Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

Thursday 27th March We woke up and packed up our room and cases as we were checking out of the hotel later. Once all packed up and ready for the day, we wandered down to the harbour where we met mum and James for a morning drink in the sun by the water. Mum and…

Tuesday 25th March All five of us got a lovely upgrade to club on the flight thanks to Dad. The flight was 1h45 and we arrived just before 3pm local time. We got our bags and went through the airport to find the Metro to take a couple of trains and a bit of a…

Tuesday 18th Feb  As we boarded the plane at LHR we spotted dad’s bald head in the cockpit. He was preparing for the flight, so we didn’t get to chat to him as we boarded. Mum, James and Vrinda were given seats in club, as we made our way back to cattle class. We had…

Tuesday 17th September We had turned off our alarms the night before ready for a lazy morning after a busy trip so far. We definitely had a lazy morning and got up late morning to get ready for the day. We had arrived at our airbnb in the dark so hadn’t seen the amazing view…
