Begin

A house that designs a feeling into a journey, and a journey into retellings.

You choose the days. Narada writes what they become.

Crafting anticipation,
wonder and retellings

  1. I · Before

    Anticipation

    Long before the first morning, the journey has already begun. First you are heard. Then a story arrives ahead of you, and the waiting becomes its opening chapter.

    The Edition

    Your journey, told as a story before it happens. One edition. Yours.

  2. II · During

    Wonder

    Then the days themselves, held so lightly that you forget anyone is holding them. Nothing stands between you and where you are, and every morning brings its meaning.

    The unannounced

    Somewhere in the days, something happens that was never on any page.

  3. III · After

    Retellings

    The journey does not end at the door. It returns, weeks and a year later, so the story you carry back is worth the restlessness that sent you out.

    A year to the day

    When the year comes round, a single line arrives from where you stood. Nothing is asked of you.

Every journey is written from your life, and none is written twice.

How it is done

No two people ever
see the same place.

Five places in the first year.

If your story leads somewhere else, the house will say so in the first conversation. A place is added only when it can be done properly.

  • Svalbard

    Svalbard

    For the summer when the day does not end and, after a while, you stop waiting for it to.

    Read about Svalbard
  • Kenya

    Kenya

    For an hour on the plain, sitting still, while something walks past that does not know you are there.

    Read about Kenya
  • Croatia

    Croatia

    For the islands after the last ferry has left, when the stone gives back the heat of the day and nobody is going anywhere.

The first word is yours.

On the other side waits Ansh Lakhanpaul, in no hurry, with every reason to listen. Say as much or as little as you like.
