Who said storytime was just for kids? Somewhere along the way, we grew up—and stopped calling it storytime. But we never stopped looking for stories. In books and movies. In conversations. In memories. In the lives of people around us. Storytime with Shikha is a place to slow down and listen. Stories that might make you laugh, wonder, remember, or feel something you haven't felt in a while. Some will be mine. Some will belong to people I meet along the way. Some may be funny, some tender, some unexpected—and some simply ordinary. Come sit for a while. It's storytime.

    The Spaces We Choose

    A highway or a city road? Sometimes, the route we choose is about more than reaching our destination. From busy roads to libraries, movie theatres, and water parks, I find myself wondering about the little commonalities that bring strangers into the same spaces. Storytime with Shikha — From love. For love.

    Word for Word

    Some stories are told so often that we know exactly what comes next. The words, the pauses, even the smiles. And yet, we enjoy hearing them again. Perhaps sometimes, it's not just the story, but the joy someone finds in telling it. Storytime with Shikha — From love. For love.

    Lost in Navigation

    A late-night pickup, a lost friend, and far too many Tim Hortons! An unexpected adventure through the streets of Montreal, with a little neuroscience along the way. No hot chocolate, but definitely a story. Storytime with Shikha — From love. For love.

    Migration

    From wondering how birds migrate across the world to experiencing migration myself, the questions have changed over the years. And somewhere along the way, I've discovered that the here and the there are both very much in me. Yet I still look up at the sky and wonder... Where? How? Wow! Storytime with Shikha — From love. For love.
