Featured moment
Where our story began
Every great journey has a first step. Ours was barefoot on Bhuigaon beach in Vasai, where we decided to spend the rest of our lives together.
Featured moment
Standing above the Baahubali waterfall
Famous as the "Baahubali waterfall", the falls where the film's iconic scenes were shot. The monsoon had swollen the river, and Athirappilly thundered below us as mist rose over a valley of endless green.
Featured moment
Our little blue cottage
Hats on, sunglasses ready and a cosy cottage among the palms. The kind of stay that makes every trip feel like home.
Featured moment
Where India watches the stars
We climbed the stony ridge to the observatory at Hanle, one of the highest in the world, under a sky so blue it hardly felt real.
Featured moment
The road that leads to the snow
Snow-streaked peaks, clouds resting on the summit and a lone truck on a ribbon of road. Every bend on the way to Ladakh looked like a postcard.

Moments we keep coming back to
“Drifting across a still Dal Lake at sunrise, with only the sound of the paddle.”
“Watching the sun rise over the sea at Kanyakumari, at the very tip of India.”
“The moment the first snowflakes fell at Baralacha and none of us could stop smiling.”
