Normally an underpass is the most ignored place, it is dark, damp and no one ever pays attention to it. But this one is different. Someone decided to do this different and make people pause while passing from here. It is spreading messages of Love, Brotherhood and Humanity. The walls have…nainaztengra in # life • 1 day ago • 2 min readThe funny parts of lifeEveryday morning when I wake up, I have a list of things to do on my mind, every night I sleep I have a list of to do things the next day and then even for the future. Every day there is a list of things to do, kind of never gets over. There are times when I feel, the list is over and very soon a new list comes up, which is made by no one else…nainaztengra in # travel • 2 days ago • 1 min readThrowbacks - Fond memories of lake genevaThis is a visual post, sharing some sweet moments and memories from one of my favourite places in the world. Lake Geneva, I have been there several times and every time I feel this cheerful vibe in this place. The lake side cafes are a must to try out, they do not serve anything fancy, it's a pleasure sitting out there and admiring the…nainaztengra in # social-media • 3 days ago • 2 min readUnfollowing people and nothing bad happensI had some 1000+ people on my Facebook account who I was following. Over a period of time the number has kept going up. It's just that sometimes we meet people and then the next step is to add them on Facebook or Insta and probably after that one meets you will not make conversations with them again. For me I have people from my school days, my…nainaztengra in # mobile-phone • 4 days ago • 2 min readOur phone knows us better then our familyThis is a fact in the times that we are living. My phone knows that I wake up at 7, It knows my preferences from my browsing history and hence keep giving those same prompts all the time. It knows what time I sleep, what are my preferences, what are my plans, what I want to eat. Every week I get a notification from my phone of how I used my…nainaztengra in # photography • 5 days ago • 2 min readA Garden in the AirThis Floating Garden, is a part of the teamLab museum in Tokyo. Earlier I shared other parts of teamLabs museum which have been more of immersive art technology. But here the air is different. It's a garden not on the ground but suspended in the air.

We were driving and suddenly I see this pond, I asked my driver to wait to see this place. The area that I was travelling, I did not expect to see something like this here. It's a beauty, at the same time the surroundings are not well maintained and it's dirty and polluted, which is…nainaztengra in # travel • 7 days ago • 2 min readThe train journeyThis week has been all about short travels to different places. I did most of it by train as that's the fastest and economical also. Some years back travelling by train was not very convenient as the trains are very old and not well maintained. But in the last few years, there have been new trains introduced and they are all very good.

It's the Night-Blooming Jasmine, which we call it as Raat Rani, means the queen of the night, and it lives up to its name. After sunset, my whole place fills up with the fragrance of this tree. It has an intensely sweet, rich…nainaztengra in # garden • 9 days ago • 2 min readBlooming HibiscusFew months back I had got the hibiscus plant from the nursery, it was a small one and I had shared it also here some pictures. But now it has grown up quite big and with that the flowers coming on it are also big. This is what I had a few days back, such a beauty. Everyday there are 2 to 3 flowers coming out. Their lifespan is short. If they are…nainaztengra in # life • 10 days ago • 3 min readLuxury is just not about wealth.I have lived my life divided between two countries, India and Oman, which is a part of the Middle East. Though geographically and culturally different, I have found that both places offer a life of great comfort, provided you have a decent and stable income.

It's a welcome ritual for them and a mark of respect for their guest. The coffee is called Kahwa in local language. They believe that serving this is a sacred symbol of hospitality and good will.

The hotel is gorgeous; the architecture is beautiful. I had also shared the long chandelier of that hotel. There were many other fine pieces of art in the hotel, which are worth looking at. Sometimes we visit a place and not notice every part of…nainaztengra in # writing • 13 days ago • 2 min readThe difficult part for me on bloggingIt's been 9+ years for me making blogs on the platform. My blogs are mostly on travels, art, healing, psychology and leisure. I enjoy writing and sharing stories every day. There is so much to write about and share, especially from my travel adventures.

She is now taking up her hobby to the next level of making it as a source of income. These days, a lot of my home things I ark her to knot for me.

It's a chandelier, but you can say it's just not a chandelier but a piece of art. It starts from the ceiling and goes down 2 floors. It's like a vertical river of crystals. What makes it special is that hundreds of hand-cut crystal strands suspend from a single point at the top…nainaztengra in # art • 17 days ago • 1 min readThe immersive experience at teamLab in Tokyo - Part 3I shared about the teamLabs different room experiences in my previous 2 blogs.
