The Sane Dreamer

I love Mystery… and I’d be a Mystery myself if granted. Okay, what I mean is that I love reading mystery/thriller and I enjoy delving into the world of one. Those who know me probably notice that I am a huge fan of Agatha Christie , my all-time favourite Crime Author.  Hands down, she is the author whose books has taken most of the space on my bookshelves, and TBH she is one classic crime writer. Period.  After all, why is she even known as the ‘Queen of Crime’? right? Starting off with all these introductions simply explains my book review choice for today. ‘Murder and Thriller’, to be precise. I will be talking about the book ‘Murder In Paharganj’ by Kulpreet Yadav . Being a thriller fan  I wasted no time to devour the book when the  author sent me a copy. However, a little confession to be made i.e. I couldn't really finish the book on the time which I have set. And, the reason for the late read led to a very delayed book review, which I should have done before...

    #SayYesToTheWorld Credit- Pinterest  The feeling of travelling alone is completely different as compared to going on a trip with groups or two. While a trip with friends and families can be memorable and fun, but it is always an enriching experience to travel solo. If you ask me, I would probably tell you how travelling solo was something which has always been in ‘Bucket List’ ever since I got my hands on my passport. Not that I don't want a travel companion, but it is rather the need of a 'Me' time which is something I crave for. I find it as a way of filling up a positive vibes, a life changing experience or more about bringing you closer to yourself and the world. Given a chance anytime, I would leave everything behind, and keep going back to globetrotting alone. Any time. Imagine how you will get to see and discover better things without worrying about who you came with. It's not just the place you get to explore, the diverse culture differences, ...

As a social media influencer who is constantly depended on their online followers and online content, the worst nightmare ever will be his/her social media account getting hacked. Not that the hackers can misuse your identity, but the thoughts of working and growing your online presence not only scares you but only add woes to your already broken soul. And, if you are using social media just a way to maintain your social status, I bet it will make you feel the same way, maybe.  Unfortunately, this happened to me, and I became the victim of what one might call an identity theft. It all started one fine Friday morning, right after my birthday when I woke up and wanted to scroll through my Instagram account to check on the amount of likes I received on the picture which I uploaded the day before. And Lo and behold! I couldn’t sign into my own account as it signaled me that   I was using a wrong username and password, I checked and re-checked the s...
