And she felt this need to travel, to connect with similar women who are undergoing similar experiences in similar circumstances.

And she started an Instagram account.

So that's where her journey really started.

And in these hills of Kerala, in this stunning background, she felt that she could bring this community of women together where they would not feel so judged.

She has sort of managed to bring together over 100 such women.

And she's conducted over 10 camps, not just in Kerala, across the country and also beyond in the UAE now.

They start off with this bus journey where they try to get to know each other.

And once they're in the camp, they spend the 48 hours with each other playing games, trekking up the mountains or sitting by the beach, listening to each other and playing games together, dancing together and also listening to music together.

A lot of the women who I met in this camp were actually traveling for the first time because to travel solo is again something different.

which is not a very common activity that women do in India.

So just to travel for leisure and just to travel to see things and just to be able to sing songs and dance and not feel like they have to take care of anything.

They came there as strangers and to be able to do these activities together was purely an act of joy and freedom for them.

So when they came, they were strangers, but they left with a sense of friendship and a sense of deep community.

François Piron became homeless after moving to London from France in 2014.

On his first night in the UK, he had his wallet and passport stolen and spent the next few years finding comfort in a piano that stands in St Pancras railway station.

He learnt to play there and now Francois is living in a safe home, has set up his own business and is working on his own music.

He's also become the face of a new campaign by the charity Crisis about homelessness in Britain.

Francois has been speaking to the BBC.
