IT'S FESTIVAL TIME

The festivities are in the air, I can literally smell them, and I am sure you can too. With September coming to an end, I can feel a little nip in the air (on the days it' s not raining). For me, this nip in the air is a signal of the upcoming wintery season which is just love. It' s my second favourite time of the year after monsoons. This season just fills me up with unexplained happiness and positivity, come October and I already start waiting for Christmas. Spilling over this happiness and positivity in this issue, there is definitely a lot to look forward to.
