What can be a better way to start last working day of the year than with hot coffee and a cookie @Mrs Higgins Oven Fresh Cookies

This was following the recommendation received during my last visit and we were not disappointed. Although we still have to try their masala tea – next time.

Now waiting for Christmas Lunch this afternoon.

#SisterReneShadboltPark

Another sunny afternoon well enjoyed with a quick walk after lunch @Sister Rene Shadbolt Park

It is adjacent to @Craigavon Park over Portage road. From outside it looks like a small playground but as you start exploring the walkways, it opens up many corners hidden from plain sight.

Apparently lot of events are hosted at this place throughout the year!

#CraigavonPark

A quick walk after lunch while enjoying a beautiful sunny day @Craigavon Park

Despite being so close to our place, never got a chance to visit this interesting park with so many small spots for short exercises and amazing views around. Wish I had more time to check out one of those exercise points!

#Shocked

Life is short.

Today I was shocked to learn that Rajat, one of dear and very first friends I made at Gurgaon during my initial stay, had passed away.

Gurgaon is the city I lived at for the longest time after my hometown and it is because of very few people like him whom I call friends that I was able to survive there.

It is the same friend who introduced me to Rajat, shared the news today.

Rajat is perhaps the only person whom I always noticed smiling, calm and appearing like he is going to say something funny right away. I never saw him hurt, depressed or angry at anyone throughout all the years we spent as friends.

By the time I was moving out of Gurgaon, we already had started losing touch but not the friendship. So whenever we met, it felt like we had met moments ago and that feeling was mutual. It is hard to make such friends and his friendship was no less than a treasure.

Will always miss you, Rajat.

#KeraLaCarte

Delicious lunch at one of my favourite restaurant in Wellington @Kera-la-carte

Couldn’t think of any better way to end this year. Had such an awesome time together and as a matter of fact, got to recall my story of turning into a Kiwi who struggles hard and keeps trying his best all the time, plus the one who cannot stand spicy food!

Here’s to all the good things to come in the new year.

#SeoulHouseRestaurant

Our second ever attempt at Korean food in Wellington @Seoul House Restaurant

This time it hit the chord and now it is our favourite Korean restaurant in Wellington.

Our usual partner in crime, Jose is already enjoying his year end holidays. We had rookie Kennedy with us for first time and this guy loves hacking, and talking about it. Pity he will be leaving us so soon. A great time, we had!
