A cup of Assam Tea

In my current homeland here in New England, summer is almost over. But in my other homeland in India, this is the mark of the festive season. The festive season unfolds with good food and chances of dressing up. However, the covid19 has changed everything as well as the way we celebrate festivities. The other day one of my friend invited us to an Indian festivity. I decided to step out of the mundane and dress something special. Then this pair of green mekhela chadar came to my mind.

Walking on the bridges of flowers is a blissful experience. Walk amidst flowers and trees overlooking the Deerfield River and mountains is something that everyone can enjoy.  Glacier potholes are located a few feet from the bridges of flower, downstream from the Shelburne Fa
