Our visit to Lourdes was a deeply moving experience. Surrounded by serene mountains, we felt an overwhelming sense of peace as we visited the Grotto, where the Virgin Mary appeared to 14-year-old Bernadette Soubirous. Lighting candles there was a beautiful and blessed moment that I will always treasure.

Traveling to Paris next, I was enchanted by the energy of the city, so vibrant, romantic and full of life. We explored the Eiffel Tower and the Notre Dame Cathedral. The cathedral with its stunning architecture and stained glass windows was a serene place. I could see the devotion in every detail of its design.

An extraordinary moment occurred just a short walk from our hotel when we discovered a takeaway place called ‘Baba,’ here we went in and Ravi immediately noticed Baba’s image. Later while at another Indian restaurant, we again saw Baba’s picture, as if He was silently assuring us of His presence, guiding and blessing us throughout our travels.

I am deeply grateful to Ravi for thoughtfully arranging such a meaningful and unforgettable journey to Lourdes and Paris.
