Staying at The Claridges Hotel

The Claridges Hotel New Delhi was a lovely lap of luxury to start our trip. I arrived first to the hotel solo, which was perhaps a 25 min drive from the airport. I booked all of our airport transfers via booking.com, and have to say it was brill. Everyone turned…

Long time, no write!

Story of my life. I have had so many hiatuses on this blog, I feel like I might as well leave it offline and only toggle it ‘on’, when I actually have something to say. I feel like I have been ‘Up and Away’ more than I’ve been home lately,…
