Been exactly a yr since we moved to a farm outside the city - exactly a yr since we are trying to figure out if it was a right decision!

Though highly romanticised, moving to a rural area and living a life unknown to you has its challenges.

Had a great time learning about #theyyam in north #kerala. Really wish i could have spend more time.

Theyyam is a religious art form found only in the malabar region of north kerala - it has dravidian influence and each theyyam represents a a goddess / god / deity. It is believed that the deity possess the artist while they perform!

My ridge gourd is not doing well and i tried few solutions i found in some blogs, mot working. Know any #farming / #gardening folks here who might be able to help?

Missing these goofballs. They are in a kennel when partner and i travel. This is probably the longest we have been away.

Breaks my heart when i imagine their anticipation of our return and the sense of abandonment they must be feeling right now

They take the job very seriously!
The need to touch!
