Homecoming

Walking through Mumbai's chaos and vitality, I felt the presence of my dad's childhood in its streets, its contradictions, its relentless energy. In Trivandrum, I found a quieter knowing, a landscape that held my grandmother's stories and the rhythms of Kerala's backwaters and monsoons. These weren't trips to discover something new; they were pilgrimages to understand where I come from, to stand in the places that made my family, to feel the inheritance I carry in my body.
