New Hope

Kirti reached the heritage and eco-hotel with her parents.
As the first guests of the refurbished property, they got a grand welcome.

“The branches of the tree are inside the rooms!” Kirti’s mother exclaimed.
“Are we allowed to pluck the mangoes?” Kirti’s father inquired.

Kirti was delighted to see their excitement.
She remembered her childhood when she asked such questions.

As the new Tourism Director, she had worked overtime to implement her idea to revamp and convert old buildings into new places to stay.

Seeing the reaction of the first guests, Kirti felt satisfied and hopeful- ‘morning shows the day.’

  1. Great take. I persuaded my mother to come on holiday with me once after she had strongly resisted. She loved every minute of it and talked about it for the rest of her life! Jilly, Sugar on the Bee.

  3. When we take our parents on holiday, it is so they can watch the kids and we can get a quiet evening or two! Like the idea of restoring the old building and giving it a new life.

  9. I like the name Kirti
    I liek how you showed the excitement in adults - and how little stays at certain places can bring us alive - the tourism industry could use more posts like this - ha

  11. I love the idea of restoring without disturbing the growth around the building. Taking my parents on a vacation? No, never did, although we discussed the possibility.

  12. I want mangoes growing in my house. When I was a young thing, my dream was to live in a house in which a tree grew in the middle of it.

  13. These stone houses have a lot of history attached to them. They can become a really good heritage site. Great that someone is making these houses to great use.

  17. We took my folks away for their joint 80th and 84th , got the whole family involved, 4 generations in a massive old house in Staffordshire, they loved it and kind of thought to themselves it'll probably never happen again because out was a logistical nightmare not because they are particularly ill, so they cherish those memories.
    Good piece, liked it

  20. What a good idea for a hotel! Kirtl was wise testing the accommodation on her parents - if they approved it must be good!
