Today we are interviewing my friend Kelly’s first chaotic A.F. trip to India and how she accidentally met the royal family of Jaipur.

We talk:

Growing up in a literally 10-road village in England village and what life in London is like
The reverse culture shock of coming home after long-term travel — when people don’t even know the countries you’ve been to
Landing in New Delhi straight from Thailandand immediately questioning all life choices
Seeing the Taj Mahal at sunrise
The darker side of India travel — confronting poverty up close, cultural confusion, and witnessing things you can’t unsee
Accidentally having dinner with the actual Prince of Jaipur while she was actively battling food poisoning
The reality of traveling while injured, hospital visits abroad, and surviving Delhi belly with dignity (or not)
