'People actually stop working': Indian woman shares the European habit she wishes India had

An Indian expat in Germany, Himani Sharma, shares a profound cultural shift: Europe's ability to truly switch off after work.

Sharma highlights how this fosters deeper connections and present moments, a lesson she plans to carry forward to her next destination.
