Ready to go...

This week has been particulary weird...

I finally got my surgery in my hemorroids (kind of not sweet comment to make in my blog isn't?) However the wounds are still fresh and tomorrow morning I am leaving for my three months trip to Africa, how cool is that?

I think that this new wound is just a reminder of the need of getting hurt to be healed. I will keep that in mind during my African Experience.

I don't know how many wounds I will get in my trip, what I am sure of is that many wounds will be healed by the power of this continent.

Today I am in a rush, preparing last minute details, running inside my head trying to find a place of calm and sit there, meditating, but the environment calls me and tells me: move, move, move, faster... faster...

Today I feel amazed, my light (Luz) called yesterday, like sensing I was needing a friend. My soulmate from freedom was there in the MSN, and we shared magic... Today I feel the whole universe is enabling me to get ready for the journey... And I smile :)

I do not want to find answers today... I just need questions, loads of them... I will not strive to answer them, I know my path will answers them in Africa when the moment comes.

So, see you soon here, where my stories will be public, where the shame is no longer a real stuff, and where I can, after all, share what I feel with people that I cannot see...

Images of India...

Many friends have been asking me for pictures of my adventure in India...

I decided to upload a couple of them, here you can see me enjoying the 'incredible' India...

See you here soon before my 'intense' trip to the most powerful of all continents: AFRICA!!!

Here I am, in front of the 'incredible' Taj Majal...

The best taxis in the world!!!

Images speak by themselves, isn't?

The beginning of my on-line XP...

Today is my last day in India....

At midnight I will be travelling back to Rotterdam and I do not know exactly how I feel.

I have a deep mix of emotions, a twister of experiences in my brain and in my heart. It is like a melting soul that doesn't find a place inside my body.

How is India? - Come and discover it, I am sure it will not have the same effect on you that it has on me. India is not about what it is outside, it is not about the buildings and the history, neither about the people and the contrasts. India is all about what produces in you when you experience it, I think that is why is so 'incredible'.

It is not about the taste of its food and the pleasure of its relaxed hours. Neither the speed and desperation of the drivers and the animals on the streets. It is not about the rich and the poor.

For me India was more about the combination of all in the same geography at the same moment. The innocense of two dates in McDonalds, the power of drums in the Pink City, the eyes of people when they look at you, the way you look at yourself after those eyes.

India is definitely a good beginning for my blog, a good preparation for my trip to Africa, an excellent relief for my doubts and a blender for my feelings.

Hope to find more of this near by...

Hope to touch and be touched.

Hope to love more and be loved.

Hope to carry India with me wherever I go...

Hopes...

That is India for me...
So, How is India? It feels like hopes, like unique and endless hope.

PS: Thanks to the lights on the way (you know who you are... we had this kind of conversations in India, you feed my desire for adventure and meaning, I hope you hopes)
