On 22 February, we published a story about a stray dog in Goa, which approached a tourist. The dog hopped up on the scooter, and refused to leave, waiting for the tourist to start the scooter and ride away.

The tourist, and many who saw the video of this event, said that it was very cute, the dog had adopted the tourist, and that the dog had wanderlust and so on. However, things are…

Indeed, the festival’s name itself is an ode to the idea of openness — to unexpected experiences. Vidya Thirunarayan…

A few years ago, General Motors launched the electric version of the legendary Hummer SUV in the market. One feature that captured the attention of enthusiasts around the world was the crab walk feature. This feature allowed the Hummer EV to drive sideways, which was quite interesting to look at.
