“To move, to breathe, to fly, to float,
To gain all while you give,
To roam the roads of lands remote,
To travel is to live.”
― Hans Christian Andersen, The Fairy Tale of My Life: An Autobiography
Dreamer, travel enthusiast, working woman and a wife, that’s me!
Born and brought up in India; a country rich in its heritage and culture; we moved to Seattle city in United States in early 2013 and have since then been exploring the region around. My husband and I are avid travelers and with him I have been roaming to many places and enjoying our pieces of adventure.
I believe in God and His wonderful creations. My blog is about this beautiful planet and its natural and scenic beauty as viewed through our eyes. This world is very vast and colorful and I would like everyone to see, feel and sense its wonders through my writing and photography through this website.
A corner of the world I share and a glimpse of yours you show;
And together we will travel around; steady and slow.

I have also created a FaceBook page ! Feel free to drop by and say “Hi”! I would love to hear from you!
All the photographs on this blog are taken by my husband or me. They are the sole property of cometravelalong.wordpress.com which owns the copyrights. Photos may not be used commercially without the express consent of the author.
I’d love to travel a lot, but that probably won’t happen in this lifetime, so I will make sure I follow your blog. It looks beautiful! Please do stop by mine, and maybe follow it back if you find something there to interest you. Happy blogging and travelling!

Hi Ruchi, thank you for following my blog. You have a wonderful blog! I lived in Washington for 23 years and I am loving your photos. I lived in Skagit and Island counties. From your photo it looks like you may have been to the Skagit Valey Tulip Festival. Since you like hiking, let me suggest a drive to Mt. Baker in late summer. There is a road and hiking trail above the ski area and the view from the top is Magnificent!! You will be above most of the other peaks but pick a sunny non cloudy day because if it’s cloudy you will also be above the clouds. Happy Exploring 🙂

Hello Ruchi, like yourself, the Pacific Northwest is my home though i am a little further north than you up here in Vancouver. I thank you for finding my site, and now that I’ve found yours, I’m sure I will be visiting you quite regularly as I already find myself quite interested in your lovely views of the world. So please don’t be a stranger, as you are always welcome here at Vancouver Visions, and I also will be visiting your site on a regular basis. I was thinking just now that if I stepped outside and called your name very loudly, you might even be able to hear me if it weren’t for the traffic noise on my street. Lol. I guess for now I had better stick with the comment section. 😉

Leaving from Seattle, I figure you are one hour from Vancouver, and maybe two from Whistler. Of course, that depends on how long they keep you at the border these days ;-).
