**"Around the World, Together"** For as long as I can remember, I dreamed of traveling the world. But like many, life’s routine and responsibilities kept those dreams on hold. Then I met Sravanthi, and I knew instantly that we shared the same love for adventure and exploration. We decided not to wait for the "perfect time"—we’d travel the world together while we were still young, healthy, and full of curiosity. After we got married, we made the decision to take a year off from our regular lives. We would pack our bags, explore the world, and make memories together. Our first stop? Malaysia. We began in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s bustling capital. The city’s skyline, dominated by the Petronas Towers, took our breath away. We wandered through the vibrant streets, exploring local markets, savoring delicious street food, and soaking in the diverse culture. But the real magic came when we left the city and headed to Langkawi. Langkawi was paradise. Its lush rainforests, pristine beaches, and crystal-clear waters felt like a world away from the city’s hustle. We spent our days lounging on the beaches, taking boat trips to nearby islands, and enjoying breathtaking views from the Langkawi Sky Bridge. After Malaysia, we took gap of 1 year and flew to the UAE, starting with Dubai. The city was a blend of futuristic architecture and rich history. We stood in awe before the towering Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, and shopped in the world’s largest mall, Dubai Mall. One of our most memorable experiences was a desert safari. We sped across golden dunes in a 4x4, then enjoyed a traditional Arabic dinner under the stars. Dubai’s energy was contagious, and every day brought something new and exciting. After a few days in Dubai, we made our way to Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE. The sheer beauty of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque was humbling—its pristine white marble and intricate designs left us speechless. We also explored the Louvre Abu Dhabi, which housed a stunning collection of art from all over the world. Our journey through Malaysia, Langkawi, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi was an adventure of a lifetime. Each place offered something unique, from the vibrant energy of Kuala Lumpur to the peaceful beauty of Langkawi, and from the futuristic luxury of Dubai to the serene magnificence of Abu Dhabi. We didn’t just visit places—we experienced them, together. By the end of our travels, we realized it wasn’t just the destinations that made the journey unforgettable—it was the memories we created side by side. The world is vast, but with Sravanthi by my side, it felt like the perfect size. Our adventure may have ended, but we knew this was just the beginning. The world was still waiting for us.

Deepa and I started Iris Image Studio fueled by our shared passion for art and storytelling. As a photographer, I focused on capturing emotions, while Deepa, with her unmatched styling skills, added magic to every frame. Starting in Patiala wasn’t easy—balancing family, financial challenges, and countless sleepless nights tested us. But Deepa’s optimism and creativity kept us going. Beyond the studio, we share a love for exploring the world, drawing inspiration from different cultures. Today, as we capture life’s most precious moments for families, our journey reflects our bond—built on love, resilience, and a shared dream to create and explore together.

By being travel lover I with my husband went on to Exploring the Hidden Gems of Vietnam in 2022 on our first wedding anniversary celebration When i first set foot in Hoi an, Vietnam , I was overwhelmed by its beauty. The bustling streets, vibrant colors, and intoxicating aromas filled the air as I made my way through famous lantern boat ride. But little did I know, the true magic lay in the hidden gems waiting to be discovered off the beaten path. One morning, while sipping coffee at a local cafe I struck up a conversation with a friendly barista named sherin . She shared stories of her favorite spots, places that tourists easily overlook, I decided to follow her advice and ventured into the less-traveled areas of the city. My first stop was hoian market, a quaint little market bursting with artisanal goods and handmade crafts. The vendors greeted me with warm smiles and offered samples of delectable treats. I savored Lotus Tes and it tasted like a piece of heaven! I felt a sense of connection here, surrounded by locals who welcomed me like family. Next, I wandered to Ninh binh, a stunning viewpoint that overlooked the city. The sky painted hues of orange and pink during sunset, and I felt a profound sense of gratitude for the day’s experiences. In that moment, I realized that traveling isn’t just about visiting popular attractions; it’s about connecting with the soul of a place. My heart swells every time I think back about those days in Vietnam, a reminder that the most beautiful adventures often lie in the unexpected. 🌟✈️ Help me by my making me win to join on this journey of discovering remaining part of Vietnam where I left my heart and let’s make another trip a treasure hunt
