Did you know that Shillong had such beautiful Cherry Blossoms and where else can you find it in india?
I didn’t know myself, now I’m getting my parents here to experience this magic.❤️
What do you feel like when you look at this?
This is Cherry Blossom 🌸 Season in Shillong, My India!
These Cherry blossoms 🌸 last only 2 weeks.

Which river in india has your heart?
This one has my ❤️
India is a land full of rivers.
Dawki river is actually one of the cleanest in the world. Imagine if River Ganga was this clean!
The water is green and crystal clear.
The river seperates India and Bangladesh.
It has a 90 year old suspension bridge where I’m standing :))
Don’t you feel the boats appear to be floating on an invisible glass surface?
A boat ride is a must when you visit Dawki!

What’s your dream ride? Chopper sea plane,luxury ships, cool sports bikes?
I’m super excited to attend the Me Gong Rice Beer 🍻 Festival in the Garo Hills of Meghalaya. What a Kickstarter to the journey on a chopper like a VIP. This is how the government and ministers travel but they are so hospitable they sent it for me!!

Would you like to try Watsu?
I was cradled, stretched, massaged gently by Daniel my watsu therpaist. At one point he pulled me close to his heart and I heard his heartbeat. Yes this felt very intimate but I was extremely comfortable with this gentle kind man. It gave me a feeling of being in my mother’s womb with the water and the gentle sound of the heartbeat.
After the therapy I had a wave of emotions come over me. I even cried a little but Daniel told me this is very normal and a lot of people become emotional after the watsu.
“I am a water lover so of course I loved it but what about people who are scared of water”, I asked Daniel. He said it helps you get rid of the fear of water and many people come to him to unlock their fear of H2O
Watsu has all kinds of benifits – Mental, physical and emotional.
The full form of Watsu is water shiatsu. Shiatsu comes from Japan and finds its origins in the ‘Nadi’ system from India. So was Watsu originated in India then?
This Liquid Fllow was so peaceful, I can’t wait to go for my next Watsu Therapy!
Thanks Daniel. I doubt he has instagram but if anyone knows him, pls show him this video! 🙂
I got the Watsu at Quiet Healing Centre in Auroville Tamil Nadu

What is a wish that your parents have that you wanna make a reality??
My mom has only asked me for one thing – she said take me to Japan to see the Cherry Blossoms. 🌸🌸
So I was waiting for the right time ⏱to take her there but in the meanwhile I have discovered that you don’t have to go all the way to Japan to see Cherry Blossoms. 🌸They are right here, in India, in Shillong Meghalaya!!! 😃
So I am bringing my parents here to see the Cherry Blossoms :))🌸🌸
Will take her to Japan too, hopefully soon!!!!

On my mummy’s birthday, let’s celebrate all moms!!!
What are the lessons you’ve learnt from your mom???
Our mothers love us the most, isn’t it?
Lessons I learnt from my mummy-
1. Life is how you make it. If you put in the work, you will succeed
2. Attitude is everything!!! You will never see my mummy or daddy complaining.
3. Never take no for an answer. As a kid I spent so many days at the BMC office, my mom wanted the garbage to be taken care of that was dumped all over bandra.
4. My love for trees and plants comes from mummy!
5. My love for music and theatre comes from mom who’s taught speech and drama to kids at schools in bandra. Today so many young kids come up to me and say your mom was my teacher.
Even though she never wanted me to be an actor :)) she’s finally accepted it hahaa and now she’s really proud of what I do!
6. If i was ever sad or crying about a breakup, my mom has always had my back- ” breathe, put on a nice dress and forget about it. What did you see in him anyway?” :)))
7. Do everything for the people you love!
When I’m sick, even recently when I had COVID, my mom risked it- came over, she opens up all the curtains and windows, arranges the house nicely, makes me a Sandwich 🥪 and somehow I always get better!!!! Thankssss mummy!!
8. Dress up even when you feel down.
She even more fashionable than me and we often got into arguments because she always wants me nicely dressed and i feel she treated me as a doll as a kid hahhaa
9. If your home is messy, your life is messy. Nobody is better at organising a home like my mom.
Happy Birthday to my Mummy!!!
We didn’t always have the smoothest relationship while I was growing up and I couldn’t always tell her everything but over the years we learnt to understand each other.
I know nobody loves me as much as my ma does. I would take a bullet for my dearest Mummy!!!! 💕

What’s the best waterfall you’ve seen in india??
This is phe phe falls Meghalaya.❤️
There are many Waterfalls in Meghalaya and all are gorgeous!! Most are popular like Dainthlen Falls, Nohkalikai Falls, Wei Sawdong and Lyngksiar Falls in Sohra District of Cherapunji. There are more like Rainbow Falls, Krangsuri a little away from Cherapunji.
Best of all for me is this one Phe Phe ❤️😍

Work from mountains? Work from beach? Work from office? What’s your choice???
This is my work from himachal. I am in a beautiful homestay called Meena Bagh Homes here. Working from the mountains has its advantages or would you rather work from the beach??
Or just from your home??

Name the place where you felt the most spiritual?
There are so many stories about the Manikaran Temple. The novelty factor is the freezing water in the Parvati River on the one side and boiling hot water spring on the other.
So the rice I ate was just boiled in that water!

What life lesson have you learnt recently?
Please share.
Lesson I learnt from this waterfall trek- To reach anywhere beautiful, you have to cross a difficult path.
Nothing amazing comes easily.
What have you sacrificed? Was it worth it?
Location tag: Wei sawdong waterfall

To have kids or not? What’s your choice?
I love kids but I don’t want kids of my own. When I say this I get a lot of shocked looks. You’re selfish Shenaz. You want to just live for yourself. You don’t want responsibility!
Yes, thats true. Having kids is a whole lot of responsibility that I am not ready for. I love my life!!!
Also as much as I love kids, I like giving them back to their parents and coming home to peace and silence!
But the main reason is – I do not want to bring kids into an already over populated world and burden the planet even more than it already is.
Yes, I do understand that humans are biologically wired to reproduce. And it made sense to grow the population and your family in the past. But now, with the future looking scary and the degradation of the planet, the future for children and grandchildren, is not looking bright. Fishless oceans, pandemics etc.
I am Selfish?
Having kids is vanity right? This child is a mini version of yourself – and how can you not love a mini you- of course you love that child that looks like you and talks like you :))
So today in 2021- is it selfish to have a kid or not have a kid?? 😉
I think adoption is the least selfish – the people that adopt they are the selfless ones! They are the stars of humanity 💕
Unfortunately in india it’s so hard to adopt.. imagine the irony in that!!!
Yes I sometimes think I would make an amazing parent – my child would be super cool 😉 I would put that kid in a sling and take her around the world etc etc but no, I don’t want kids.
Thats my decision 💕
What about you???

What brings out the child in you?
Chocolate 🍫 turns me into a child again👶🏽. Esp when it’s “healthy” chocolate- with coconut sugar🥥 or palm 🌴sugar and no preservatives. 😋
This was at the chocolate factory in auroville – Mason & co 🍫
Even their packaging has no plastic. All their employees are women!! 😃
Please not they are NOT paying me 😅 This is out of my love for healthy food choices and chocolate!!❤️❤️

Whats the best affordable smartphone in India? Which one has the best camera??
I tried the new Vivo X70 Pro featuring MediaTek Dimensity 1200-vivo,
It’s a masterpiece for a photography enthusiastic like me. Features like 60x Hyperzoom, Zeiss Style Portraits Modes, Zeiss T* Coating Pure Night View, Ultra-Sensing Gimbal Camera etc for a differentiated camera experience.
It also boasts advanced AI capabilities, innovative connectivity, display, audio and gaming enhancements as well.
