this weekend i am:

taking advantage of the long weekend and exploring pondicherry! i’ll see you kids on the flipside.

interesting things from around the interwebs:

uncle jesse singing forever, because i have been playing this on repeat all week long.

classic nyc and la jokes. i didn’t get some of them, but the ones i did get were pretty funny.

perfectionism at work. these pictures are so amazingly appealing.

my buddies at noora health have recently been named as one of the 50 most innovative companies in the world!

devi and sahil on finding the balance between a love marriage and an arranged one.

india’s high rate of death by selfies has led to the rise of selfie-free zones in bombay. it is unbelievable how many selfies are taken on a daily basis in this country.

i love these photos of open european borders. evidence of how countries can co-exist peacefully next to one another without the need for a wall.

and the moral of this story is: never buy from 123mountain. i’ve never even heard of them, but they’re off the list.

have any of you heard of the miss veteran america pageant? this is a long read, but it’s really interesting.

6 reasons to visit a museum alone. i love going to museums on my own for many of these same reasons.

all of these different kinds of thalis has me drooling and plotting my next great indian adventure.

i have not been able to get the idea of visiting bhutan out of my head, and brenna’s and deepika’s recent posts are only fueling my imagination. i’m thinking it could be a great place to see before returning to the states this summer…

in case you missed it:

my very first post on this site, almost exactly one year ago.
