Waiting for Mango Season

About this ebook
Ellie was stranded in India as the world locked down.
After rescuing a rusty Royal Enfield, she embarked upon a thrilling adventure across the mighty Himalayas, conquering some of the world's most dangerous roads.
Prepare to close your eyes and smell the Samosas, as Ellie paints her experience of India from the streetside chai wallahs to the ghats of the Ganges. She discovers many of India's secrets, in a land which transforms every few hundred kilometers. Ellie then learns to meet herself, reflected in India's honest mirror. Her sensory depiction of India from bustling cities to barren deserts is a palpable journey through a colourful and diverse country. A love letter to the place that became her home.
