https://rashminotes.wordpress.com/
This blog is a journal of my tryst with travel, décor and food. Some of my hobbies are travel, reading, writing, photography, cooking and eating good food. I am passionate about everything related to home décor be it plants, artefacts or recycling and up cycling stuff, something that I particularly enjoy.
