Tripoto

We are all living in uncertain times. 2020 was spent largely locked in at home, with very few instances of travelling, thus making the time especially challenging for all wanderers. The end of 2020, and early 2021 was marginally better, with many venturing out and resuming travel. And while the second wave has taken over the country, there stands a glimmer of hope as vaccine distribution gets extended to those above the age of 18 years. However, many eligible people are still unsure about taking the jab.
