My Story

Here is another story that I wrote:

The Treasure Caves

Once upon a time there lived a poor young boy named Jack. Jack’s mother and father met with an accident and died, when he was about 4 years old. Jack is 12 years old now and he has forgotten how his parents looked because they were to poor to buy a camera. Now Jack’s aunt is looking after him. When he turned 26 years old, he left and lived by himself. One day Jack thought that he must start earning money. But Jack did not know anything about computers because he never went to school. He thought he must go on treasure hunts.



He thought how we go on treasure hunts. He remembered reading in a book that in the forest if you dig the “x” mark you will find only one clue. He went to the forest and dug up the “x” 652 feet deep. He was counting “152” feet “252” feet…. And so on. He found the clue. In the clue paper there were 6 clues and the clues told him that he must go to the golden caves and fight a big enormous snake and then dig 600 feet deep and find how to go to the treasure caves. Then he went home and slept.

The next morning when he was reading the clues again he thought of getting an assistant. So then he thought who is a good assistant. Then he remembered that his aunt is a good assistant. So he called he called his aunt and asked if she would help him finding the treasure. She said surely and she came.

So then the next day they set of for their treasure hunt. So then the first thing they had to do is they had to go to the Golden Caves. In the Golden Caves they had to dig the red “x” not in any other color ‘x” if they did a snake would come and kill them. So then they dug up 354 feet down and got the treasure. Then they went back home and opened the treasure box and counted how many gold coins were there. There were 1 lakh gold Coins in the box! They were so happy that they said that they will buy a villa, television and a camera. So then they went for treasure hunts for the next 2 years and then their wish came true.

THE END

    Dearest Sanjith,
    Your stories are getting better & better.
    I am very proud of your creativity. Keep going. Veera Uncle might just be able to make a movie on your stories some day.
    Your pop's suggestion too is a good one. A sequel sounds fantastic. Then a trilogy maybe?
    Love

The Great Omani Coastal Route

Route 15 : Muscat-Nizwa The parents, seemingly forever, had been planning a trip to Oman. Why Oman? Well, that’s a question I asked myself too. My dad, in the 90s, spent close to a decade in the UAE but barring a work trip, had never visited Oman. Fast forward to the 21 st   century, countless Oman Air flights from India to Europe later, he found himself stranded in Muscat. A ‘technical difficulty’ they said. He visited the Sultan Qaboos Mosque but didn’t get to see much more – it was only a 24-hour layover. However, the constant propaganda he was subjected to via the in-flight entertainment, and the cabin crew he made conversation with, convinced him that the country has a lot to offer. A friend from the UAE, who spoke highly of Oman, apparently also played a role.     The parents had their mind set on Oman. The stars aligned and clubbing together a bunch of bank holidays in India, they decided on visiting in April. Unfortunately, or fortunately (the jury is still out), ...

Visiting the Kasturinagar (KA-03) RTO - a tumultuous but manageable experience to get a Learner's/ Driver's License without an agent/ driving school

Ask anyone, and I can guarantee that they will have a story (and in most cases, many stories) about their trip, or rather, numerous trips to the RTO for something as simple as getting a Learner's License (LL) or a Driver's License (DL). In this blog, I hope to make your life a tad bit easier by guiding you through the entire process, which may seem easy at first but is full of (overcome able) challenges if you know what you are doing. I turned 18 in January this year, and besides cutting a cake, I worked on my LL application online. I challenged myself to complete the entire LL to DL process by myself and without the help of an agent or a driving school, unlike what the majority do. The lengthy application process and multiple visits to the RTO, impressed upon me why most people decided to pay a little extra to get an agent to do it for them. Still, I was determined not to pay a single rupee more than the official cost. I succeeded.  Do note that this answer is concerning the K...

Beating the winter blues - Morocco

  After having spent just over two months in England, with short trips to America’s east coast on work and Paris for Diwali, I was itching to travel somewhere new – somewhere I hadn’t been before.     I found myself in one of the study rooms at university, unable to focus on my readings. Winter was setting in. The days were getting shorter, London was getting greyer, and the sun had gone into hibernation. An important question was running in my mind – one that would determine how I would overcome the impending winter blues – what will I do during the Christmas break? A typical international student’s response would be simple – book a return ticket to your home country. However, as a seasoned international student, my response had to be different, right? With a not-so-powerful passport in hand, I grappled with my options. Limited by choices of visa-regime friendly choices, I first laid out a bunch of criteria for an anti-winter blues holiday of choice. I wanted three thing...

Living life out of a suitcase

  December 2022 As I sit on my fourteenth flight for the year, with two more scheduled before the curtains are drawn on 2022 (god bless my carbon footprint), laptop open, a glass of wine and a blank word document, I begin to ponder over my journey over the last few months. Penning it down and (at the risk of sounding philosophical) ‘reflecting’ on this journey seems imperative.  --- May 2022   After two wonderful years of ups and downs in Le Havre (thank you, COVID-19!), I said my good-byes, packed my bags and was on the train to Paris. But that was not my final destination – for now at least. After spending two nights at a friend’s, dropping my baggage off at a relative’s, catching the French Open and a round of golf in the middle, and a train to Beauvais (an hour north of Paris), I was on a flight to Barcelona. Checked in to my hostel, met my friend, went for 3 days of the Barcelona Formula 1 Grand Prix together, watched a Redbull 1-2 finish, celebrated with beer, sangr...

My New Cycle Horn

So I got this idea. People love my horn and everybody touches it. It makes and pom-pom sound. Here is a picture of the horn:
