SIMILIPAL –  A “potential” tiger reserve..

I use the word potential because, stretched over an area of 2750 square km, which is much more than the other national parks like Kanha & Bandhavgarh in India, Similipal is yet to be declared as a National Park.

Looking Beyond!!!

After many days of keeping a word document open with just 3 words “Sometime I Wish” and trying to find out what I should  actually pen down, I realised there is nothing particular that I wish.

Satkosia….. Another Tale of Odisha !
