Our Valley of Flower trek was called off after days of relentless rains. So, we stayed in, sipped chai on the balcony and watched the Ganga breathe mist into the dusky twilight.

We got back to our Sunday morning runs after a few weeks off due to an ankle injury. Turns out, a 5K after a short break can stir up enough endorphins to put out an Instagram reel - even about your post-run iced coffee. Cheers!

Swipe for a story scripted by @momomedia.in

Pic 1 - The first proper office which we finalised in 2017. @insta.anant took this picture to give a sense of scale of the space to @akhillestook . Just about enough for 2 tables & 3 chairs.

Pic 2 - Recreating the same pose from the new @momomedia.in office. More desks and more power for sure.

Here’s to another year of filling up iCloud storage with random selfies

#nye2023

@momomedia.in team photos are a strictly wide-angle affair now

pov: this inconsequential discussion is still interesting after ~6 hours

Got some stuff from one of my favourite YouTube creators @thebigforkers ! Check ‘em out if you haven’t yet. They are coming out with a new Bangalore season too.

Definitely need to see more @bhukkkadbiker & @filanderingforker quotes on t-shirts, mugs and coasters!

ye!
