Ajudha Rao has one dream.
Not a husband. Not a promotion. Not the life everyone around her seems to be rushing toward.
She wants Switzerland. The Alps. The snow. The silence. Not for a holiday - forever.
At 27, while her family circulates her biodata and her colleagues celebrate promotions, Ajudha has been secretly saving for three years, collecting travel magazines since she was fourteen, and waiting for the right moment.
Then she realizes - there is no right moment. There's only now.
So she books a one way ticket. Tells no one until it's too late to stop her. Packs one suitcase.
And goes.
This is not a love story.
This is the story of a girl who fell in love with a place - and refused to leave.
