Celebrating 8 Years of Blogging: A Journey of Passion and Consistency

Celebrating 8 years of my blog.

It’s hard to believe, but today marks 8 years since I first started my blog! Looking back, it hasn’t always been easy. Consistency can be a challenge, but what’s kept me going is the passion I have for sharing my travel and food experiences with all of you. From discovering hidden gems in far-flung corners of the world to tasting local delicacies, my blog has been a space where I can truly express my love for exploration and cuisine.

A Special Insight for Fellow Instagrammers & PRs
One thing I’ve noticed lately is a bit of confusion around the term “blogging.” Many people refer to Instagram posts as blogging, but here’s the truth: Posting pictures on Instagram is not the same as blogging.

A blog is typically a website that features regularly updated content, often in the form of blog posts. These posts provide in-depth experiences, insights and stories. Blogs are written pieces that allow for deeper exploration of topics, something that goes beyond the brief nature of social media posts.

Why This Matters:

For those just starting out or looking to collaborate, it’s essential to understand the distinction:

  • Bloggers are individuals who create long-form, detailed content on their own websites.
  • Instagrammers (or social media influencers) share snapshots, stories, and visuals primarily on social platforms.

So, let’s clear this up—don’t call Instagrammers bloggers. They may create great content, but it’s a different medium entirely. And for us bloggers, let’s continue pushing for rich, authentic storytelling that offers value and insight beyond a quick snapshot.

A Big Thank You! 🙏

To all the readers, fellow bloggers and PRs who’ve supported me over the years, Thank you! Here’s to many more years of sharing, exploring and growing together. 🌍🍴

Loft Suite at Ovolo Hotel, Woolloomooloo Sydney | Staycation in Australia

Featured

While conveniently located near Sydney’s Central Business District, the Ovolo Hotel Woolloomooloo provides a tranquil waterfront experience being at the Wharf. Ovolo is a luxury boutique hotel, providing exquisite rooms and exceptional loft suites.

This property is both a heritage and modern luxury, the Woolloomooloo Wharf offers a wealth of historical features that are matched by cutting-edge features and modern design. All while relaxing in your roomy residence with a view of stunning Sydney Harbour.

It is in the ideal location because it is close to Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens and we visited the Sydney Opera House, stunning parklands and The Rocks.

Ovolo Woolloomooloo has incredible 5-star amenities like their own indoor swimming pool with poolside cabanas, meeting rooms and event spaces, bar and dining at Alibi, 24-hour gym and the most important part- it’s a Pet-friendly accommodation! I am surely taking my pet greyhound on my next Staycation with Ovolo 😊

We stayed in Ovolo’s Cityvoo Loft Suite. Their rooms are comfortable and spacious! The suite was loft style: downstairs was the living room with electric blinds accessing to Sydney City skyline views (plus a separate powder room, dining area and mini bar) and upstairs was the king size ensuite bedroom.

This awesome suite included continental breakfast, mini bar, in-room snacks, wifi, daily social hour, national calls, indoor pool, gym, self-laundry and all this was FREE!! They also have unlimited free candy cart at the property. This was my first experience where the suite had a Yoga Mat for guests to takeaway to their homes! They surely know how to pamper their guests.

Since it was my Mother’s Birthday, they surprised us with complementary Champagne and Cake. Could not have chosen a place to celebrate than Ovolo Hotels 😊 Their room service was speedy and spot on! Also devoured the complementary breakfast at Alibi, it is a vegan restaurant and has wide range of options. Also, their Vegan Cheeseburger tastes like the real cheeseburger, Yumm!!

I thoroughly enjoyed my Staycation with Ovolo Hotel and looking forward for more of these in future 😊

Tea is not just a drink, but it holds love, culture and life. It is something that connects all of us in one single bond. In India, tea is something that starts your day, keeps you moving during the day, refreshes you in the evening and finally de-stress you after a long tiring day. Over a cup of tea we discuss everything on the globe. Relations are bonded forever over a cup of tea, the most important decisions are taken over a cup of tea and much more.

Just take some time out after you read this article over a cup of tea and imagine the hard work that has gone behind getting this charismatic drink in a cup to your hand. Take a sip and imagine the workers spending hours and month to carefully nurture the plantations, carefully plucked each leaf and done everything to give you this magical moment. Take a pick on this International Tea Day, to understand what the tea workers deliver to us, what is more than a drink to us.

Some insight for fellow instagrammers & PRs:
A blog is a type of website where the content is often referred to as blog posts mainly with the purpose of sharing information or experiences. Therefore, posting pictures on instagram is not called blogging. Please do not call instagrammers as bloggers 🙏
