Spreading Smiles Across The Country
Any small random acts of kindness are more appreciable than any big deed. The world goes around because of these kinder people. I really salute Chennai based Biker Radhika Rao, who traveled to all the states in India.
Radhika Rao, 26 years old freelance photographer and a bold woman, traveled solo to all 29 states and five union territories in India, making a photo documentary. She completed her eight-month-long adventurous solo ride on a motorcycle from Chennai on November 18, 2017.
She made this solo riding on her Bajaj Avenger motorcycle to collect photographs of “Smiling People”. She calls it “Peace Through Smiles”, and she mingled with people to photograph happiness. She has captured nearly 600 happy feces across the country. Maybe she’ll hold an exhibition of these photos.
“The purpose of my journey is to spread happiness, love, and peace through smiles by meeting people. And I decided to travel to all the states documenting their lives. As I end my trip here in Chennai, I believe that I did justice to what I preach”.
– Radhika Rao
“Wear Smile To Spread Smiles Across”
Radhika is certainly a role model for most Indian Women who dare to be passionate, kind and purposeful. She’s a real inspiration for all young women to make their dreams come true.
And she has a special message for all the girls – “Please don’t let others define your dreams, go ahead and do it. Nothing feels more accomplished like challenging your own fear”.
Do you believe in collecting smiles? have you taken photos with any strangers in your life?Have you ever felt happiness in doing any random acts of kindness? What’s your opinion about this bravest yet loving girl? Share some simple tips to spread smiles across …….
