Skin & Hair Care Goodies from Lux Grand Gaube, Mauritius

My birthday just went by and any excuse to celebrate is welcome in my land. So, to generally chill out, the hubby and I decided to spend a day at the Lux Grand Gaube, Mauritius. It is one of the island’s premier hotels and is quite amazing, to say the least!

Anyhow, the staff there is just fabulous and in addition to having a great day, I was spoilt to the core by being gifted this amazing bag full of goodies from the Lux Me Spa.

Inspirational thoughts - My tryst with Rainbows

It was a warm sunny afternoon and I was driving through the city, soaking in the sunshine. Even though it was a beautiful day, my mind was occupied with the grave intensity of the situation I was currently confronted with:  a new place, new people, new language and no familiarity in sight. All that I knew, loved and was comfortable with seemed to have been left far far behind. How was I to go on? What would I go on with? Why was I doing this to myself? These questions seemed to go on relentlessly and my mind, given a so-called reason to be entangled, was happily obliging me with its usual games: This was a wrong decision! You are meant to be doing other things…..You are wasting your time….!!

Time…the irrefutable sovereign…who can be a friend and an enemy at the same time! How strange is its influence and how vulnerable we are to its prowl! Thinking of what I had left behind was overwhelming me to the point of feeling claustrophobic.

Let's Begin...!!!

Hello there!!

As this is my first blog post, I thought it would be worth while to take a few moments to introduce myself and my blog. My name’s Nirupama; am an Indian currently living in Mauritius.

I consider myself to be someone with a keen eye for detail and in the process, I often come across things which are startlingly beautiful and inspiring and which we may not really notice in the hustle and bustle of our every day lives. Through this blog, it’s my attempt to bring to you something beautiful and inspiring out of everyday things.

I will be sharing real experiences with you; ones that have inspired me and would hopefully inspire you too. I will also share with you titbits revolving around beauty, fashion, lifestyle and travel…again, anything that makes me happy.

My idea is for my blog to offer a word of inspiration or add a touch of beauty which may just lift your spirit, even if just a tiny bit. And if it happens to make you smile, then I would consider my mission accomplished.

And oh, regarding ‘CatchPressions’: well, this is just an attempt to catch those expressions which lift my soul.

And thus begins our journey…

xoxo
