Four Years of India Travel Blog

It is four years since India Travel Blog has been online. It started with a passion to travel, and a wish to keep memories jotted somewhere. It has now gone through more than 500 posts and more than a million page loads in the last four years. It even led me into a career switch, helping me move from a deskjob to something that let me use my time as I wished. It has been four good years of travel blogging. Thanks for being here, and for coming back again and again. Thank you.
