In just over three weeks I will be on my way for my fourth visit to India. The anticipation and the excitement are both beginning to rise. New backpack and bits and pieces already bought. Passport in safe at agency already. I am paying for this visa to be done for me as the stress level is too much otherwise. I only have a three day window as I booked my flight with 177 days on 180 day visa. Total cost £200 so not cheap, plus they may bring in fingerprinting any day now which is another hassle, will have to wait and see.
Flying into Delhi and will probably spend a week there getting stuff done. Dentist and glasses for a start. Have to say I'm not much of a fan of Delhi. Vivid memories of scuffles in shady shops and dimly lit streets still haunt. I usually fly into Mumbai but it's a different time of year so will move up north quite quickly this time.
I know I will meet up with mates from previous trips which makes going better and better each time. It is like a travelling family of which  I am NOT the responsible adult and I like it that way. I am a reiki master and that is good enough for me. Speaking of reiki that is something I want to do so getting some sort of business card and flyer set up will be a priority.  This is the website (still under construction) of my reiki teacher and I hope to hook up and work with them again. Can't recommend Jason and Allegra highly enough. http://www.purelandreiki.com/ Oh god, work commitment in India. Please!
So now it's three more weeks of work with a super client who I enjoy working with and then 6 months of wonderful freedom. Freedom to explore new places and ideas and meet old and new friends. Woohoo! Come on 4TH April.
