MORNING LIGHT & SHIVA

OUR ANGELS OF THIS CITY OF JAIPUR... ALI AND LUCKY 

ALI RUNS A LOCAL TEXTILE FACTORY, AN AMAZING MAN WHO DONATES AS A WAY OF LIFE AND DOES AN AWESOME AUSTRALIAN ACCENT.

GOLD DUST. HAND PRINTED ONTO FABRICS. STUNNING. 

BROMANCE. 

THE WORKERS FROM THIS TEXTILE FACTORY COME FROM POVERTY HOMES AND PROCEEDS OF THE SALES GO TO THE WORKERS AND THEIR FAMILIES. THEY IMPORT ALL OVER THE WORLD INCLUDING PIECES WHICH SELL AT MAJOR LUXURY BRAND STORES FOR 10X THE PRICE.

COMMENCING THE ART OF SARI!
......READY TO TAKE ON BOLLYWOOD......

TODAY WAS THE MOST INCREDIBLE DAY OF MY LIFE. SERIOUSLY. WE WERE BIRTHED ONTO THE TRAIN TRACKS AFTER BARELY WIPING THE RESIDUE OF AN 18 HOUR TRAIN JOURNEY AWAY FROM MY MIND AND FACE, SWEPT UP BY ALI, A LOCAL WHO RUNS RICKSHAWS WITH HIS FRIEND LUCKY. TOGETHER THEY ARE A-TEAM, TEAM JAIPUR. THESE CATS WHISKED US FROM PLATFORM TO ACCOMMODATION TO TEXTILE MAKER TO GURU TO MOUNTAINTOP OVERLOOKING CITY LIGHTS TO WATER PALACE BACK HOME TO BED. IF EVER THERE WAS A DAY TO ECLIPSE ALL OTHERS THIS WOULD COME CLOSE.
