KARNATAKA GIRLS photographed by Sara Ghazi-Tabatabai
INDIA HAS 1,393 BILLION INHABITANTS. WE HAVE BENGAL-TIGERS AND OUR ELEPHANTS HAVE TINY EARS. EVERY DAY IT’S TEA TIME. EVEN THE BRITS COULDN’T HAVE SPOILED THAT FOR US. EUROPE LIES BEYOND THE HORIZON. THE PEOPLE THERE LOVE OUR BOLLYWOOD MOVIES AND EAT MANY COWS EVERY DAY. WE WORSHIP OUR HOLY COWS. GOA HAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACHES IN THE WORLD. WE ARE KARNATAKA GIRLS. EVERY DAY WE GO TO THE BEACH. WE SELL SOUVENIRS TO THE TOURISTS AND OFFER THEM BEAUTY TREATMENT. FOR A FEW HOURS WE TRIED TO ESCAPE. WE PUT ON FANCY SUNGLASSES AND DO WHAT INTERNATIONAL TOPMODELS DO.
