It’s odd that I didn’t finally visit Larochette Castle since it was practically in the
backyard of the lady with whom I was staying in Larochette (which is a small wooded town,
sparsely populated). I merely had to look out a window to see the 12th Century castle
looming from its perch...

My search for a good waffle in the city took me here. This branch of Coffee World (at Eva)
was smallish, yet well furnished, but turned out to be expensive for my modest
lifestyle. Anyway, I ordered the waffle with strawberry sauce, and ostentatiously, a
Belgian chocolate drink which...

When I first heard the name, I thought it had something to do with the world war and was
named after Hitler. But then I was told that it was first built around the year 1903 and
anyway the name of the bridge is not Adolf, but Adolphe (after the Grand Duke that ruled

Lite and fat-free and all health-wise food is a growing fad in India. With it came the
pricey Italian Gelato ice cream. For someone (like me) who likes generous dollops of ice
cream and a hearty sundae, the piddly Gelato scoop is stingeville. On the other hand,
they do have...

Like all malls, Sigma has its own food court. On the third floor, next to the supermarket
is the open food court that has counters of various foods – Chinese, falafels, pasta,
North Indian, South Indian, desserts, juices etc. Personally, I think everything there is
a little overpriced...

The unassuming city of Luxembourg harbours an underground network of catacombs called
Casemates. The first underground tunnels were built in 1644 and subsequently expanded over
many years, continuing to serve as subterranean defensive passages. They were built over
different levels...

If you’re going to Larochette (or any of the other small regions in Luxembourg), make
sure you have some mode of transport figured out, or put on your walking shoes. I took a
train form Brussels and as soon as we entered Luxembourg, the population density dropped
drastically; there...

One afternoon when I was strolling down 12th main, I was yearning for comfort food just
when the Baskin Robbins shop caught my eye. I had just been reading a lot of Jughead
comics, so naturally I couldn’t resist the prospect of a big ice cream. Moreover, BR let
you taste their ice...

Fortunately, Brussels falls midway between French-speaking and Dutch-speaking Belgium -
which means that there’s a bit of both here. This is good news for those who don’t
speak French because, as I soon found out, if you can’t speak the language, you’re
unlikely to receive any...

From Bangalore to Frankfurt, SriLankan Airlines was offering the cheapest fare, so I took
it. I would have to fly to Colombo, spend a night and take the connecting flight the next
day. The airline would provide accommodation. Seemed like a good deal. Having landed in

Luxembourg City has a cheery balance of ye olde European culture and inevitable
modernization; of nature and human settlement. From the parts of the city that I visited,
I found it had a relaxed, almost lazy atmosphere – maybe also because it was a weekend.

Frankfurt airport was like ghost town after the maddening crowds of the subcontinent.
Besides the fact that it was a spotless, huge, new-age edifice, I also arrived there at an
unearthly hour, so the airport was mostly bare, looking like a city by itself; almost
spooky since I was...

Vienna’s public transport system is very efficient. Everything is well connected and the
frequency of transport is very high and adheres to the clock almost by the minute. Though
I did take the bus every now and then, the easiest mode of commute seemed to be the tram.
