One of the many things that I was obsessed with on my trip to Ladakh is the sight of scree slopes in light and shadow. When I say obsessed, I quite mean what the word is supposed to mean. Really obsessed. Really really obsessed. Really really really.. Ok, you get the idea. I was clicking away ,quite incessantly, pictures of that brown barren nothingness. Just plain slopes of mud and rock and soil in light. And then in shade.
I’m pretty sure I’m going to process atleast a few of them. So, if this dry brown isnt your cup of butter tea , you’ll have to bail outta here - like today. I will present you many such opportunities to make an exit in future - but none might be as sincere :)

Yet another ever-interesting subject was the Buddhist monk. Here goes one. More will be thrust upon thou as more posts on Ladakh make it to the site.. (Warnings apply)

Hi,
I was reading ur blog posts and found some of them to be very good.. u write well.. Why don’t you popularize it more.. ur posts on ur blog ‘All Things Considered’ took my particular attention as some of them are interesting topics of mine too;
BTW I help out some ex-IIMA guys who with another batch mate run http://www.rambhai.com where you can post links to your most loved blog-posts. Rambhai was the chaiwala at IIMA and it is a site where users can themselves share links to blog posts etc and other can find and vote on them. The best make it to the homepage!
This way you can reach out to rambhai readers some of whom could become your ardent fans.. who knows.. :)
Cheers,
