About me


The backstage artist who is sculpting this blog “A GLOBETROTTERS ANECDOTE” is an engineer turned teacher by profession, working in one of the leading and well-reputed institution in Chennai and an active travel junkie by passion.

The habit of reading travelogue from the special editions of the daily newspaper during my childhood had made travelling a serious thing and had changed a lot in my life.

Inspired from well know travel blogs in the digital forum “what else can I do? “ And inbound traveller in me leads to start travel blogging in 2013. After that steady start in blogging latterly I discovered some equal spaces between my profession and passion.
What you can expect from this blog?
This blog is determined to share some interesting travelogue and to discover lesser known as well as lesser crowded places which are not listed in the usual travel websites. The essential things of my travel such as destination, accesses, approach and the entire trip would be in different perspectives.

I would conclude in this digital juncture and say "Hello everyone, I'm Jose Edwin and welcome to my blog”. If you want to ask any, shoot your questions in contact section.
