its the monsoon season!
for many of us, the ideal way to experience the monsoons is from the comfort of our homes, along with some chai and pakoras. even while it may be tempting to stay inside at this time, rain brings out a new kind of beauty in the outdoors. our country has a lot to offer at this time of year, including fantastic food, breathtaking hikes, and magnificent waterfalls.
