and you see the light colors my mother always wants white but in India it's very very difficult to maintain with the dust and the dirt so I'm a person who prefers lighter colors I'm not a flashy red or a flashy blue because I believe that such textures on the wall send a message of peace around the house it sends a very peaceful environment within this area so that's another part of the house where we spend a lot of time [Music] [Applause] this place in the house was not there when I was young write down and amici cannot have to cement practice you can activate Colorado wish to play
