Touchdown
Arrived to the dawning sun over Bangkok and an assault of already thick oppressive heat. Met some fellow kids at the baggage claim and we shared a cab to khao san rd while we debriefed India and shared mutual awe at how EMPTY and CLEAN Bangkok is. Where are the people? the animals? the traffic? the rubbish? the life? Bangkok feels oddly sterile and dull in comparison to the frenetic pace of India.

Well finally back in the big smoke Bangkok after a month of lushing-out in laos, meeting inspiring people and doing blissfully little.
iNDiAN PREPARATiONS
i stayed in Vientiene for a week while i waited for my indian visa to be processed – a story in itself. i arrived at the indian embassy feeling ultra prepared armed with my passport, two passport photos and both lao and thai currency. But of course one needs three passport photos, the fee can only be paid in us dollars – $56 (of which $16 is a “facsimile fee”), and there needs to be a photocopy of your passport to accompany the application form. Naturally, the indian embassy is on the perimeter of town where there is neither a currency exchange nor a photocopy facility. So after 4 hotly negotiated tuk-tuk rides to and from the embassy, and follow-up phone calls to wrong extensions or receptionists that don’t speak english, my visa was processed without a hitch and is now in my hot little hand. i have a ticket to fly to Kolkata in two days time!!!!
