The beauty of the city of Thiruvananthapuram.

If you would ask me which is the best summer vacation I had I will tell it is the summer of 2017. The school closed for summer vacations on March 16th. I and my parents already planned a weekend trip to Kovalam Leela Palace. The property was beautiful.

I saw the beauty of the place and cried with excitement. It was so beautiful and breezy. The air was humid. It was evening and the sun was going down but the sun  was still very strong. I was sweating but the cool breeze from the sea blew accross my face and cooled me more than anything. I felt very happy and peaceful. I waited for the sunset. I stared at the horizon. It was beautiful. I went to the beach. I played a lot. Then after that I spent some time in the Swimming pool. Then I got tired and I went to drink tea. Then I went to get dressed for dinners. I went and bathed and got dressed. I ate dinner and I and my parents walked accross the vast property of Leela.
The beauty of sea was dotted with small fishing boats. Then next day we ate breakfast and went to see the lighthouse. It is the most beautiful sight. My friend Rupak has seen the view from the lighthouse. It is very beautiful if you go at the evening or you feel uncomfortable because of the  hot and humid climate.

Then I reached my house. The schedule in my house gave me complete freedom except the first week. First week, I had to go for swimming in the morning. I hate waking up in the morning to go for swimming. Then after two weeks, the drought hit Thiruvananthapuram.  Trivandrum was hit by drought that time after a gap of 24 years. This made the swimming classes stop. I got complete time to play. It was the last vacation with my cousins before going to Bangalore permanently. The schedule starts at 10:30AM. I get up and brush and get dressed.  Then we go to eat in a very good Tamil restaurant. Very tasty dosa and chutney. Then I would go to my mother's house. Then I would start playing with my little sister till 1:30PM. I will be completely covered with sweat after the playing. It is very hot and humid in Thiruvananthapuram. Then I read a lot of books from the big  public library of Trivandrum. After finishing reading my mother takes me to library.  After getting books, my mother takes me to oasis fast food in saphalyam which serves me very tasty sandwiches. That was my favourite nostalgic eatery which I miss in the city if Bangalore. Then I would go the beach almost every month. The mutton chops with a malabar flavour is another loss. I went for many trips that vacation. I went to Leela Kovalam, Nilambur, Kottakal, Kochi many times. Then to get the admission I came to Bangalore.
That vacation was the most beautiful and memorableb vacation in my life till now.

The Journey to South Goa

Image
  The Journey to South Goa We began this journey on the morning of 4th October 2019.  4th October 2019 (Friday) I got up at 4:30AM. I brushed my teeth and got ready. We kept the dental kit inside the bag. We wanted to start before 5AM because it takes around 11 hours to reach Goa by road from Bangalore by car if you go via the Chitradurga- Hubli highway. It was 10 minutes past 5 when the driver showed up at the our house. His name was Ramesh. He was suggested by one of my mother's friend Mr  Toms. He used to work in the hospitality industry. Then I was told to get into the front seat because my father wanted to sleep in the back seat because he had not slept enough the previous night. It was a white Toyota Etios. Then we started the car and drove towards the national highway. The road looked very quiet because it was 5 in the morning. It was drizzling in the morning and because of that it was a bit wet and cold. Then we drove quietly till 6AM. By then we had passe...

Covid-19 economic effects, China's rise, foreign policy and Indian Economy. Introduction I have been writing about my travel experiences all these days. But this one is different and my usual travel stories are not possible now due to covid-19. This post is about economics, diplomacy and covid 19. A different kind of a post. I will be discussing 4 topics in this post. They are economic effects of Covid on the world, China's rise as a global super power and its irresponsible  handling of covid, its aggressive foreign policy and then finally should India choose Capitalization over socialism.  Covid 19 Economic effects Fall in the GDP growth. This pandemic has just taught us how dependent we are on others and how dependent one country is on another country. The shutting down of industries and halting of farming activities have hit the global supply chain resulting in the deficiency of food supplies in many parts of the world. The recent US-China Trade war has resulted in the slow...

India's Foreign Policy

India's Foreign Policy Representative image only Introduction You would have already guessed what this blog is about. Yes, it is about India's Foreign Policy.  India is an emerging power and has the potential to become a superpower. Every country needs good allies to become a super power. India has a huge diplomatic outreach primarily due to its Diaspora. It has always taken a neutral stand during the cold war. India was heading the non aligned movement. Even though India was neutral, it was more dependent on the Soviet Union than the United States. Some of India's economic practices during the cold war era also resembled the policies of Soviet Government. India was very dependent on Soviet Union during the cold war era even though it was neutral.   India's Diplomatic Missions  India's diplomatic and foreign policy is handled by (MEA) Ministry of External Affairs.  Diplomatic missions of India India has diplomatic relations with almost all countries in the world...
