Hi there!



Welcome to Cobblestone Chronicles! 

Sharing travel stories is always fun and easy but sharing them online is easier and when a group of oddballs come together and decide that they need a platform to share their bit of fascinating travel stories with the world…you have Cobblestone Chronicles!

We are Shamita, Neha, Ankur and Ajinkya – each one of us finding new ways to make the most of our travel memories and, when we’re not typing away work emails or catching up over the weekends, we’re thinking of ways to give you a glimpse of these travel stories! Packed with eventful writing, personal experiences and a whole lot of knowledge, our travel tales are sure to provide you with everything you need to know before you decide where to backpack!

Though we’re busy trying to make fascinating CV's instead of our own travel journals, we do love to venture out and rediscover ourselves, live in the moment, click pictures of sunsets and embarrassing travel selfies, ignore diet plans for the best food in town, fill in our travel diaries as much as we can and forget our gym membership more often than not. But honestly, who doesn’t, right? Unless you’re one of those, “ugh, another travel blog” kind of person, you’re going to have fun reading what we have in store for you! Our writing focuses on destinations we’ve individually been to and we hope our tales impel YOU to visit some of these absolutely breathtaking places because after all, life is a daring adventure or nothing at all, isn’t it?

Feel free to get in touch with us to share your travel stories, or just drop by to say Hi! Find us at: Cobblestone.Chronicles@gmail.com

Travel. Experience. Share.

You won’t believe me at first when I say, we’ve known the mystic land of Pench ever since we were little kids. We loved every bit of how fiction and reality interlaced, weaving an age old story of the adventurous little Mowgli and his wild friends who found comfort in the wilderness, swayed from branches all day, fought the mighty Shere Khan and went after the Red Flower! Take a peek into your childhood days when watching the venturesome Mowgli on TV made you smile. I remember how diligently I never missed an episode! In the cartoon, Mowgli’s home was the astounding forest of Pench, a place that inspired Rudyard Kipling to pen down one of the most loved and appreciated work of children’s literature; The Jungle Book. I almost instantly fell in love with this jungle on my very first safari, understanding why Kipling had decided upon this very forest as the setting for his story. Nestled in the Chhindwara and Seoni districts of Madhya Pradesh, Pench National Park g...

Central Austria: A Day in Winter Wonderland

The Austrian town of Hallstatt Set aside from the grandeur and the classic Viennese coffee and Sachertorte of the Austrian capital, nestled within the Salzkammergut mountains is the early Iron Age town of Hallstatt. This lakeside market town is home to one of the world’s oldest salt mines, and the Hallstattersee lake itself is the starting point for the world’s oldest industrial pipeline, which is operational to this date. Sounds like a very mundane run-of-the-mill industrial town, but do not let the initial description of the place deceive you. Hallstatt is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and having now become one of the most visited destinations, was recently popularised as the most Instagrammable town in the world. Ebensee Eager to see what the hype is all about, we boarded a train to Hallstatt from Vienna early in the morning. A late January winter’s day saw our view from the train transition from lush green meadows to an endless white carpet of fresh sno...
