so i was thinking all day (and/or for weeks) on why my pics never get explored. there must be a darn good reason for this, i get must ass busted for absconding from work to travel to crazy places to capture these pics. jungles, rives, ghost towns…og come on… i tortured my car with 50000 km in 1 year … where is my explored photos!!!!

my 09 first half of the year dopplr report came today, i made good milage this year, friggin traveled to san francisco, and still no explore photo. yep, im jealous at all the photos that get explored and mine which doesnt get explored… 🙁 😛 there I said it.

okay, now that I got that out of my sleepy head (counting to 23 hours no sleep + work) lets talk.

This pic, is taken last year at a hill fort/ fort on the hill, in pune. – Sinhagad.

Pune is a beautiful city in India, where my best buddies Nayan (and) Manisha lives. Manisha took me to this fort, which was about an hours drive from the city. almost all of the photos in this Pune set are taken at this hills.

(am i making this sound like a 2nd grade story?)

in the pic is the ever famous indian snack, a bajji, this one is the onion bajji, with slightly fried chili and some chili dip. the best in the world, the best.

been thinking alot lately of just packing my bag and flying of to india again, work has been hell. Hell. the thing about being a translator, and being a darn good one at that – – no kidding, i really am. (no im not drunk). seriously, ok, that’s my self motivation. The thing about being a translator is that, no fcking client actually appreciates your work, get paid peanuts to do work, though those peanuts are in USD, still, you feel its such a letdown thinking that for the work you do, life could just be a little more organized. I cant go on non sleeping like this, and the last time this happened, it was during a huge project from some ‘M’-soft company…and i broke down, — which made me get on that plane to India one the first place.

so I think my salvation is India, with love or no love, with motivation or no motivation. its just a great escapist dream, just like the great tepuis of south america that I want to explore, or the amazons, or the great rain forests of South east asia.

India is just calm, and ‘still’, just the way the doctor prescribed :p

enough with the wanderlust, rant.

this explored rant, comes with some question. how important is your work, how do you gauge it. do we need to gauge it, why do we want Not to be stuck in the rat race, is it all about money?

its about appreciation, about feeling satisfied that you have done something…i guess.

for me, i just want to leave, and catch the next plane to chennai or bangalore. and this time, to never come back (never say never)…
