they love to travel, explore different cuisine, good music and movies together. They hate crowded place, noise, bad manners and rough traffic. Both of them are foodie and love to experiment with food in different ways be it from any part or region of India or world. This encourages them certain times to experiment at home be it pasta or couscous. With recent addition to family they are exploring places around Bangalore in car to rejuvenate their weekends to near by places.

Sanjukta Basu & Vinukumar Ranganathan

Total Vote(s) : 115 | Total Testimonial(s) : 2

Make way for Vinu and Sanju the world famous in Bangalore and Mumbai social media stars :) Most techies living in Bangalore active in the last few barcamps and on tweetups and bloggers meets would know us as this awesome blogger photographer couple. Not like a couple couple, we are just friends...you know. Vinu and I know each other through our common passion of blogging, photography and travel. We met through blogs in Jul'07 when we both were in the process of initiating the Bangalore Bloggers community and first Bangalore Bloggers meet. Our friendship grew as we spent more time as members of a Bangalore based photography group on Flickr and when we traveled together as part of the yahoo based weekend backpacker's group, Lets Go which is owned and moderated by me, Sanju. I am a lawyer a social activist, a fiercely independent woman, an aspiring writer and a social media evangelist. If I am not sleeping I am socializing, either off line or on line. And the reason I travel is because, "What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do — especially in other people’s minds. When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don’t have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road."~ William Lease Heat Moon If Vinu is not sleeping he is conceiving that brand new idea which is going to change the world. He is a business developer, an innovator, an ideator, an aspiring story teller and a prolific photographer. A photo documentation expert, in the recent past, his photography skills and enthusiasm were talked about all over the social media and mainstream media when he rushed to ground zero of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack within minutes and took the first shots from the spot. We both are slightly crazy, completely hyperactive and hopelessly romantics...this is going to be one fun ride with our eccentricities likely to hit the ceiling...be prepared for the joy ride :) You guys will vote for us won't you? ~ Sanju Awrite, today is17th July. After collecting the votes and testimonials I am back at this space to give it one final touch. My feeling right now is exactly like what happened after the General Elections, every body was mulling over what went wrong. Vinu and I together have More than 1800 followers on twitter and 900 friends on Facebook, the average number of hits on my blog alone which has a google page rank of 4 is 500 per day, total number of hits on Vinu's flickr stream alone is over a million. Yet, all we could gather is 113 votes and 3 testimonials. Couples with 10% of our social media presence has managed over 1700 votes. Clearly we made some mistake with the promotional campaign. But we leave it on the judges to make a wise decision on various parameters. If writing skill, photography and social media are important parameters no one can beat us :) ~ Sanju

First of all Hi to All our lovely friends. We Sanjeev & Rashmi, we are from Mumbai. I am Ex-serviceman and presently working with one of the most reputed company of India. My wife Rashmi is working with Mumbai Municipal Corporation as an Auditor, she takes care of me and my two grown up heroes. We are married for last 20 years. Being from the defence background we love to take challenges and face new adventures. We want to set an example in front of our kids & young generation and once again prove that the " JAWAN " service person is always a JAWAN. Our participation after retirement from services, will definitely inspire all the young generation to join defence services, as at present the new generation calculates life and success with money earned, and in the race of earning money they have forgotten the actual real meaning of life, seeing the beauty of nature's creation and experiencing the same is enjoyment. By seeing us, they will definitely understand that money is not everything but living a beautiful life with good health and enjoying every creation of nature is actual happy living.

Unlike everyone else my partner is not my wife....nor my girl friend....but what sets us apart is that we share a relationship which is way deeper than that......she is my "MOTHER"!! She (Rajshree Purohit) is a Housewife from Mumbai. She is quite passionate about Traveling, listening to music, cooking and is a hardcore nature lover. I think that we deserve your votes and responses because we are the only MOTHER-AND-SON couple participating in the challenge.

We collided into each other 4 yrs back and that’s when we decided to travel through the joys and sorrows of life together. He works with a MNC as Manager Operations and I am Psychologist, alongside I regularly contribute my articles and quotes to newspapers on topics related to metaphysics and relationships. About us, we are poles apart, with respect to anything and everything, be it habits, strengths, weaknesses, Personality traits, taste buds etc. and indeed this is the essence of our relationship, as we complete each other. Well, but wait …it’s just this one thing common between us and needless to say our all time favorite activity i.e. Travelling. Talk about an adhoc drive till Lonavala at 2am to refurbish our state of insomnia or a planned Goa road trip to rejuvenate ourselves with Rawa fried fish, sand, water and suntan !! Driving is Sangharsh’s passion giving him an adrenaline rush but a hard time for me to get on the steering wheel during our non stop Pune - Goa drives. The roads and directions are always on the side of the gifted navigators like us  hence together we enjoy the rain forests, mountain terrains, sand, soil, dust & rough roads. Okie… we are confident about our skills to overcome this ‘Great Driving Challenge’ but right now we need your love and votes to help us sail through the next phase :o) Thanks Seema & Sangharsh
