A slice of heaven is all you need when you want to unwind. Fresh breath of air, alluring landscapes to lose oneself’ in the picturesque surrounding is the best stress-buster. That’s why if you ask me scenic destinations or beachy ? It has to scenic , where; when I open my eyes, it should feed me PEACE! This anticipation slowly made me escape into a dream and made me arrive at this Swiss –alike setting. In the tropical heat of Thailand, lies a province called “Suan Phueng,” which literally translates to Garden of Bees. Approximately 2 ½ to 3 hours drive from Bangkok  in the heart of Ratchaburi district you will find this town with European  look and feel . From the time you elope into Suan Phueng each corner will have a separate resort with similar theme – Windmills, Horse Ranches, Sheep grazing, lush green land.                                      ...

I am re-posting this from my earlier blog which I had thrashed! When you want to run away from your busy schedule and the same old people, the only thought that pops in your mind are pristine beaches, lush green mountains and tropical weather – that’s what Thailand offers! Well, I did not opt for the beaches, but I sure did want such scenic beauty to calm my mind and refresh my soul, jus like some people feel when they do yoga. Nestled in about 256 kms from Bangkok, round about a 4 hr run , is the beautiful hill station called Kanchanaburi. Me and my husband hired a cab and till we knew we had covered about 256 km in about 5 hours. With respective butt aches we got off and stretched the fat cat out of the us. Phew! Massive common pool Just in time to capture the beautiful morning rays minus the heat . We arrived at our destination at Kanchanaburi  district and resorted ourselves in Mida resort . The beauty was breath-taking . The resort w...

 As much as I like to believe that outer appearance of a product reveals how it will actually be , I tend to get the opposite results each time! Recently it happened while I was selecting a face wash ! Since having an acne prone skin – I always prefer medicated face washes over highly chemically treated or fancy face washes. Recently I got my hands on Cetaphil Facewash , I had read a lot about it, but never bothered to use ! But since my skin is quiet sensitive, I decided I needed to take a decision and stick onto one trusted brand! So I tried this gentle cleanser. It’s so gentle, that it does not lather up not does it leave your skin dry like the other anti-acne face washes. Texture – So smooth! It’s ultra light texture leaves your skin feeling super moisturized! Do not expect to feel super energized and fresh like the Aloe vera face washes or feel super dry like the typical foaming face washes for acne prone skin. But this will make you feel nothi...

IF you are in slight pain you run for a Muscle Relaxant IF you are having a headache you pop in a Saridon/Combiflam/Asprin If you are feverish or feeling warm you pop in a Crocin/Paracetamol  Oh! And what if you are caught up with a prolonged body ache?   Ahhh   i   know, You need a good spa! Taking up these temporary measures is very instinctive and normal! But at the end of the day it is still temporary. Today as we maturing with age, instead of getting calmer - we are getting more hyper and apprehensive about things! We don't just give things a 'thought' we practically mull over it for hours together - outcome is Headache! Everyone is on   Fb . Practically every 2nd day we stumble across a post on' Stress management' - it just shows up in the News Feeds (for people who subscribe to health and lifestyle pages only) Either they are about   Mediation   for hours Or They are about natural home   re...

I once wanted to be a makeup artist, but since I suffer from  Anthropophobia - Kinds of fear of people - like how will they react and stuff. I decided to stay   undercovers ! I once wanted to become a makeup artist, but since I suffer from  Anthropophobia - fear of people - like how will they react and stuff. I decided to stay   undercovers !    Do my own makeup and for those who are close to me! That shall help! But since being a complete makeup/beauty fanatic, I decided to try a  look  today.    It's a bright look so   you   could probably wear such makeup in the evening and move out! Make-it-up   Step 1  I started by using a Foundation by Rimmel London - True Ivory 103 Shade (However   I recommend you use your own foundation which suits your skin)   Step 2 I took a powder brush and stroked the brush around the compact...
