Monsoon -

If you plan to witness the monsoon, do so from a place that embraces it—like a tea estate in Munnar, a beach in Goa, or a temple in Udaipur. Pack waterproof everything, embrace the mud, and learn the local skill of "waiting it out." The monsoon is not a gentle drizzle; it is nature’s annual account reconciliation—debt of heat paid in water, often with aggressive interest.
