My only problem, well not a problem per se, is they take loans to travel. I would suggest them use the time to repay loans to save instead and travel loan free. Wish them a happy life and adventures ahead. They have taught me something today.
Mahindra¡¯s tweet is accompanied by a video which was originally shared by travel blogger Drew Binsky. The video shows how happy the couple is. The couple runs a tea shop called Sree Balaji in Kochi which they had started to fulfil their dream to travel the world. With the help of money earned through tea stall along with loans from the bank, the couple has travelled over 20 countries.
