The Bharatland

Or India, as it's more commonly known! It's where I'm from and where I'm going in November. Cannot bloody wait!! Can't wait for Gol Gappe, Golas and pure, unadulterated fun. The fun of food, the fun of just being in a place you feel at peace in, a place where you feel connected, not just to the environment, but to the people too. Not that I'm saying I don't feel connected to certain people here, it's just the whole atmosphere is different there, the behaviour, the culture.

Scary though as I haven't actually properly lived there since 1997 so will be interesting to see how I adapt. Will miss so many things here, including being able to wear (pretty much) whatever I want, going out in the knowledge that I know where everything is and how everything works. I know some of what happens over there, but it's almost like learning a language you know sort of broken but not quite that well...adjusting to a whole new way of life! Aaaaaaaah!

Scared to death and excited - two emotions that should NEVER be felt together!
