Braving The Tide

Finding Bliss on India's Only Drive-in Beach in Muzhappilangad

The tranquility of an early morning is second to none. In my opinion, you get a heartwarming view of humanity in the wee hours, one that’s rare to see once the harsh reality of the sun kicks everyone into a forceful start and people are rushed into their day-to-days. The people look alert and purposeful, they’re filled with optimism for the day ahead, and it’s beautiful to see the softer side of things. Smiles are abundant, friendly waves aren’t uncommon, and curiosity is seen as a welcome addition to the heartfelt gratefulness that there’s another day to be witnessed and experienced. It’s all rather delightful.
