Nirvana is a blog section dedicated to travel in the UAE and beyond. In this section, I provide travel tips, hotels and my experiences on the go. I also happen to be a fan of the famous UAE staycations, so check back in here even if you are a tourist! Several aspects of my travels and will include several budget recommendations. I often summarise my total experience to give you a good idea and feel of the places to visit.

As I’m an adrenalin seeker and adventurous by nature, you’ll see a lot of that in this section. :) You’ll always see me hiking and trying out different water sports in the various countries I visit, but I do also enjoy history and culture. My favourite thing to do in a new city is to walk around, so make sure you follow me on my Instagram as I explore the world on my days off. The travel perspective is specific to those who travel from Dubai and or UAE, so I’ll provide you with the most budget-friendly resources to work with.

  • Went out with the cousins last night in Bombay (I know it’s Mumbai, but it’s always Bombay for me) and we ended up at The Little Door which is this charming hole in the wall spot with a wide selection of drinks and delishhh food, ranging from Greek cuisine to Spanish favorites all with a twist. It was awesome! Have any other recommendations? #HelloMumbai #bombaydiaries #Dametraveler #mumbainightlife #mumbai_ig #mumbai_uncensored

  • I completely forgot to post about this! Maybe because I wanted to keep the experience to myself a little longer. My crazy trip to Thailand circled only around one thing - a confirmed reservation at Gaggan. I only booked my ticket after I got a confirmation. And man, what a trip. My first @michelinguide experience was going to Jordi Cruz’s Angle in Barcelona. I was underwhelmed. Since a very mediocre experience, I was worried Gaggan wouldn’t be what everyone said it was. Let’s just say it surpassed all my expectations. This dining experience was one of the most memorable meals in my life. It fully and completely deserves its place as #1 on Asia’s best restaurants. I won’t delve any more details of the meal (because I don’t wanna ruin the surprises), but make sure you get a reservation and go for the chef’s table experience. Before 2020, of course. . . . . . #foodlovers #Gaggan #GagganAnand #worlds50best #finedining #michelinstar #michelinguide #Bangkokeats #Thailand #Chefstable #Dubaiblogger #UAEblogger #Dubaitravelblogger #travelblogger #passionpassport #wanderlust #travelstoke #nirvana #instatravel #travelgram #traveling #thatsdarling #iphoneography #snapseed #vsco #shotoniphone #igdaily #instagood

  • From today onwards, I’m going to tell everyone I know how lovely & delicious Bangalore’s grub scene is! I was there only for a short while, but managed to try the food at a couple of restaurants & bars. & MAN. The food is epic. I have no other words. Here was my second food stop, @thefattybaoblr. This place is perfect for those who love south East Asian food. From Nasi Lemak to Baos, there’s something for everyone! Can’t wait to go back, but only once I’ve tried a million other restaurants! . . . . . #grubstreet #IndiraNagar #Bangalore #Bengaluru #Bengalurueats #eatBangalore #bangalorefoodies #bangalorediaries #zomatoindia #zomatobangalore #eeeeeats #culinarywriter #FoodBlogger #Culinarytravel #delish #FattyBao #NominBangalore #Nomwithme #forkfeed #buzzfeast #foodbeast #eeeeeats #liveauthentic #eatfamous #dailyfoodfeed #onthetable #heresmyfood #eattheworld #foodiesofinstagram
  • Just call me an “elephant whisperer” here on out! 🐘 Visited an amazing sanctuary called Elephant Nature Park today and I was in tears when I heard about their stories and the fact that a lot of parks actually abuse the term “sanctuary” and scam tourists. Do your research, guys! Luckily, this park takes very good care of them and is responsible.
  • Chiang Mai has been considerably better to us! After a somewhat ok visit sans views at Doi Suthep, we really enjoyed our first culinary experience at Mama Noi! For 800 bahts, you can choose to make 3 dishes - a soup (I chose the tom yum), a stir fry/ pad Thai and a curry! Each person has their own cooking station, they arrange transport and even hand you a cooking book after! The experience is at a charming farmhouse with organic garden as well as a trip to the markets as well with an orientation to Thai spices! More on my stories! P.s. Thai food is naturally gluten and dairy free save for their milk iced teas! . . . . . #cookingclass #Thaicookingclass #Experientialtravel #culinarytravel #authenticjournal #Thaicuisine #Thaifood #ChiangMai #visitChiangMai #visitThailand #foodblogger #foodblogfeed #foodiechats #foodblog #truecooks #foodlover #fooddiary #foodart #foodoftheday #foodography #eatwell #bhgfood #f52gram #huffposttaste #foodgawker #thekitchn #sweetmagazine #forkfeed #kitchenfowl #droolclub
  • So guess who went to #Bangkok and only visited one temple? 🙋🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Our trip to Thailand has been full of twists and turns and we missed on a lot to see. All we managed after 24 hours of flying was to see Wat Pho, visit the best restaurant in Asia, go to Khao San road and go shopping! I’ll just have to come back with a bang(kok).🤷🏽‍♀️ . . . . #Bangkok #Thailand #visitBangkok #visitThailand #travelwriter #ilovetravel #travelogue #traveladdict #travelphotography #travellife #travelpic #lonelyplanet #travelblog #travelblogger #traveldiary #travelbuddies #theglobewanderer #mytinyatlas #aroundtheworldpix #forahappymoment #natgeotravel #natgeotravelpic #bcctravel #travelersnotebook #travelbug #traveltips #travelwithme #traveljournal #WatPho
