Notice how you can tell a lot about someone from the way they drive a vehicle? The over confident types will zoom ahead from the left only to be stopped in their tracks by a lone cyclist that they failed to notice or a parked car that suddenly materialized. The insane ones will overtake from …
One weekend, Him & Her decided to go kayaking in the Kundalika River. The Kundalika is more like a thick turbid stream than a river, though wide like a river. The expedition was His idea, attractively packaged as an ‘adventure experience’. The ride to the starting point was about a 1.5 hours drive away from …
