The Hindu Festival of Colours, Holi absolutely blows my mind. It's like kaleidoscopic heaven! The event has deep historical roots in Hindu mythology, and is meant to represent the triumph of good over evil. (Side note: My friend Clint is working on bringing some of these fables to life.)

Like many large gatherings, I know the festival can be a dangerous place for women sometimes, so please be careful if you plan to attend solo.

The Boston Globe recently posted some fantastic images from this year's celebration. Pure happiness!
