... Nicole. We went to 3 stores before finally settling on a good value/ design of a traditional Indian women's suit (whose name I'm not super sure about- even though I thought I knew it before). Anupama was incredibly helpful because I don't have any idea what's going on when it come to clothes shopping and oh yeah, I don't understand Hindi.

We start chatting more and she asks if we're walking to ...
