I have visited this place more than any other place in Alicante. In fact I am living very near to the Castle. Most of the time I come here with any new person in my lab to show her Alicante. This is the perfect place for a complete view of Alicante. Last time I went with my IITK friend Santosh Anand. [More]

My first trip to this Castle was with my friend Peppe with his family on Christmas, 2004. We went to the home of his girl friend's parents for lunch and then for a long walk to Castle. This was the first and the last trip to this Castle. I would like to go there again on some sunny day. [More]

Its one of my favorite beaches and the most visited places in Alicante. I have been living in front of this beach for last one year. Its the most famous beach for tourists. I like it because its full of people all the summer. A very colorful place and is just in front of the Santa Barbara Castle of Alicante. [More]

Its my favorite beach. Its 5 minutes drive from my University campus. Its the longest beach here. Very beautiful. One of my favorite restaurants for Paella is here. Some times our lab goes to have a group lunch there. One time I had a walk from Albufera to San Juan by going parallel to the shore. [More]

I have been to many mountains near Alicante. First time I went to see Maigmo mountain with one of my room partners. And another time I went with my boss and Stuart and that time I took a lot of pictures. It was little cold at the top and we had snacks there. It was very pleasant to be there. We were lost there for a few minutes and it took a lot of time to find a way to go down from the mountain. [More]

I lived in Albufera for around six months. I was on the 12th floor the highest I have ever lived. It was a beautiful place and the most amazing thing was I could see my lab from my room where as its 5 Km. from there. The building was just in front of the Albufera beach. Its not that good beach but still some people like it a lot because its very lonely. [More]
;)
I was in Alcabo with one of my room partners and his girl friend. This is/was supposed to be a nude beach. But now a days since semi nude is allowed at all the beaches therefore its very rare to see nude people here. Anyway I liked it a lot. The buildings near it are very beautiful but very costly. [More]
;)
This is the best place for night walk. I love to go here in the night specially Explanada, a place in front of the port of Alicante. I find it very romantic place. I mean going with some one holding her hands and looking at the sea water and boats. For me its very fascinating. Its also famous for most of the good bars. [More]
;)
I had been to Campello with my boss many times and once with Lejla. I like the port of Campello. Its quite far from the university around 20 minutes by bus. Last time I was with my friend Santosh Anand and we discovered a small Island there. It was wonderful. We took a lot of pictures there. [More]
;)
Altea is one and half hour by train from Alicante Center. I went there with my colleagues in EGG, Alicante. It is very beautiful and different than Alicante. The beach has lot of stones. It was such a beautiful and sunny day. We spent the whole day and saw old town, church, mountains. One of the campus of UMH, Faculty of Arts is here and you can see a lot of art stuff around the campus. [More]

I got a chance to visit Dublin in Aug. 2005 when I was invited to give a talk there. It was a different experience because in Alicante it was quite hot and in Dublin it was cold and cloudy all the time. I went to meet my friends Niraj and Priya there. We tried to see a lot of places in Dublin. A very small and organized city and quite expensive too. [More]
;)
When I was in Ireland I got one day extra to visit because there was no flight available on Sunday and I had to choose a flight on Monday via Madrid. I arrived late at Dublin Airport and I missed my flight. Therefore I had to get another flight on the next day. I and my friends planned for Galway trip by Bus. We visited many places in Galway.

This was my second visit to the Netherlands. First was in 2003 when I went to Rotterdam. I like Netherlands a lot. I was glad to see Nijmegen, the oldest city in Netherlands around 2000 years old and this year they were celebrating a lot. It was raining all the time and I didn't have enough opportunity to visit places. [More]
;)
I was invited to give a talk about Micro-Mar at Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology, Bremen, Germany. Germany was exactly the same as I imagined. I liked everything from plane to train and hotel and technology park etc. Unfortunately I didnt have much time to see Bremen but I am pretty sure it must be very beautiful. [More]
;)
I was invited for a talk and interview at MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, UK. It was very cold there. I saw snow for the first time. I was giving talk at that time and therefore I couldn't take pictures of snow. I really liked Cambridge and it was lot above my expectations. I liked all shopping complexes very similar to Cannaught Place in New Delhi, India. I stayed in Trinity College guest house. Over all it was a memorable journey. [More]

I am studying at University College Dublin, Ireland. Its the biggest and one of the top most universities in Ireland with more than 20000 students. I have liked the study environment a lot. They have a very good student help desk. First time I saw a student help desk which really helps students. It's quite big in terms of area too. It might take more than 30 minutes to walk from one corner to another. I have really enjoyed myself a lot while studying here.

This lake is very near to my place where I stay. Not a very famous place but still I liked it. One day just after lunch we decided to go for a walk and then we had a view of this lake and it was terrific specially the pics. It was around 2 km. walk and we got tired a bit and then we decided to go for ice creams and there are a few open guarden restaurants near by where we had ice cream and cold drink.

I went to Mysore with my students Manish, Pradeep, Renu, Sunil and my brother Anil P. Kaveendra. It was a memorable journey. We stayed there for two days and visited many places including Tipu Sultan's Palace and King's Palace. We saw Kavery Dam and a lot of beautiful parks. It was a lot of fun. We enjoyed ourselves a lot.

I have visited Manipal a few times because my brother was studying at Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal. He was studying Master of Technology in Computer Networking. It's a very beautiful small town mostly occupied by Manipal University, a very big university. It's near to Udupi.
