Monsoon Paradise

Agumbe! Not many may know of this place! Probably the reason why the place remains what it is today. It was meant to be a weekend getaway from the bash and dash of the Office.

But it turned out to be one of the best weekend I have spent ever!!
I always prided myself on being a nature lover and fairly knowledgeable in matters related to nature. Man what a humbling experience it was!! 

Thank You Amogh for the opportunity and Gowri for the Hands on Experience!! No words can even begin to describe the pleasure and eye opening experiences that I had over the weekend. Not the least, the company of some wonderful folks from all over. Guys!! Hope we meet again sometime soon!!!

Office no longer seems to be a burden after seeing Life and Death battle at such close quarters. 
I'll let the pictures talk hereon. Hopefully I have been able to do some justice to the awesome beauty of the place and the creatures that call the rain forest Home!!
