One of my many homes was the beautiful and different Chapel Road in Bandra West, Mumbai. I still remember the warm vibe of the twisted lanes and the noise of the rickshaws zooming pass my home. Once I had settled in, I would always look for excuses to walk around the locality. Thankfully on Chapel Road, every turn is a good excuse to discover on foot.
In my recent visit to Mumbai, I walked down the familiar streets to indulge in some nostalgia once again. And to my delight, nothing had changed. I passed by the prominent graffiti in the lanes and entered by favourite cafe, Birdsong, once again to work. Here are some photographs from my time there. Welcome home to creativity!
