“2009 feels like yesterday. My first trip to India was an eye-opener – it made my heart explode in all the good ways.”

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

One trip, and I was hooked

Back in 2009, I landed in India for the first time, and nothing about me came home the same. What started as one trip has turned into a yearly pilgrimage, each one teaching me more about the culture, the food, the customs, the cities, and the incredible people who make this country what it is.

Fast forward, and I’m now getting ready for trip number eighteen. Somewhere along the way, “just visiting” turned into something much bigger: bringing home the treasures made by the artisans I’d met, and sharing their stories along with them.
