About Me — Nanda
Hi, I’m Nanda
I was born and raised in Kerala, India, and I come from the city of Calicut. If you’ve never been here, let me give you a quick tour.
First, we have camels on the beach for absolutely no reason. Nobody knows why they’re there, but they are.
Second, food is basically our love language. Calicut is filled with endless streets of snacks and cafés, and after 6 p.m., it feels like the whole city steps out to eat. Families, friends, couples. Everyone’s at some café, talking, laughing, and enjoying the evening.
The weather here is… moody. In the morning, it might be raining with a dramatic little storm, and by 2 p.m., it will be hotter than Megan Fox in Transformers. I’m not even exaggerating. If you hang your clothes out to dry, they’ll be CRISP by noon.
Life in Calicut is like that: unpredictable but kind of fun if you go along with it.
I’m a student, juggling all the endless tasks and duties that come with it, while my brain runs around with a million thoughts and ideas that I would love to share.
My mum’s an endodontist, my dad’s an orthodontist, and my younger brother is too young to decide what kind of chaos he wants to bring to the world.
