From Mumbai adventures to a cancelled train, here’s the emotional rollercoaster we never saw coming. Read on to discover how our journey to Nepal ended before it even began. Today is 13th April — the day our long-awaited journey to Nepal was supposed to begin. We had planned to travel by train, packed with excitement and dreams. But everything came crashing down with just one heartbreaking message . The day started with so much hope. I woke up early, completed my last-minute packing, although I was feeling a bit uneasy. Out of nowhere, I started coughing and even vomited. Still, I pulled myself together, prayed like every day, took blessings, and booked a cab to the bus station. We boarded a bus to Mumbai, costing ₹950 for two people. By 5 PM, we reached Dadar, Mumbai. Since our train to Nepal was scheduled at 10 PM, we thought of exploring a few places to kill time. Unfortunately, all the places I had planned to visit remained a dream because the taxi drivers were charging crazy amo...

Bangalore Travel Day 1 – Metro, Bike Rental, Food & Real Experience Our Bangalore trip started on a slightly chaotic note. Thanks to a 2-hour train delay, we reached the city around 6 PM instead of the planned 4 PM. Frustration levels? High. Hunger levels? Even higher. To make matters worse, we had some interesting (annoying) co-passengers on the train. Picture this: a family munching nonstop like they hadn’t eaten in a month, along with hyperactive kids who somehow found endless ways to entertain—or irritate—everyone around them. 🚉 Arrival in Bangalore – First Impressions Despite the delay and chaos, there was still excitement as we finally arrived in Bangalore. Instead of opting for expensive cabs or autos, we decided to take the metro to save both time and money. 🚇 Metro Travel from Yeshwantpur to Lalbagh We took the metro from Yeshwantpur to Lalbagh, which cost ₹33 per person, along with an unexpected ₹30 luggage charge. The journey took around 30 minutes and was honestly a s...

A Day in Pune Before My Bangalore Trip – Food, Movie & Night Train Journey Today marked the start of our journey to Bangalore, though the actual trip kicks off tomorrow. With our train from Pune Junction scheduled for 8:30 PM, we had a full day to make the most of. So we decided to spend it indulging in good food, catching a movie, and simply enjoying some quality time together before the journey began. 🌆 A Chill Day in Pune Before the Journey Since we had several hours before our train, we planned a relaxed day around the city. It felt nice to not rush and just go with the flow, knowing we had an exciting trip ahead. 🍲 Lunch at Mandala Hotpot – A Filling Start We kicked things off with lunch at Mandala Hotpot, where we treated ourselves to some delicious Korean hotpot. The flavors were absolutely on point, and the portion size was generous enough to leave us completely stuffed. It took us nearly two hours to finish (totally worth it!), and if you enjoy Korean f...

Recently, I visited Si Nonna’s again. I hadn’t planned on going back, but it just happened. It was a very cold night, and I was craving pizza, so we decided to go there. This time, we ordered pizza number 4, which consisted of fior di latte mozzarella, ricotta cheese, blue cheese, aged parmesan, homemade jalapeño salsa, homemade cherry tomato confit, fresh basil, and EVOO. We also ordered mozzarella and jalapeño croquettes. First, the croquettes arrived. They were okay, but not great. The filling was small, and there wasn’t enough of it, so I wasn’t particularly impressed. Then, our pizza came. We added a little more olive oil and tried to do a cheese pull, but it didn’t work out as expected. However, the taste of the pizza was really good — flavorful and satisfying. Although we were pretty full, there’s always room for dessert, right? I saw gelato and decided to try some. I ordered Sicilian pistachio gelato. It turned out to be delicious — so tasty from the very first bite. I stil...

Went to this substitute place situated near fc road, Pune. It was too much crowded but we got some place to sit.    Another substitute for Camp and Kp burger, nearby FC road. One-time visit to try the burger. The veg burger was good, but it wasn't even fitting in hand even though it was cut into two pieces. The food is affordable with a large quantity, but the hygiene is lacking. The seating area is congested and crowded, needing more space for seating. The cheeseburger only cost us Rs.75/- Overall experience: 3.5/5 Location:  Shop no 26, Madhu Vrindavan Society, Near, JP Trivedi Road, Sud Nagar, Shivajinagar, Pune, Maharashtra 411018
