Travelling in India
Jaisalmer Fort - Rajasthan - 2019
INDIA
The crazy and confronting country where people ride on the roofs of trains and buses, street kids and dogs all around and where people are on the phone for 12 hours straight on a sleeper train that was 6 hours late.
The country where literally anything can happen.
The country of the ever confusing head wobble that can mean anything you want it to.
“You are absolutely never ready for India. But the good thing is, India is always ready for you.”

To me, India has always represented ‘everything’; it represents ‘all.’
Everything is here.
You can stay here forever, and you’ll never feel like you’ve missed out on life.

There are three trips you take to India: the one you think you’re going to have – that you plan for;
the one you actually have; and the one you live through once you go back home.

You never change your life until you step out of your comfort zone
