MY ZESTEXPERIENCE!

I have never in my life found myself in a situation where I've stopped work and said, 'Thank God it's Friday.' But weekends are special even if your schedule is all over the place. Something tells you the weekend has arrived and you can indulge yourself a bit.
-Helen Mirren

This precisely defines a blogger's life who has a full-time job besides a blog to keep! Pretty much defines me. I am working 24x7 and it makes me happy. And when work comes in the form of a weekend getaway to Goa, it only gets better! When the people at Blogadda popped the question, all I could say was YES! I promised you all the updates as we started our packing! I am sure you enjoyed the week before the trip on TWITTER & INSTAGRAM for all the crazy packing/styling updates. In case you missed it, I am sharing it all here! The people at SPLASH , ACCESSORIZE and KOOVS.COM gladly agreed to partner in the crime! And I am glad you liked what I wore. Thanks for your lovely feedback!

So , all you curious people, here's what I did at the ZEST showcase:

Date: 27 July

Venue: Zuri White sands resort,Varca Beach, Goa

Hosts: Blogadda & TATA Zest

So who were all the people with me?: About 50 TOP bloggers across India with their blogs in various categories like Technology/Fashion/Beauty/Lifestyle/Food/Photography/Parenting/Life/Personal and the list goes on!

What was in it for me? I had the most amazing time meeting so many passionate bloggers across India with different perspectives. I also got a chance to lay my hands on a Gear-less automobile that boasts of being the best in its segment and I can only be more sure about that, thanks to my driving partner. Read my mini car review here.

Why should you be Reading my car review? Because I am like any other consumer who understands what she wants. My needs go beyond technology.(Oh btw,Don't forget I am a computer Science Engineer) I look for luxury,comfort, safety, personality in a car.You can go to various technology websites to read the actual technical specifications of the TATA zest. But if you want to hear from a consumer's point of view, the description changes. If I say - "This peplum trend in galaxy prints with tailored palazzos in solids gives you a slimming silhouette " . You might just run away from my blog. :D

That my dear friends is the technical specs of a fashion trend . Instead if I was to say that -"Do you want to head out to a girl's day out in a comfortable yet chic way? Pick your tops in Peplum trend which have a frill at the waist in bright prints and combine it with wide-legged pants which are amazingly comfortable and chic aka palazzos. This look makes your waist look thinner and almost hides that bottom cellulite ."

The second statement is something you can relate to and might be tempted to try. So, do read my review if you also feel that Gear-less driving is your thing!

In this post I take you through the most amazing weekend I spent with fellow bloggers and mind you, I had no time to myself because I was LIVE blogging/tweeting/instgraming besides 15 minutes breaks for re-fuelling and 10 minutes at ZURI's most amazing private beach. Enjoy the amazing moments from my ZEST EXPERIENCE:

DAY 1: With the people who made the ZEST happen. And Narain Karthikeyan, our F1 hero!A short escape to the white sands beach at ZURI

DAY 2: Prepping up for the ZEST drive. 25kms x 2 trips in petrol and diesel version. LIVE BLOGGING and heading back home!

I know for sure I am gonna get my ZEST soon! If only you please :D

Hope you enjoyed the post as much as I enjoyed the ZEST experience. Thank you BLOGADDA and TATA motors. I had a CRAZY action-packed weekend!

AFRAID of the GEARBOX? The TATA Zest heard you!

ME: Driving? Cars? I would , if they had no gears. I don't like the gears . I don't just get them! Perhaps , I can do with a toy car. Like the ones at the gaming arenas? Why don't they get real? I could handle gears if they would switch by themselves. I mean who would like to keep a check on gears, while they enjoy the drive? The drive's gotta be smooth. Stress-free. I mean gears add to stress! Don't they?

SOMEONE: You know what? You are afraid of driving. STOP those EXCUSES!

ME: (clicks on a button) [Fast Forward]....27th JULY 2014.After the TATA ZEST test drive , You know what? I LOVE DRIVING, only if it is the TATA ZEST AMT .

SOMEONE: Your toy car dream?

ME: Just got real !!!!!! ( dances away in ZESTY joy.........)

Alright, I know most of you can relate to this special Dis-Affinity to Gears! And cite this as the sole reason to not enjoy driving. BLessed, we are , as TATA realised this and built the swanky looking ZEST AMT , with style, substance, and an automated manual transmission exactly what we were looking for!

Here are the top 5 reasons why I will pick a TATA ZEST over any other sedan:

1. GO GEAR-LESS, BE FEARLESS: The automated manual transmission is the first of its kind in the DIESEL segment. It gives the gears a miss & also the clutch. You have only the brake and the accelerator on the foot and you are ready to ZOOM!

2. I HAVE PERSONALITY, DO YOU? A highly passionate team of engineers and designers have ensured the car has PERSONALITY. Don't we equate the car looks with our personal style? This car is loaded with tons of attitude and charisma.

3. I HEAR YOU: The voice recognition system is unlike others. The lady speaks in English that is, well Indian . Stop laughing, I mean No accent, this time! A predefined set of COMMANDS lets you do all the controlling you need: SET AC temperature, SET FAN SPEEDS, Connect Bluetooth. Play your favorite tracks.It connects with you , like no one does. Multiple devices connect through bluetooth. The list goes on...

4. ZEST GIVES YOU REST: What is a long drive without comfort?Those fluffy Sofas might feel a complex after seeing those cosy ZEST seats. Sit back, relax and relieve your stress. I almost felt like I was in a lounge. Leg space galore, and so much room above your head.

5. There are Another 24 REASONS: Ok, I am tired , but the people at ZEST have about 29 reasons why you should pick it up! If 8 speakers play surround sound on a sedan which has technologies adapted from world-class SPORTS cars, I might as well stop thinking and GO ZEST!
