a
new
chapter
in
an
adopted
country
that
I’m
slowly
coming
to
enjoy
and
appreciate…
WORK!!!!
That
keeps
me
sane
and
hungry
and
motivated….
‘Family,
without
whom
nothing
else
would
matter…
friends,
who
make
my
world
go
round…
travels
and
events
that
add
spice
and
new
adventures
to
life…
and
finally,
HOME…the
people
you
hold
the
closest
and
tightest…
With
the
medical
roller
coaster
and
hospital
carousel
we’ve
been
on
this
year,
I’m
most
grateful

have
my
parents
with
me

of

Packed
up

I’m

Sanghi
says,
‘2024
has
been
transformational.
Dreams
came
true.
The
kind
that
I
could
never
have
even
imagined.
‘Challenges
were
overcome.
Love
and
joy
kept
it
all
going.
And
I
came
closer
to
knowing
myself
a
little
bit
better.
To
understanding
that
resting
up
is
as
crucial
as
pushing
yourself
tirelessly.
‘To
each
person
who’s
has
contributed
significantly
to
it’s
different
moments
—
thank
you.

off

with
my

Peace
continues
to
be
found

wholesome
moments.’

‘As
this
year
comes
to
an
end
I
was
thinking
about
how
we
bought
in
the
new
year
in
Peru,
hiked
the
Inca
trail
&
visited
places
I’d
never
been
before.
I
also
made
a
promise
to
myself
that
this
will
be
an
action
packed
year
and
it
definitely
was!
‘I
got
back
on
set
&
shot
a
film
after
so
long!
Here
is
a
sneak
peek
of
the
first
five
months
of
2024!
From
Peru
to
Los
Angeles
to
Mumbai
to
Punjab

‘2024
came
laced
with
a
super
important
life
lesson
called
‘self-care’.
So
2025
will
see
me
drink
lots
of
water
and
take
my
vitamins
on
time!
Here’s
to
a
hopefully
healthy
new
year!’
