As some of you may know, I recently went to Bermuda and OMG it is by far one of the most beautiful islands I have ever been on.
Here are some of the gorgeous sights that I got to feast my eyes on every day …
| Horse Shoe Bay  |
This looks so beautiful. I would love to sit out in the middle where all the rocks are gathered together and just enjoy the breeze against my skin.

I would love to be here right now. I envy the photographer that managed to capture this image. (and if it’s photo shopped, then don’t tell me – let me enjoy this moment)
Two weekends from now – I’ll be in Bermuda and maybe I might get a pic like this myself.
Found this over on TheGirlThing.com and had to share this with you all. I would love to go through a tunnel like this – whether it be by train or car or even walking.
There’s something about being surrounded and totally encompassed by nature that appeals to me. It sort of takes me to another place – away from the every day things that tend to clutter ones mind. There’s a serenity in nature that just takes my breath away.
I wish I was on that hammock right now. I just want to be near the water, somewhere surrounded by nature watching a beautiful sunset. (With someone special would be an added bonus)
I smiled when I saw this and knew I just had to share with you all. Doesn’t this remind you of a box of scattered colour pencils ? I haven’t used colour pencils in the longest time and wouldn’t mind grabbing a few and see what comes of it !
What’s your first thought when you see this picture ? What memory does it evoke ?
Don’t forget to share your linky below !
Awwww !!! Isn’t this just the most adorable photo ever ??!! I wouldn’t mind having a baby cub put their lil’ paws around me ! If you haven’t already guessed, I’m a sucker for the big cats (not the house cats) and seeing cute pics like this just make me want to get a cub for myself !
Found this via the Creative Journal which was featuring photos from the International Photography Awards (2011) site and had to share it.
If you are taking part in the Ultimate Blog Challenge then don’t forget to share your link below so that we can all come check your blog out.That’s the life !!I I would kill to be at this spot right now ! The last few weeks have taken their toll on and I feel absolutely shattered. I just want unwind and take some time to myself.
The minute I saw this photo, I knew that’s where I wanted to be. This idyllic location is at Indigo Bay Resort and Spa located on Bazaruto Island off the coast of Mozambique. Maybe I should book a flight there !
I’m a big fan of sun-sets … Took this photo from my grandparents terrace .. lucky for me I can find a haven in this bustling city ! So what if I can’t sit by the beaches of Mauritius – at least I have a lovely view.
These photos were taken at the Dead Sea from the Jordanian side. The mountains you see at the horizon are from the Palestine / Israel side. The first hour we were at the Dead Sea it was calm, clear skies and waters; and from the above photo you can faintly see the rain cloud and concentrated rainfall.
By the time the rain cloud got closer – my mate Sabs and I were just floating in awe staring at the formation moving towards us. Everyone seemed to have run out of the water (why would you get out of water if it’s raining – you’re already wet !)
And when the rain hit us – it was almost painful – that’s how large the drops were – coming down hard and fast.
It was awesome !! Quite literally – the calm before the storm.
I took this picture last week from a moving train whilst en-route from Delhi to Amritsar. It must have been about 7:30 am or so and the air was crisp and chilly. There was this mist in the air, an early morning fog if you could call it that .. but I loved it.
The view made me keep looking out into the horizon. Great way to start the morning.
I wish I was back at this waterfall ! I was in Mauritius last week for an Edu-Tour of some new properties for events; and we went out for a picnic in the nature reserve … tucked away within 10 hectares of nature – this was 1 of 5 waterfalls on the reserve.
I didn’t have my bikini with me – otherwise I would have been swimming in there ! but I did cross into the falls and get up to the rocks and managed to get some of that fresh water splashing all over me =)
Have you been to any nice waterfalls and where ? Don’t you find them to be soothing ? I love to just sit down on the grass or some rocks – soak my feet in the water and watch the water flow from the top of the falls down into the rock pools or streams.
Have a lovely Wednesday ! Don’t forget to share your #WW link if you are participating !
Hats off to whoever took this photograph !! I got it from my friend Sabu who had it as her profile pic on FaceBook. However I did discover that this photograph has been floating on the internet from the first week of July.
Hope this brings a smile to your face :)
I found this picture on Google images and felt a calmness wash over me whilst I just took in the sheer beauty of it. I grew up in Dubai and often found an escape in the desert; especially around the time of sun-set. The desert air cools down almost the minute the sun goes into hiding; and it can get pretty chilly at night.
All I want right now is to lay back against the sands, with a hookah (or sheesha as some may know it) and just ‘chill’. What about you ? Have you ever enjoyed the warmth of the desert ? Have you ever been camping in the desert ? It’s a lot of fun =)

Isn’t this just stunning ?? UK based photographer Pete Barnes took this sunset photograph over a small lake … the water is so flat !! and the colours !! It took my breath away ! Don’t forget to check out the rest of his work on his website.
I came across this mini-natural fall whilst on route to Lonavala from Bombay over the weekend. I’m a sucker for a nature – and couldn’t resist stopping the car to get a few pics =)
What do you think ? Isn’t the picture just so serene ?
My BBBFF The Fabulous Bitch wrote a fab post on Must Have Fab Bitch Mood Enhancers and I couldn’t agree with her more ! I’m pretty certain that you (yes you turning around) have a special something that totally boosts your mood and helps turn your day around …
Sure in this day and age – some things we desire are superficial and materialistic .. such a damn shame they are the cause of pleasure in our lives ! I could probably rattle off a never ending list of things, people, places that lift my mood but for the purpose of this post (and so as not to lose your interest completely) I’ll just stick to the top 7 (don’t ask me why its 7 – ask The Fabulous One as I’m just following her post)
Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior
This is one perfume that gets my hormones in over drive and makes me feel like a true Diva ! I don’t know any true blooded man who can resist this scent … If I feel good and smell good – there’s no stopping the diva in me on a night out :)
If you haven’t already tried this – then I highly recommend it. And if you don’t feel like a diva – then I’ll change my name (ok maybe I won’t but still – try it!)
A Full Body Massage
Ok so it’s not like I have a boyfriend who can drop everything to give me a massage – but I’ve found the best pick-me-up comes in the form a body massage. It could be a back massage, a foot massage, a head & shoulder massage – any or all of them make for a great mood enhancer.
No boyfriend means that I have to find an alternative … my mum has found a lady who comes home for massages – and I manage to spoil myself with one at least 3 times a week :) Now that’s the way the Diva rolls ! I just have to reach her how to manage a Thai massage and then I’m sorted !
Skype
Yup that’s right – I said Skype. I can’t begin to describe what a buzz it is to hear that ringing sound and knowing that within a few seconds I’d be able to ‘see’ my friends who live overseas. Its quick, easy and best of all FREE (ok fine not really fully free since I do have to pay internet bills – but its still better than paying an arm & a leg for a phone bill). Besides, having an ex compliment you face-to-face always creates a mood lift :P
Wine & Cheese
Like The Fabulous One I do like me a nice chilled glass of sweet white wine. Throw in an assortment of divine cheeses; some grapes and crackers and I’ll be on my way to the heavens :)
If you’ve never had a W&C party before – then do check out the article Wine 7 Cheese by John St Mark
Give me white, milk or dark chocolate and you’ll see the smile across my face for the whole day. It’s one of my guilty pleasures ! The past few weeks – I’ve been going through various mood swings and I find that the only solution to them is either Galaxy or Toblerone chocolate. I love the way Galaxy pieces melt in your mouth. I break off a piece, and leave it in my mouth to melt away – and let those mini orgasmic waves take over my senses ! Damn I want some Galaxy right now !
With the summer coming along in full force here in Bombay – the only thing that lifts my spirits in the morning is a tall glass of Cold Coffee or Coffee Milkshake. It’s not as strong as a regular cup of coffee nor is it too sweet .. its just the right blend and teases the palate … and I find it more addictive than regular coffee. It’s extremely refreshing – there’s the buzz of caffeine combined with a cool taste – a perfect morning mood lifter.
Of course the real deal would make soar into the sky – but I believe in reality – so will be happy to stare at my laptop or phone where I can have numerous hot men stare right back at me ! It just seems to me that Bombay is currently lacking severely in the ‘hot men’ category and since I’m not a Bollywood celebrity stalker – the regular guys aren’t quite cutting it for me … So eye candy it is – all on my laptop and just for moi :)
Now that you know my must-have mood enhancers – what are yours ? Do you crave the same things that The Fabulous One and I seek out ? Or must you have something that would put our must-haves to shame ? Don’t forget to leave a comment; and if you decide to create your own post – make sure you share your link !
