Travelling to India was by far, my most favorite trip. I had the chance to visit Chennai, India because of work and I'm thankful I was given that opportunity. The country is vibrant, colorful, and enriching. Chennai was beyond my expectations. I was ready to experience a busy city, filled with so many people, and high-rise buildings. However, when I reached the place, I was greeted with Chennai's laid-back feels. It was home to many nostalgic artefacts and museums. My heart was really happy that I got to travel here. On top of that, perks of the job was to stay in one of the most famous hotels in India: The Leela Palace in Chennai.
Sharing with you some of the photos I took during the trip.

| Funny story: I saw that they had a Library Blu. My heart leaped for joy and I couldn't wait to visit it after the event. When I stepped in, I realized it was actually a bar and not an actual library. |
