..and the tan does not go away!

Not that I'm being a girl and complaining about it. Infact, I'm in a way proud of it! I'm happy about it!

Because everytime I look at my arms, I'm reminded of all the trips, all the journeys I've made. I'm reminded of all the treks I've been on, the walks, the bike rides I've taken. All the long drives on which I kept my windows open and felt the wind in my hair. (And the tough time I had de-entangling my hair). I'm reminded of the sun burning my skin. I'm reminded of all the forests, the mountains, the rivers, the highways I've seen and all the moments I've spent with the people I love.

I have been quite a homebody all my life for various reasons at various different points in my life. And it's really since January this year that I've started travelling and exploring, something that I quite enjoy. Since then, I've done pretty well for myself averaging more than a trip a month. The tan is a testimony to that and I'm pretty happy that I've not let the tan on my arms lighten!

As they say, life is a book and if you've not travelled, you've read but one page.

If you want to suggest spf60, don't. I would rather stay indoors than re-apply every 2 hours.
