Two weeks ago I made the decision to go to India for four months. As someone who has lived in the same town for her entire life, the prospect of this trip is terrifying and exciting all at once. I've always been a person who has thought long and hard on "the big decisions." I've often analyzed so much that most of my ideas have come to nothing. I'm always waiting for a signal that says this is the path I'm supposed to take. This time, I saw an amazing opportunity that was in my grasp and decided it was time to make a choice. I'm still surprised by my decision- or really by the fact that I made one! I quickly bought my plane ticket so as to prevent myself from changing my mind like I often do. So here I am, applying for my visa and flipping through beginner Hindi books, wondering if I've lost my mind. But hey, when you get down to it, it's only four months right?
This will be my blog. The Hindi word yaatra means "journey." I thought it was a fitting title. :)
I'm honored by all of you who value me and my journey enough to take the time to read this.
Love,
Me.
