LOVE THISS!! Bought back a loot of memories from Goa! I was living in Goa for a year there, and now I’m back in home at Kerala! 🌴

Looking forward to more of your reads!

Ahh thanks so much Anjali - and so happy to have you as a new subscriber! Goa is such a special place. I've also been to Kerala, more recently, and really liked it too!

Arjun sounds like a really cool person. Major props to that man. Also, I miss riding around on my scooter in the Philippines. I LOVE how freeing it feels. If I lived on an island and got to ride a scooter every day to get around, I'd be very happy. Looking forward to chapter 13.
