About

This blog celebrates everything I am passionate about, everything that gives me a high, everything that sets my soul on fire, and everything that makes my life MY life.

Updating (November 2019) the ‘About’ Page as a whole lot has happened since I launched my blog 🙂

We became parents and have a little one in our lives, and as expected, our whole lives changed, for the good!

Well, he isn’t little anymore. He is all of 2.5 years old and the boss of our lives and home. Life has become even more beautiful (and a lot more challenging) since he came into our lives. Well, I wouldn’t expect anything less or want to have it any other way. 

I am sure you have already seen him all over this blog and my social channels.

But for the rest, everything else remains the same, so read on…

P.S. Another change, as far as my blog is concerned, I switched over from the Blogger platform to WordPress platform, hoping that life will get a lot easier and save me a whole lot of time. And hence this section is updated as well. 

Though I miss my previous website dearly, it was hours/weeks/months of labor of love and hard work.

P.S. The color gold is also a new addition to the blog.

This blog celebrates everything I am passionate about, everything that gives me a high, everything that sets my soul on fire, and everything that makes my life MY life.

An attempt to do everything extraordinary –

Life is too short to live ordinarily; I spice it up in my own way, try to fly high, and always reach for the stars…

Capturing life’s little adventures –

‘It’s all the little moments that make life a very big adventure.’

A better self-everyday –

‘Look in the mirror, that’s your competition.’

Working towards a healthy mind, body & soul –

‘Being healthy isn’t a fad or a trend, it’s a lifestyle.’

Seek genuine and meaningful relationships –

‘Surround yourself with people who make you hungry for life, touch your heart, and nourish your soul.’

‘Life’s too short for fake food or fake friends.’

Make memories all over the world –

‘I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.’

‘We travel not to escape life but for life not to escape us.’

‘Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.’

The story behind the name

Though the name came rushing to me while on a flight several years ago, it’s not just another travel blog but its any sweet escape from the ever-so-ordinary and monotonous life…

 And the bizarre spelling you ask (I am forever the one to look for hidden meanings, life seems too boring otherwise ;)), – its the V from my hubby dear’s initial and the K from mine. Ever since I met my him (eons ago), nothing I do feels complete without him, he’s the driving force in my life, after all, he puts up with all my madness and backs me in all my craziness.

This blog just wouldn’t be if not for my darling husband’s unconditional love & support.

He is the developer of the blog while I am the designer, and he is the editor of the blog posts while I am the writer.

He absolutely, truly, undoubtedly is the sweet behind all my escapes!!

Now, why ‘a million fancies…’?

Do you feel that you want to do a zillion things but just not sure where to begin?

Are you passionate about umpteen number of things but just can’t put your finger on one thing and call it your favorite?

Do you feel so strongly about a gazillion things and yet not sure how to take it to the next level?

Me too, me too, me too…

It’s the million fancies in my dreamy eyes (read crazy head :p).

Hence the name, SveetesKapes, a million fancies…

I am a sucker for Turquoise color, a shade of orange with it is a match made in heaven, and they had to be my signature colors for the blog! 😉

This blog is finally getting to see the day of the light after 4 long years,

I hope you enjoy reading the blog as much as I enjoy writing it!

What’s your SveetesKapes?
