Bula VInaka!!!

Fiji - It was long due planning I should say, few of my friends know what Im talking about.. Anyway, finally we've been to Fiji..it was such an amazing trip, much needed break from all the craziness happening around for past months..

I went without much expectation, to my surprise I didn't pack my bags until the last day (I'm usually well organised with my holidays) and didn't look for what to do/see in Fiji before going.. DH took full control this time & booked flights and stay..Honestly I didn't even know where we were staying until we landed..I was telling my family/friends I'm staying at Westin but DH booked it at Hilton :).. But its so worth it like this way once a while, just went with the flow and came back all rejuvenated..


Fiji is a tropical pacific Island and Denaru is an man made island close to Nadi airport.. Denaru is all about resorts and relaxation.. All the world brand resorts are here and everyone of them make sure you have a wonderful time without stepping out of their resorts.. Kids get engaged with kids club activities/pools/beach/sand play and this fancy looking hop-on hop-off  Bula Bus which goes around Denaru to all resorts was such a fun ride.. One of the days we stayed in Denaru, we just explored every resort taking the bula-bus.. Its a must activity if you are curious like me.. lol..



Fijians are so warm people just like its weather, one thing I noticed NO ONE cares HOW YOU LOOK.. You could go without makeup, no one gives a DAMN.. Everybody has this magic smile and you feel you are in some wonderland.. A was super excited with their greetings and started greeting everyone with Bula(Hello in Fiji) when he sees anyone (literally anyone).. He was in such a holiday mood within a day..

We explored 2 of neighbouring islands , but for most days we just stayed-in and enjoyed the swimming pool, beach & their yummiest food Lovo.. what else you need on your relaxation holiday..

I would recommend to anyone and everyone either you are a family or single or couple to go to FIJI.. You need one more reason to go - I would say their tropical fruits.. So fresh and makes you want to come back..lol.. 

I think I convinced enough now... where is my drink!!!!

Lost and Found myself..

Rule of thumb for a blind date is to trust the process and to go on a date with no/zero expectation. You do not know who you are meeting until you see them. You cannot check their FB profile or see their stories in Insta. You go there with open mind. If you are lucky, you get a wonderful experience and stories to tell your grand children. Mine was no different, I must say I was always lucky with my blind dates. I have had so many experience of this. However, it was not like I didn't have a choice. Like most of you I too had a conventional way, but choose another way.  I'm talking about my blind dates with this world. Would you dare to go on a blind date with this world? I would. I certainly would. I love the idea of exploring the world , a new place without a map/GPS in hand. I just love the idea of embracing the local culture without reading a travelogue. I just love to taste local food at a street shop in a small alley 'coz local people eat there. I...

Solving business problems – what is your team’s approach?

Whether it's a business problem or a technology problem, the first step is to find a solution. Am I right?  I don’t need a Business degree to recognise it's not the right way to solve a problem; surprisingly, many teams follow this approach. Often a solution is reached before defining a problem. You might argue “Why would an organisation spend $$ without analysing the problem?”. I agree with the intention, but I believe getting clarity on the problem will save time and avoid complications in other business processes, time, money, and resources in the long run. I have noticed instances where businesses quickly resolve problems without knowing the downstream effects on other processes, which can lead to further issues later. In some cases, standard processes have workarounds because no one had time to go back and fix it. Here is your guide to solve problems in an ideal way, The first step is to  analyse and identify the problem  - Explore thoroughly to get to the core ...
