In the past few months, I was contacted by two different places in the blogosphere for a feature. Both were exciting opportunities and both, things of joy and honor. Now, that they have gotten through, I am very happy to share them with all of you here!

So, here they go -

1. Interview @ BlogAdda:

I had the honor of answering some questions revolving around me and My Yatra Diary... prepared by the Indian Blogging community – BlogAdda. Personally, answering the questionnaire made for a good time for reflection on something that I have been doing for a few years now.

Here is an excerpt,
Q: You travel to places of religious importance. Infact, your blog started off with a post on Haridwar, the most famous pilgrimage city of India. Is there any reason to follow a niche for your travel?
A: I love traveling to places of religious or historical importance. Just to think that these are the same places that my forefathers or ancestors once walked on, gives me a lot of personal satisfaction, peace and solace.

2. Food Feature:

Mark Wiens, a passionate traveller and a self confessed food lover from Migrationology.com was in the process of scouting 33 food passionate travel bloggers for his article - "33 Foods Worth Traveling Across the World Just to Eat". When he invited me to chip in as one of the bloggers with my recommendation, I was thrilled and instantly agreed to it. Apart from being a great opportunity, it was a huge honor for me to be a part of something that I thought was a highly tempting and a very creative concept uniting travel bloggers from all round the world, sharing their common love for food and travel.

Please do check them out and let me know how I fared. I always very eagerly wait to hear from you. Thank you. :-)

PS: I will be traveling for the whole of next week, hence I have scheduled this post to be  published automatically. Will be back very very soon, till then... take care and keep blogging!
