The most sensible question that pops out before one starts to think of something new... "Why?" FYI, the why- thing happened when I thought of starting this blog. So that answers the "What?" Now back to the why-topic. It's because I had all the time in this world to do the what-thing.
"How?" Well, I guess I am good at managing time. You see, I reach office by 8 AM EST (I don't know why my boss thinks I am a hypnomaniac) and leave at either T+10, where 'T' is the time my boss steps out of the office and 10 is the time defined in minutes, or, at 5 PM MST, whichever is earlier. 2 minutes elevator ride + a 3 minute smoke + 3 minutes walk down the parking lot + 2 mins contingency (it's always 20% of the sizing that we provide to our golden goose) = 10 minutes.

So, that's why and how I am doing the what.
The real 'why'
Sorry I got digressed. Happens with me a lot. I am working on this a lot these days, trying to concenterate on the topic. So, now I keep on repeating "travel", "Arizona", "blog", "write", "topic" in my head to keep my self on track. By the way, this reminds me of my school days. We once had this debate on "Technology: a boon or a curse?" and we ended up discussing "Did man ever land on moon?" My school was huge. It had a lot of kids. The best part of my school was the canteen. I would often steal Rs.2 from my parents, sister or any one in my home for my canteen's samosa. I had almost made it with my baai's money purse when I realized it was empty ... poor baai.... I guess my parents had not paid her for long. I had loved those samosas. I would often trade my tiffin box with my friends, for one samosa. The deal was definitely worth it. Imagine your tiffin stuffed with upma and idli. I always used to trade with this Marvadi guy. He loved south Indian food. He was a rich guy. He had a dog called "sweety". Sweety was always hungry. She(sweety) loved mangoes. I love mangoes too. You get great mangoes inRatnagiri. I once went to Ratnagiri to my friend's place. I still remember. The trip from Mumbai to Ratnagiri was long and boring. But now a days you have faster bus services and taxis. The world is getting faster and the people are getting closer, thanks to modern science and new technologies. And that's why I say that technology is definitely a boon, not a curse.

Now, back to the topic. People have a habit of following the conventional, tried-and-tested travel. So, I decided to blog the travel locations that I tried and that were sucessfull, along with some helpful details so that it could serve as a guide. By the way, some people say I am sarcastic, don't believe them.
Blog structure
The "The List" topic is a list of all the locations (each location is a seperate topic) in this blog. Go through the list and find out your place of interest.
In each topic, you will find a description of the destination, some useful information, pictures and a few anecdotes.
