Shopping is Adaptive and Equally Therapeutic
Where would you go on a shopping spree? I would like to do that on the streets of Sri Lanka. This country has a lot to offer in terms of quality materials and value for money. It is vibrant and has plenty of Indian fashion imbibed in its culture. The hues and shades of Buddhism,…
