En-route To Selfie Heaven

Indian vacations have become more and more exotic as tourists leave India for increasingly more distant lands. Perhaps one of the most popular destinations for tourists of all ages is San Jose in the Silicon Valley – yes the original one not the Indian versions!

Silicon Valley boasts of the heart of innovation as it is the home to Apple, Google, Facebook and other lesser known entities. These companies are responsible for our passion for smartphones.

The advent of smartphones has seen an increase in the number of photographs taken and the ever popular selfies. These omnipresent devices are being used to track down technological touchstones scattered around the San Francisco Bay area known better as Silicon Valley.

Selfies are taken at all the premises and there is nothing as exciting as taking a picture of oneself in front of Facebook and then posting it on Facebook!
