From Jenice — Travel Writer & Cultural Guide
"Before I ever stepped foot in India, the country lived in my imagination in two very specific ways — the undeniable grace of the Indian women I watched on the international pageant stage, and the profound kindness of a missionary nun from India who stayed with my family in the 90s. In 2015, I finally went. Goa's Portuguese churches gave me a feeling I recognized — a Filipino in a place that was also shaped by Iberian history, also left with cathedrals and contradictions. Mumbai's spice markets bent my frame of reference entirely. India is a land of contrasts, history, and heart. I feel so fortunate to have seen these parts of the world firsthand."Read Jenice's full India story →
