Pallavi Sharda Instagram – Trips to the Indian Ocean. I was born here, on these shores, across the pond from where my parents emigrated. Stops here are becoming the most spiritual of resting moments. I’m here now, and reminded of the most magical day I had a few months ago.
I haven’t been posting much, the noise in the world isn’t something I feel compelled to add to. But my birthday this year, spent so simply with my mum and dad feels worth commemorating. They sat on top of the hill at Cottosloe Beach while I got salty and snotty between ocean dips… I was spoilt rotten in the most desi of ways. Mama spooning Kaddi Chawal into styrofoam cups (I think it’s going to take a generation to before the aunty community learns the environmental downside of convenience) and papa ever ready with a ‘flask’ of hot chai.
This is the Australia I love. When its inner bloom peaks…a golden sun, pristine waters, and the subtle freedom to express who we are.
