The vast ocean is always calling out to me. Calling out to me to look at it, feel it and get engulfed in it's beauty. This is true beauty. Beauty without boundaries or reason. Just free flowing crazy natural gorgeousness. Doing 💙 a lil too often. But the ocean stirs my heart! #dealwithit #manly #ManlyBeach #Australia #australiadiaries #StudentLife #studyandtravel #sundaywellspent #ByTheSea #myfavourite #travel #mytravelgram #traveldiaries #sydneyigers A post shared by Anushree Tricannad (@anushreetricannad) on Sep 11, 2016 at 8:59am PDT One of my first outings in Sydney, Australia.

Someday I will move mountains. This time I just decided to climb one.

Traveled through this iconic bridge a million times.  On foot, by train and by ferry.  Gaped at it from all directions. Marvelled at its sheer beauty. Read the story of its existence. Some images get imprinted in your minds for forever. This is definitely one of them. Harbour Bridge,  Opposite the  Sydney Opera House,  December 2016

I am a too many things in one kind of person. Beach Bum. Water Baby. Top of the Rock. Look at the Mountains. Lets make a Snowman. Sit on the back of a Camel. And so much more. There are some places that I've visited that are so beautiful, tranquil and out of this world that they deserve a special mention. When I close my eyes these are the places that pop up in my mind in slideshow mode. The ❤ Collection will showcase a series of pictures from the places that I have traveled to that literally " Have My Heart ". ❤ #1 Batam, Indonesia July 2016

Bali is an Indonesian island known for its pristine beaches , beautiful temples and street food. There are a host of Indonesian delicacies that one would come across while walking along any road in this beautiful island. The food they serve in these small eateries ( “Warungs”) looks tempting and is too difficult to resist. Since the Indonesian Rupaiah runs in lakhs don’t be surprised if you are asked to pay up two lakh rupees for a simple dish. On my recent trip to Bali I ended up gorging on authentic Balinese/Indonesian cuisine ; right from street vendors to fancy hotels. The best part is they customize their non-veg dishes to suit the vegetarian palate too. Here are a few items that I devoured on the trip and absolutely loved. 1) Bakso This is a traditional Indonesian delicacy and one of the most popular ones. You will find plenty of street vendors selling Bakso along the streets of Bali. It is an eclectic mix of  tangy,spicy soup, meat balls, wontons, tofu and noodles....

I've gone to Gokarna three times in a row. 2013, 2014 and 2015 and I know the three times is most definitely going to increase to uncountable number of times. Gokarna is actually a temple town in Karnataka,India. Devout people come there only to visit the Gokarnanatha Temple in the main town and see  (dirty) Gokarna Beach. We chose to go away from the usual track and explore the beaches on the other side of town. The first time around we took a train from Bangalore (Yeshwanthpur Station) and got off at the Gokarna Road railway station. The next time we boarded a bus from Navrang Stop at Rajajinagar and got off at the Gokarna Bus Stop. The third time around we boarded the bus from the same stop as above but got off at Kumta since we decided on having a detour before heading to Gokarn (Goks as we call it). Note : I might have to include some images from the internet as my hard disk has got corrupted and I have lost a significant number of pictures :( THINGS TO DO IN GOKARNA ...

Went on a family holiday recently after ages. It has been our desire to visit the Golden Temple and pay our respects. DAY 1 : We took a flight an afternoon flight from Bangalore to Delhi and then another one from Delhi to Amritsar. We had an amazing lunch in the flight thanks to Jet Airways. We reached Amritsar in the evening and were welcomed with a bouquet of flowers at the Airport by the Manager and our driver from  Premium Luxury Travels . We were then driven to our residence for the next two days - The Ritz Plaza . The rooms were lavish and extremely clean. Since we reached post sunset we decided to give The Golden Temple a visit and see it in all it's shining glory. The Golden Temple is surrounded by a huge complex on all four sides. As soon as you enter the complex you are in awe of what you see. It is a beautiful glistening image of the temple structure in the middle of the water. There is extremely cool breeze blowing on all sides and the music that is play...
