Effect of the lock-down on my mental health
So some of you may know this and some may not. I live alone in Italy and I’ve been pursuing my masters here for a little longer that half a year. While every person I know decided to leave the country before things went down with corona, I decided to stay. I’m not saying either […]

Second month in Milan
The start of this month was terrible but it only got better after that and hasn’t stopped. Terrible, why? I had a group of friends my brother and I went to church with for one or two years till my brother moved abroad. For me, they were really close but my dad wouldn’t let me […]

First month in Milan
I’m going to keep this as positive as I can while being completely honest. I landed here one month ago. A new country all by myself where I don’t even know the local language. I had to get to my AirBnB with two big trolleys, one large backpack and one handbag. Thanks to my social […]

But you’re such a brave girl
I think that’s all I hear from everyone I meet anymore. That’s all they can seem to say, seeing my unlined eyes and messy hair. Am I, really? Because I don’t feel it at all, at least not in the past month. Everything seems to be crumbling down faster than I’m able to run around […]

Is Happiness a choice?
Happiness is a state of mind. Your state of mind. Who do you think is responsible to keep it peaceful/sane? I think happiness is a personal choice. I didn’t approach it that way before but now, I do strongly feel it’s a choice. Your choice. It’s easy to sit back and think you are a […]

2018 Dandeli- Two girls on an adventure
Having mostly taken off on leisure vacations before, Dandeli showed me how extremely different an adventurous trip was from them. Two girls, one two wheeler and a forest to sum it up in a sentence. We took a sleeper bus from Bangalore to the Dandeli bus stand. With a package pre-booked with Rangers Camp homestay, […]
