• Mumbai Diaries : ‘The hills’ in art & travel

  

  Its raining cats and dogs here. The monsoons officially began on the 7th, a day after my birthday. The temperatures dipped on the 1st of June which was one of the highlights of my special day. We had some rains on an off but not enough to declare the monsoons had begun. It was like…

• Mumbai Diaries: Conversation, Celebration, Art

  

  Hello Everybody, I’ve had a busy last four days which is a good thing since we are still under lockdown and because of the cyclone Tauktae which hit Mumbai on the 17th of May, we have been locked indoors. This time I mean it literally. With a wind speed of 40-55 kmph, we had to…

• NaPoWriMo Day 19- Ok. I Said it!

  

  And last but not least, our prompt (optional, as always). Today, I’d like to challenge you to write a humorous rant.
