To India with love.
Eighteen years ago, Kate and I travelled to Kerala, India for a course that changed far more than our professional lives…
One afternoon, we visited the SOS Children’s Village to model the excellence of the team running it. While we were having tea, a young girl - 9 years old, sweeping the courtyard - walked over, smiled, and said:
“Hello auntie, hello uncle.”
In that moment, Sughandy walked straight into our hearts.
We decided that day to sponsor her, support her education, and make sure she had everything she needed. Letters turned into phone calls, phone calls turned into video chats, and every year I travelled back to India to visit her.
She worked hard, qualified as a nurse, and a few years ago moved to Galway, Ireland to work as a carer. There, she met a young man who she’ll be marrying this Saturday.
This week, Kate, India, Keira and I will travel to India to give her away, the only four members of her family among 200 guests from her new husband’s side.
I’ll share our journey here, on Instagram and Facebook.
This is more than a trip. It’s the continuation of a promise we made 18 years ago.
