NEIL in Nutshell

NEIL in Nutshell

My eyes adjust slowly to the blue haze. Sunbeams refracting underwater have lit up pockets of the ocean floor. From there, branching acropora corals stretch their arms, as if trying to embrace me. However, I know better -- corals are not to be touched. I pull gentle turtle strokes in the water wearing a snorkel. I am floating somewhere in the Bay of Bengal, off the coast of Neil Island (now known as Shaheed Dweep).

Fight Jet Lag

Travelling for work, pleasure and holidays is exciting but can also have a downside to it. Maintaining good sleep is essential to make the best enjoyment out of your trip. It is common to struggle with sleep while travelling especially if you cross more than two time zones.
