So summers are back again in India. By now all our favorite jackets and sweaters are back to our closet and we have started sporting our beloved half sleeve t-shirt and trousers. But summers is not just about the changes in clothing, it is also about lazy afternoons, activities such as swimming and river rafting and drinks such as chilled beer. Below we list down five reasons why we absolutely love Indian summers

Mangoes

Ask any fruit lover and they will definitely swear by their love of mango. Yes, summers is the season for these juicy fruits. How delightful it is to have a mango or two after lunch and dinner everyday.

Summer Vacations

Summers were more merrier when we all were in school. We would eagerly wait for the last day before the summer vacations started. And once it started, we would read comics on a typical lazy afternoons. Total nostalgia.

Morning walks

Since in winters we absolutely  hate leaving our blankets early in the morning, during summer it is just the opposite. With early sunrise and pleasant weather, we can again incorporate morning walks into our schedule.

Sleeping on the terrace

How wonderful it is to sleep under the sky full of stars. Total bliss! Barring the mosquitoes that will plague you. If you can get a good mosquito net though, this will indeed be heaven.
