She was wearing a man’s long sleeve shirt over her saree, and balanced herself on a moving lorry by holding onto the rails. But her face didn’t show any hardship.

Almost all South Indian temples would have flower and garland shops outside as people always buy them for prayers.

Balinese temple architecture is unique and I love how the gates are shaped. The temple was busy as it’s popular but I managed to see this woman alone, offering prayers.
