We had done barely any research on Malta before we came to the island. In fact, till a few weeks before the trip I thought the island was Spanish whereas my sister thought it was Italian. In reality, it belongs to neither. Malta is an independent island country comprising an archipelago of 7 islands. We … Continue reading The Maltese Charm

Merry Christmas!
In the past one week I've been to 4 Christmas markets in Germany; 1 in Ingolstadt, 1 in Nuremberg and 2 in Regensburg. Xmas markets for me are all about enjoying the festive atmosphere, walking through myriad of stalls (selling food, drinks, desserts and traditional handicraft) and enjoying the delicious mix of scents from all … Continue reading Merry Christmas!
Love hate relationship…with London
Back from the US, I have a 2 day stopover in London before going to Germany. Today's the first day back and I had the afternoon to myself before seeing some friends in the evening. I decided to come into Central London. First thing I noticed was the underground tubes; so much cleaner and less … Continue reading Love hate relationship…with London
All my bags are packed…I’m ready to go
I am glad I chose to start and end my trip in Boston. I love it here and can totally see myself living here. In fact, the only reason Boston is second to Barcelona (for places I'd like to live in) is because it's in America and not Europe. But the vibe of the city, … Continue reading All my bags are packed…I’m ready to go
Farewell NYC
Back to NYC after a fabulous time with family and friends in Toronto. As much fun as that was, I was super excited to see my friends in NYC again especially since one of them was celebrating his 30th the next day. His birthday was all planned out. We prepared an amazing brunch to start … Continue reading Farewell NYC
More museums and more food
I don't think I could live in Canada, atleast not in the winters. I usually get headaches at the drop of a hat and the cold and wind here is just making it worse for me. So to avoid more pain than needed, and because I enjoy it, I've been going to museums the past … Continue reading More museums and more food
Toronto
Just got back from spending time 2 days with a school friend of mine. Aside from the people I've grown up with, I've been friends with her the longest, 17years! Over that time we've been to school together, been to the same university (but different disciplines), moved to different countries, met up in the UK, … Continue reading Toronto
Home Alone
Around 5 days have passed since Niagara Falls and this is the laziest I've been since I've come to the US! It's a combination of being tired after NY, it being cold outside and my cousin's gorgeous house that has made me stay indoors. The first time I entered the house, when all I could … Continue reading Home Alone
Niagara Falls!
My cousin decided that we should visit the Niagara Falls the day after I reached Canada because the weather was going to be good, max of 2 degrees Celsius. Ha! So off we went the next day. It was a 1.5hr drive to the falls and we used this time to catch up on how … Continue reading Niagara Falls!
Flying to Toronto
So my journey into Canada was a bit of a weird one. It was only 1hr 45mins on the flight from NY but somehow, by the end of it, I was absolutely knackered. The oddities started the night before. While trying to check in online, the AirCanada website was telling me that the airport I … Continue reading Flying to Toronto
