Indian dads are awesome! They may always berate for not being as good as Sharma Ji’s son and nag you for life for a favor they did years ago (like raising you), but they are the one who took you on exciting summer vacations every year and got you bit by wanderlust in the first place.
Nostalgia hitting in 3…2…1
What is funnier when you look back at those memories is the avatar every Indian dad ever donned on these vacations. There were some hilarious traits of a typical Indian dad that he put on display every time your family went on a vacation. From wearing a fanny pack to constantly calculating expenses, you can spot an Indian dad on vacation from miles away. No matter how embarrassing or irritating those were that you wanted to change your family then, but now those same things are cherished memories of your childhood.
This Father’s Day, let’s reflect on those memories and thank the sweetest man in the world who introduced to travel and sponsored all your college trips.
