We all make mistakes while planning trips. I made one during my recent Hyderabad-Delhi-Pilani trip and it burnt a big hole in my pocket. But then, I didn’t really have a choice. Earlier this month, I decided to go to my college (BITS-Pilani) probably for one last time before it’s too late. Last year in [...]

July 14th, 2009. Somewhere in Kuala Lumpur. 11:30 AM Damn! I had woken up a tad too late. The glasses of wine and God Knows what else had worked like magic. When it comes to wine, it’s definitely not easy to resist one more helping, especially if you fall in love with the idea that [...]
Hello, Young Man! Want Massage?

July 14th, 2009 1:3o AM…Somewhere in Kuala Lumpur They were everywhere! Just about everywhere. It’s scary to see something like that past midnight in streets close to Petronas Towers.
