Yesterday, I had the privilege of visiting Dharavi — one of the world’s largest slum communities, right here in Mumbai. Spanning roughly 2.1 to 2.39 square kilometers and home to around a million people, Dharavi is an incredible place filled with life, resilience, and warmth.
Despite the challenging living conditions, the sense of community, purpose, and positivity among the people here was deeply inspiring. Out of respect, I won’t share photos of individuals or their homes, but I wanted to share a small glimpse of this eye-opening experience.
A heartfelt thank you to for the meaningful tour, and to our wonderful guide, Rhana — a Dharavi resident herself — for sharing her time, stories, and perspective with us. Knowing that 80% of the company’s profits go back into supporting the local community is truly admirable.
This visit was profoundly humbling and left me full of gratitude and admiration for the people of Dharavi.

This morning we got up early to join the wonderful street parade to celebrate the Indian Hindu New Year's Festival. This date, falling in the Chaitra month, aligns with regional new years like Ugadi and Gudi Padwa, signifying spring, renewal, and prosperity. What a treat and well worth the early start to the day!
