On the topic of memories and departures
Back to London.
I have written and rewritten this silly entry almost five times, nothing I want to say is coming out easily in words, but I must before the last six months fade away as I touch down into another reality and I am consumed (by our mad western ways) once again, hopefully I will not forget the lessons I have learned on this ramble.. The people I have met, the growth that has occured. The question of why I ended up in these parts and colided with others on the same path.
Oh indeed time to ponder these things out.
The epic stiuatons, adventures and cultivation of new ideas,
see random list of memories:::
Rani Ghat trek in Tansen
Foraging with the local women in Palpa
Koras in Tibet
Crossing the Himalaya
Ram daiis place in Kathmandu
smoky Yak chip teahouses in Tibet
seeing the Ganga cystal blue in Rishekesh
Train rides in Inida
The backalleys of Varanasi
The ardh Mela (YAY ninga adam and drunken nurse!)
Sunsets on the volcanic mountains in gorkana
learning to drive a motorbike
meeting giant Kiwis
See little poem about mumbai::
Colonial Decay
in gothic trainstations
the Massive cathedrals and Mosques
share the skyline
bright saris
counteract
the grime
choking and congested in the roundabouts
8 deep
uncannily like london
Highrises next to corrugated iron shacks
The masses
co- existing
in this chaotic harmony
Thank you India, Nepal and Tibet….. Bye bye for now

Glad to see that you have had some good times. Welcome “home”, but I guess wherever you go, there you are.
Namaste,
