Chocolat

In the summer of 2012, Sarai took her first solo international flight at age 16. A mix of excitement and anxiety bubbled inside her as she boarded the plane, each step taking her further away from the familiar comforts of home. Looking back now, she realizes how pivotal that trip was in shaping her identity and fueling her spirit of adventure. This courageous leap into the unknown led her to visit her brother, who was living as an exchange student in a quaint little town named Chambéry in the breathtaking French Alps. When Sarai arrived, she was mesmerized by the towering mountain peaks, the charming French architecture, and the crisp Alpine air. She and her brother settled into his small studio apartment, quickly becoming their cozy sanctuary away from the world. Each morning began with a routine Sarai grew to cherish: sipping coffee from a charming mug with the word "CHOCOLAT" on it. The rich aroma of coffee filled the air, blending with fresh pastries from a nearby bakery. It created a delightful start to each day as they explored the surrounding beauty. As her visit neared its end and her brother prepared to return home, he offered Sarai the beloved "CHOCOLAT" mug. It had become a symbol of their shared experiences and the warmth of those Alpine mornings. Whenever Sarai longs for the fresh air and serene beauty of the French Alps, she finds comfort in pouring a warm cup of coffee or hot chocolate into that cherished mug. Each sip transports her back to those unforgettable days, reminding her of that brave 16-year-old girl who took a leap of faith. This set the stage for countless more adventures yet to come.
