For a while now I had been thinking of doing a post that looked back at all the travel blogging I had done. I had been putting it off over and over again when Niranjan Das of Tales of a Nomad picked me to do some blogging retrospection. It was not until I went through the close-to-140 posts that I realised how difficult it is to pick out: The most beautiful post, A post I thought did not get the attention it deserved and a Post that I am proud of. But then some decisions ‘had’ to be taken and here are my picks for now:
1. Most Beautiful Post – San Francisco after dark and Golden Gate Bridge at Dusk (two posts, because they kind-of go together ;). )
2. Most Popular Post – A crocodile that ate dinosaurs
3. Most Helpful Post – Sea Band to the rescue
4.Most Controversial Post – I don’t think I’ve been there yet. 🙂
5. A post whose success surprised me – Chained here is an unsettled spirit
6.A Post I thought that did not get the attention it deserved – A whale-watching adventure in Monterey Bay
7.A Post that I am proud of – Forest Hill: where the wild comes visiting
Done!

Nice compilation of your posts, Divya. It is always good to retrospect once in a while.

If not for you, I wouldn't have done one such post now. Thank you.
Niranjan, you know what, I'm really surprised that this many people look up 'Changala Maram.'
🙂 good now its easier to go and read them all

I hope it is. Choosing was difficult. I actually have a few more favourites, some from the pre-Indiblogger days too. I'll pull them out once in a way.
Have a superb weekend, ok.
Great collection! I think I have to read them in detail later. 'A crocodile that ate dinosaurs' is not only most popular, it is the most amazing too 🙂
Abhinav, how have you been?
Take you time. Come and read them whenever you like.
Thank you. The super croc gets a minimum of 10-15 hits every single day. There was a day it had 64 visits. It's mainly from Google Search. 🙂
Well that must have been a trip down the memory lane….
It was. And it was tough to pick out a few. Thank you for stopping by, Desi Traveler.
A nice little retrospect there 🙂
And I see that you have tagged me again. This time I promise I will blog about it….soon 🙂
This is an opportunity to pull out those old good posts of yours and showcase them. I'm waiting for your post, Kishan. 🙂
Await to read post at Serial no. 4 soon, Divya:)
Haha!
My gosh! Considering this is a travel blog, chances are thin, but you never know 😉
Thank you Divya for mentioning my name here, I am honestly surprised, considerign the list has people who do justice to their blog as well as their readers. But it was good to look back and see what I did all this time. I did read all the listed items here and I am really a fan of your travel writing. There is so much enthusiasm in your writing Divya, keep it up!
Have a good time in upcoming holidays 🙂
Aww…thank you for those kind words. That's a lot of motivation to go on and on. :)Thank you once again.
You've got a nice blog too. And what I like most are those photographs you take. They're brilliant.
I should have sent you a link to this post as soon as it was up. So sorry. Anyway nice to know that your next post it up. Shall be there really soon. 🙂 Have a great week, Raji.
Thank you. I love this kind of lists. Will definitely make mine 🙂
Haven't been all that active lately. Moving homes in the snow has got to be quite a feat for me.
be right back!
Sneha
Take you time, Sneha. 🙂
