#somadey — Public Fediverse posts

I have changed since I started travelling. It taught me that etiquette is more than manners. Even something as simple as waiting for someone to finish speaking.
Taking this opportunity to remind everyone about my book, inspired by such observations gathered along the way. #frhtug #travel #book #author #somadey

Kobiraji Cutlet - one of Kolkata’s most iconic snacks! Born during the British colonial era, its name comes from “coverage cutlet,” referring to the signature crispy egg net covering a juicy fish, chicken, or mutton cutlet inside. A delicious blend of British cutlet style and Bengali culinary magic, best served with mustard and nostalgia.

Tintin is spending a lovely time...

The cup has turned into a little lake, where clouds drift above and birds pass by in wonder. Tell me, wouldn’t you like to wander into this little neighborhood too?

Künefe was being devoured in India as I casually scrolled through my Turkey memories… and then almost on cue - a sudden hiccup. There it was: my very first künefe moment, captured in a little restaurant by the Sea of Marmara, Istanbul.

I sat there, completely awestruck.

More of these unexpected journeys and moments are in my book - "From the Reluctant Homebody to the Unanticipated Globetrotter"...

8 years ago, before apps and tablets took over digital drawing, I wrestled with a computer mouse on a paint application. This is from that vintage era…

In the moonlight, horses grazing and gazing, their gentle munching turning the night into a slow, breathing poem.

A superhero at ease… I called him "Breadman", the mighty "Yawn Breadman". A tribute I hope Don Bradman would loaf. 🫡🫢🫣

In him, time slows.
Ego falls to ash.
Fire becomes purification.
Silence becomes power.
Endings become beginnings.
This is Shiva - not a god of destruction, but the keeper of transformation.

That day, they wore matching outfits and enjoyed a cheerful conversation under the clear blue sky. It felt as perfect as a memory painted in gold - one of those rare moments where there was simply nothing more to add - especially when they had their dedicated paparazzi (me) 🙃

"Mienai akai ito ga yubi o musubu" 📍
"An unseen red string ties the fingers"
In the Japanese legend of the Red String of Fate, those destined to meet are bound by an invisible red thread.
It may stretch across time and distance, but it never breaks.
