If you've followed me a long time, you've seen my transition from a "#linkblogger" (5-15 short hits/day) to an "essay-#blogger" (5-7 articles/week). I'm loving the new mode but returning to linkblogging is also intensely, unexpectedly gratifying:

Took an @IndiGo6E flight on 3rd Jan from Riyadh to Surat via Delhi. My bags were tagged for STV (Surat) and I did think that I will receive my bags at the Surat airport, but - as I found out later - according to the laws, I personally have to custom clear it in Delhi ......
and then re-check-in there for Surat.
I had 7 hours layover in Delhi. Because of my misunderstanding, I left the landing terminal T3 and headed out without taking my luggage. After some 1:30 hour, I receive a phone call from @IndiGo6E personnel explaining the situation.....

and asking me to come back and pick up my luggage. After another 1:30 hour, I go back to collect my 2 bags.
Upon my reaching, he comes out and gets me inside the terminal and then points me to a completely un-attended area where several bags were parked.

2. This time, a guy from Maharashtra's Devrashtre village caught the industrialist's attention last year in December, with his unique creation. A one of a kind #jugaad vehicle that's made with metal scraps and spare parts. 2/10

We are back from a really awesome trip to #Taiwan. In hindsight, delighted that we picked Taiwan, instead of the more common places that Indians typically go to.
Noticed a lot of things that struck us as unique in this trip, so here is a compilation #PPinTaiwan (1/n)

(2/n) How did we choose Taiwan? @AirAsia was running a sale last August when Preethika noticed a good deal, and in a spur of the moment decision, we decided to go there. Yes, the flight tickets were bought 9 months ago. #PPinTaiwan
(3/n) Firstly, getting a visa to Taiwan is pretty easy, especially if you have had a US, UK, Schengen etc visa in the last 10 years. Yes, even if it is expired, it is fine. More details here: passingports.com/taiwan-visa-fo…
Thanks to this, visa for the both of us was free #PPinTaiwan
