Cornsperience in Meghalaya

Corn is the best food for monsoon,

Made made in heaven between my favourite season and favourite food, 

Standing in rain with wet hair,

Muching on some warm corn on the cob under a small shop without a care of my wet state, 

It's something I can do all throughour the year without a fail, 

I don't mind getting cold because of it nor getting my teeth blackened from it amidst talking to a person,

I don't get conscious of the other person seeing my blackened teeth because for the time being, the taste of spicy corn is in my thoughts completely dominating, 

I'm busy savouring that tangy buttery flavour and salivating for more bites between my chews, 

That is why one of my go-to destination is Meghalaya,

I want to explore the abode of clouds and its wet foggy beauty with my corn as my travelling buddy,

I want to enjoy this small joy of mine in Mawnsynram and Cherrapunjee who are known for being two of the most rainiest cities,

I will have my corn prepared at home with spices and butter with a generous squeeze of lemon,

I would also take corns from the street corn on the cob seller,

In the wet streets of these two cities I will walk and enjoy the windy air,

That will sometimes have the delicious aroma of my corn that I have brought prepared,

I'll talk to the people while traveling about what kind of food they like in monsoon,

I'll also share my corn with them so that we can eat together and know how this experience is liberating,

In return I'll also try and enjoy their favourite foods and cultural delicacies.
