nThinking back, it would have to be my honeymoon in London last August. I was in Europe at the time, touring with my band Rhythmscape. But tour complete, the band returned to India and I went on to London where I met up with Jaya.

We spent an idyllic two weeks there and stayed at this lovely rented apartment on High Street in Kensington. While I?ve been visiting London since 1990 and am quite familiar with the city, it was a first for Jaya. So yes, we did go to all the usual places. It was a different experience though, as earlier, I?d always visited London on work. It was great exploring it with Jaya.

While in London, we?d experiment with a lot of different food and the Moroccan restaurants were a favourite. Shopping was also on our agenda as were long walks near Hyde Park. We even took a few days off to visit Cambridge,Chelmsford and Southend.

On the whole, my honeymoon in London was an unforgettable experience. And I can?t wait to take Jaya back. This time though, I?d like to explore the North of England ? places like Wales and Scotland ? with her.
