I was gonna wait till tomorrow to post this but I can’t. Simply because the trip is so vivid in my memory and I want to share before I forget something. Also I’ve decided to let the pictures do the talking (like my Goa photo-journey inspired blog); but suffice to say the Sula Festival in Nasik (which I last went to in 2008) is bigger and better than ever before. I cannot urge you enough to make sure you come next time if you missed it (because if you were there you know what I mean!) Super food, happy people, live music under the open sky and just a whole lot of love, wine-induced or otherwise 🙂 I’ve returned from a little piece of paradise wishing I could do it all over again tomorrow (and once you see my pictures I bet you will too!)

So waddya say? Shall we consider it a done deal for next year? Its just so breath-taking even my pictures don’t do justice… Imagine 1500 people watching groovy tunes at an incredibly well-manicured amphitheater at a massive vineyard overlooking the ghats, while the sun sets. *sigh* I love living in India all over again 🙂 What’s the verdict on Sula Fest 2010?

Great food, hot music, cold drinks. Enough said.
