Back with a bang!

Hello! everybody out there. I’m back here! And that too with a bang. Been on an Italy and Israel tour with my family. And my wife strictly warned me of “blogging” especially antique blogging, while we were on the tour.

We both took out some precious time, from the busy and hectic schedule, to spend some quality time with each other. It was one of ours great and lovely tour.

It was much fun traveling and more traveling, from one place to another. Italy, as you all know is like heaven on earth, besides being the fashion capital and one of the most romantic places to visit.

On the other hand, Israel is nice place for hunting antiques. Israel has always been one of my most loved place for antiques, ranging from all odds and ends. Besides, being a good place for touring around.

So, when were in Israel, my sweet darling warned me of “antiques”, but still my eyes searched and glanced at one or the other master pieces. I really felt like buying all those antiques at any price. But the look in my wife’s eyes scared me, made me drop the plan.

But now I’m back. Master of myself (maybe!). Well, it’s always a good indeed a very good idea to take out some time for ones family, and spend great time with them. Above all, why do earn millions and millions of bucks.

Yes! To splurge it with your family and of course yourself.
