Hence the title Kitschy Kochi! Expect to find any topic under the sun that I encounter through life in this beautiful city, as I attempt to encapsulate its journey into a full fledged metro city to reckon with -ups and downs included! Join me and keep prodding me to write to make sure the procrastination bug doesn't bite instead!Dinihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18318986065264571125noreply@blogger.comBlogger7125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9084946671865474891.post-39154810252549547352013-04-06T00:13:00.001+05:302013-04-06T00:13:54.320+05:30Kochi Marching Forward!
Okay, enough of my Cairo reminiscing, am back to Kochi gushing! And for good reason too! The past month saw me swelling with pride over two completely divergent visits I made in the city within the same week. The first to the newly opened LuLu Mall and second to the Kochi-Muziris Biennale 2012. Occupying two opposite ends of any spectrum out there, these two ventures however, gave me reason to Dinihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18318986065264571125noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9084946671865474891.post-57235407197506653092013-03-04T00:18:00.000+05:302013-03-04T00:21:21.217+05:30When the REAL home descends on the new home...albeit briefly!
Fishing for home status!
It was just so recently that I had remarked to Purushu that Kochi was really starting to feel more and more like home, as I felt my nomadic roots digging deeper into this strange reclaimed soil that marked the birthplace of both my boys. We discussed how, unlike the two of us, our boys at least could answer a simple question like, "Where are you from?" with an Dinihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18318986065264571125noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9084946671865474891.post-84218635781503126532013-01-20T20:05:00.000+05:302013-01-20T20:11:36.969+05:30Bring On The Midnight Gelato!

But I just was not getting that final energising push to do so. And then last night, I watched Annayum Rasoolum and I knew...the time had come.
Why this movie you may ask? A 3 hour long intense love story that some of the fellow audience found more comfortable to giggle through or berate(though nobody walked out)?

With a house being done up for yours truly and her brood to settle into, its just been a life of running around like a headless chicken. So when a kindly viral fever took over me and subsequently Purushu, we had to sit back and take some rest. In the evening today, although still getting over the fevers, we decided to go Dinihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18318986065264571125noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9084946671865474891.post-21570478285883197062011-06-09T13:48:00.001+05:302011-06-09T14:09:50.873+05:30Watery waysThe monsoons are finally here and the cool weather is a wonderful respite from the heat that the city faces through the rest of the year. But as any Kochiite knows, along with rain, comes the flood filled streets. Really, on even a meagerly rainy day these days, the roads are completely sloshed, making driving through them an absolute health hazard for our cars.

Been wanting to do this for so long now, but somehow always kept putting it off. Plus I had too many different genres of things I wanted to write about, hence I couldn't decide on what my blog would be about. Then Eureka! Why not write about everything and use this as a chronicle of the growth of this city I live in through the eyes of Kochiites like myself, my family Dinihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18318986065264571125noreply@blogger.com1Kochi, Kerala, India9.939248 76.2596250000000289.895253499999999 76.229684500000033 9.9832425 76.289565500000023
