CHOM ARUN a sweet Bangkok restaurant

CHOM ARUN  a sweet Bangkok restaurant
Destinations / Food & drink / Restaurants / Thailand / Travel January 25, 2023 January 25, 2023 Leave a comment

Today I learned that the Thai word “chom” means to see, watch or look. And since “Chom Arun”, the pretty restaurant where we had lunch today, is situated bang opposite the iconic Wat Arun, on Bangkok’s Chao Phraya river, the name couldn’t be better chosen. I can imagine this being …

BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON

BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON
Entertainment / Film / Movie December 26, 2021 December 26, 2021 2 Comments

So, here’s the thing. The weather and pollution in New Delhi (where I live) were so bad today that the scheduled Sunday long run had to be converted to a session on the treadmill. Feeling very despondent – I’ve been injured, had major medical problems this year, and then there’s …

WHITE MAGIC ADVENTURE TRAVEL.  STILL THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS
India / Travel October 5, 2021 March 28, 2022 1 comment

I have just returned from yet another wonderful trip to Gangotri 1 with White Magic, and in my other, personal blog, I’ve written a report of my climb which was wonderful despite my not summiting. This review, however, is not about me, but all about WM and their service. Spoiler …

STAYING AT “FOR A WHILE” IN HIMACHAL PRADESH

STAYING AT “FOR A WHILE” IN HIMACHAL PRADESH
Hotels / India / Travel July 6, 2021 July 6, 2021 11 Comments

I’m beginning this review with a disclaimer: namely that the owners of the fabulous Himalayan cottages For a While, Shalini and Dam, are good friends. But just because they are friends doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be reviewed, right? We met Shalini & Dam many years ago, while staying with other …

Staying at Labboo’z Café & Lodge, Maheshwar

Staying at Labboo’z Café & Lodge, Maheshwar
Destinations / Hotels / India March 8, 2021 December 11, 2021 Leave a comment

On our just-concluded 4,500km road trip down to Karnataka, we overnighted in this delightful little hotel in Maheshwar and what a sweet, quirky place it is. Butbefore I go any further, the main thing you need to know is that the rooms in Labboo’z are small. At 19 square metres, …

Deo Bagh in Gwalior

Deo Bagh in Gwalior
Food & drink / Hotels / India March 7, 2021 March 7, 2021 6 Comments

Gwalior was the last stop on our just-concluded 4,500km road trip down to Karnataka and back to Delhi, and when we read about the Neemrana property Deo Bagh, it was agreed that this would be the perfect end to an epic trip. Deo Bagh did not disappoint. Despite the current …

Eating at Morgan’s Place in Bundi
Destinations / Food & drink / India March 5, 2021 March 5, 2021 1 comment

Arriving in Bundi in India’s Rajasthan during Coronavirus was a weird experience. We were a party of 4, and were the ONLY tourists in town. As in the ONLY ones. Our hotel was operating only a skeleton service, so we looked for somewhere to eat out, but many places were …

Dev Niwas in Bundi
Destinations / Hotels / India March 4, 2021 March 4, 2021 6 Comments

Since COVID-19 upended all our lives, we have scarcely travelled, and the little we have done has been to stay with friends, or in home-stays run by friends. So the current trip we are on right now, driving down to south India, was our first experience of staying in “normal” …

We have recently returned from a super trip to the jungles of Madhya Pradesh, staying in 3 properties owned and managed by the same company, the Jehan Numa Group of Hotels. I have already reviewed here in this blog the Jehan Numa Palace Hotel in Bhopal, where we overnighted on …
