Post image for Driving an Auto Rickshaw Across India

I can’t believe it. I’ve actually driven an auto rickshaw! Not in traffic, mind you, but it’s a start. No longer am I a mere passenger in one of these pervasive pieces of Indian transportation.

Post image for Visiting Sula Vineyards in Nasik

It was my husband’s 35th birthday last week so we decided to go out of town for a few days to celebrate. And what better way to celebrate a birthday than at a winery? Especially as my husband has, after a little encouragement from me, become a huge fan of wine….
