discover more meaningful adventures

The man who serves chai

This photo belongs to a collection I named 'The people who inspire me'. When I first started this trip around India, I wanted to go all around the country helping people in need. Very soon I noticed they helped me by showing me another perspective of life. I found tons of people on the road, way happier than me, that they just found solutions to any problem on their way, from a job to the meaning of life. This man serves chai. Sometimes for others, sometimes for himself. He is there at any time of the day, always calmly waiting to serve the next chai. Enjoy the present.

I am Anna from Germany. I left my privileged life in Berlin to spend 500 days in India, as a volunteer teacher for underprivileged children. Off the tourist track, was a trip of deep discoveries, both of their culture and of myself. I've volunteered in 6 schools on my route from Kochi to Darjeeling. I keep fundraising for them to build a library in each one of them where children and the rest of the community can access to literature, information, and inspiration. Thank you very much for your support!
