Kaleem made our morning at Taj Mahal come alive with his simple but effective storytelling.He contextualised and made modern references in a way that was relateable to the younger members of our retinue. His pace was perfect as was his overall welcoming warm energy. The same evening he took us on a walk through the local village and exposed us to some of the laborious handicrafts so painstakingly done even today by craftspersons who sadly live marginalised lives. For our western-oriented kin, it was an eye opener and although only a superficial sort of exposure, there was enough to plant seeds for conversations and reflections with them for months to come.
