Kamala Nair, an architect, children's book illustrator, and author, believes that her dreams sprouted wings in the small coastal Indian state called Kerala. It's difficult to wipe the smile off her lips when she travels, for she finds joy in diverse cultures, people, and architecture. Outside her workstation, you can usually find her basking in earthy sunsets, savoring lustrous green pastures during her walks, or swimming alongside the fishes.
