An ex banker, currently a B-school professor, travel writer, amateur photographer and an eternal beach lover with a view that "Life is Short & the World is Wide". Hailing from the beautiful city of Bhubaneswar, he has travelled extensively in India and has explored places in Thailand, Malaysia, Maldives, Seychelles, Italy, Philippines and Western Australia. His expertise lies in providing travel experiences, destination tips and featured guides. His idea of "nirvana" is to vegetate on the beach or wander aimlessly in the mountains.

It is the shoe destination of the city. With the fusion of national and international brands, you can find the choicest of slippers, flip-flops, sandals, formal shoes and sports shoes. Exclusive shops of Adidas, Reebok and Woodland shoes, local outlets like Trinity, Style shoes, Kolhapuri Mart and Shoe Bazaar and big outlets of Sreeleathers, Bata India and Khadims are present here. Rather than competing with each other and eroding potential market share, these shops have been prospering in Ashok Nagar for decades now. The varied tastes and requirements of the customers with respect to quality, range and budget ensures that all the shops coexist in harmony.
