Round Trip

- Sharmi Adhikary

Atul first asks me, ‘So, tell me… should I book the container right away?’ Because, it has never happened that I have not brought back a substantial amount on each travel. Though I’ve never pre-empted the buy, when I walk into a store I just know what I want. It could be a flea market in Nigeria, the Grand Souk in Turkey, the streets of Romania or the roadside shops in Shanghai.”
