My Childhood Days

So I am a 20-year-old girl. So during my childhood days, my dad was in the navy, so we used to live in Navy Nagar (a place where all naval people live with their family). As a naval brat, my dad always used to get transfers and all, so we just used to change places. I have been to Goa, Dehradun, Vishakapatnam, etc and in the end, he was transferred to Mumbai, and from that time I'm here landed in Mumbai " The city of dreams " as it is known to be. So there was a place where I used to go with him to swimming. Good old days!! But I couldn't ever learn as a small kid. There used to be a tube around my body and I used to just play in the water. My dad used to tell me, " push your legs in this manner, move your hands properly" and all those sorts of things. But as a small kid, I just used to love playing in the water. So, days passed by and my dad retired from the Indian Navy. Then, he got a job in a company, which was very far away from where we used to l...

Because of the unbearable heat, your skin becomes dull and dry.  So here are a few tips that you can follow while going out of your hotel room during  a vacation: Make sure you apply a good quality sunscreen with high SPF that lasts long on your skin. There are many products in the market that you can go to. Try using a sunscreen with SPF-30 or more. Apply the sunscreen gently on your exposed body parts and after that, you can normally apply your make-up and you are ready to beat the heat.
