Back from the weekend in Witney, just west of Oxford, where I had a brilliant time at Nitin's and Sarah's. A big thank you for organising it all and being such brilliant hosts! The next 'sesh' is eagerly awaited.... See you all soon.
All set to leave after some late night packing. My travel pack's still reassuringly light despite the kettle!
Next post hopefully from Vellore, where I'm meant to start work as from Wednesday. Farewell to you all for now.S

Day -4. This trip of a lifetime which was so eagerly awaited is finally becoming a reality, though the reality is I honestly have no idea how unreal it will be. What seemed a faraway idea a few months ago, now stares me blankly in the face, challengingly. To leave one's confortable cocoon for a whole new world seems the right thing to do, but then seeds of doubt sprout in between even the toughest fibres of determination. Yet the preparations, if they can called as such, are made, and the luggage in the corner of my room stares out at me with trepidation and itchy feet. I have to go. I want to go. I will be going. S
