During my year-long journey through India and Nepal, I spent about 3 months in Varanasi. Though it was one of the most intense cities I've ever spent time in, I couldn't seem to make myself leave. It was (and, I'm sure, still is) so richly photogenic.
My camera and I got a lot of curious stares. This sweet girl, however, held nothing back, gifting me with both a smile and confident, unguarded gaze.
