We have come to one of Geeta’s parties at the extraordinary house she and Göran have built at Mukkunni.

We have all gone out onto the hill to watch the sun go down. It takes its time and while it sinks slowly into the horizon people take pictures of each other. And themselves.

Asha, the woman on the right taking a selfie, works as a dermatologist and has her own clinic. The man next to her worked for 26 years in California as a psychotherapist. Devi, the woman behind him, arrived with Asha, the dermatologist, but does not herself work in this field. Tom, the man leaning into the picture at the back, seems very shy but works as a motivational speaker and soft-skills trainer.
