My Kind of Place

AJIT MENON


Nature's palette

For designing, styling, fashion choreography, event management.where do I turn for inspiration and ideas. Of course, Nature. The sea, the mountains, the trees, the fields.can give you valuable tips on colours and patterns. So, I am always in the air! I mean flying from one picturesque location to another. The best perk of my profession.

Awe-struck in the Andamans

I went to these gorgeous islands to coordinate a show and was literally shell-shocked (you can see sparkling corals and shells all around). Why would I ever rave about beaches in Spain or elsewhere in the world? In the Andamans, you feel as if a painter is at work - the wide expanse of water is in three shades. I remember running on the stunning Kala Patthar beach like an excited kid with my friends.

Many favourites

Goa, the backwaters of Kerala, Thailand and London are some of the destinations I can never tire going to. Colourful and vibrant - that's Goa, the land of beaches while Alapuzha in Kerala is a place to be to enjoy Nature at its pristine best.

Travel.

I just returned from Pollachi (a wild-life enthusiast, he goes click, click in the forests there) and packing to leave for Tirunelveli. It's travel and more travel. Yet, I return to sweet home refreshed and recharged. That's what people, places and Nature's beauty do to you.
