An all day all inclusive package at Frank Provost Spa and Salon in Juhu, Mumbai, was the divinely thoughtful gift that Husband dear decided to present to me for my birthday. I know… [...]

I got shot 8 times and lived to tell the tale. One can probably never say that in real life…. But with Paint ball all is possible!!
