“Most individuals desire to remain residence for Diwali.” Whereas this might need been true previously, issues certain are altering. I spent Diwali 2021 at my home-away-from-home, Narendra Bhawan at Bikaner. Having been there a bunch of occasions – to have a good time bringing within the New 12 months, to have a good time Holi and several other time, simply to loosen up and unwind after which, generally, to celebration. Had not but visited for Diwali, so, there I used to be! It was stunning.
Sharing some images of a few of my favorite spots on the resort, in addition to preparations for Diwali and the Diwali night time celebration.
It simply so occurs, that the central courtyard of the resort, known as the Diwali Chowk. Naturally, that was the placement for kicking off the Diwali festivities. Beginning with a puja with the GM Mr. Nitin Sud and carrying on upstairs, for a celebration by the pool.
Bikaner was hotter than Delhi / Gurgaon. I wore a whole lot of gold – which is solely not like me – and I even preferred how the look got here collectively. A stunning time – together with cellphone calls again residence to chatter with the household about lacking Diwali within the residence metropolis and the way unhealthy the air pollution there was! Who desires to be in Delhi when the air is poison, which it’s throughout Diwali season.
Now for some images of a few of my favorite corners on the resort.
I even discovered one thing hidden behind curtains, that I had not seen beforehand – these stunning glass baubles – they seem like custard apples to me.

A number of black and white photographs.
An entire load of self portraits as a result of I wished to have a good time ME. I had been going via a part of feeling horrible about myself – low self-worth and low vanity and NB appears to convey out the very best in me, so I felt a renewed sense of, “I’m okay.” Needed to be documented.
And eventually, sunsets on the pool. They signify a means of claiming goodbye to the resort, for me. “Till subsequent time.”
