We travel not to escape life, but to meet life in a different colour.

As a child, my father’s job made moving to different parts of India every couple of years a part of our family life. It would be correct to say that the seeds of the traveller and observer in me were sown early during those naïve days. Growing up in a multicultural environment helped me understand objectivity.
