Resuscitating this blog

So am resuscitating here after 3 months (not 3 days). Its not that I haven't travelled or have nothing to say but temporary mis-management of time and procrastination has led to such a gap. I hope to get into habit of posting regularly once again with this one.

So just to keep my blog updated and to remind myself more than anyone, here is what happened since my last post: I had the opportunity to publish three travel articles in an online travel magazine called Sharing Travel Experiences in the last few months. These articles were a combination of revamped old posts and new ones -
  1. Mexico City, Before the Mayan Apocalypse
    A whirlwind tour of the best of Mexico City sightseeing - volcanoes, history, food, and more! This is a revamp of my
    old blogpost.
  2. Exploring Churchill, Polar Bear Capital of the World
    Who would imagine that a very small town in a cold, remote location in Canada could attract thousands of tourists from all over the world? But Churchill does seem to have something exiting to offer...
  3. Journey to the Centre of India
    Exploring Madhya Pradesh travel, a journey to the center of India. Photography, tips, and recommendations in spades! This is a revamp of my old blogpost.
I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and learnt some useful things about travel writing and publishing along the way. I have tried different styles in each article. The first was true blog style, second was travel guide style and third was a photo essay style. I got some good reviews and the website's traffic suggested that these articles were some of their most popular ones. So two woots for that ..


WOOT! WOOT!
