It's a Mom Thing http://www.cozmotherknowsbest.blogspot.com/
I am a sociology (hons) student and I have completed my post graduation in Journalism. Since then I have worked with both print and broadcast media. However for the past three years I have been on a break from work raising my four year old daughter, Vedika. My husband, Vikram moved to Nairobi and it is only when I moved here and went straight from being a 24x7 career woman to a stay at home mom that I realized how much I missed writing. Here, I received plenty of opportunities to travel and started meeting more and more interesting people from varied cultures and lifestyles. Ashwrites, my blog is simply a medium to bring out these stories and views across… Also check out my mommy blog...cozmotherknowsbest.blogspot.com Also follow me on twitter @ash_you_like _it
