First Post

I will be writing my diaries while in India.

This is my first visit to India.

I am excited and worried at the same time!

Why?

I will answer this question upon arrival in India

I have traveled all over Europe and the Arab world, around the USA, to Turkey and to South Korea, never have I felt before the desire to write my diaries and publish them except once when I visited Baghdad in 2005!!!

Till today, November 29, 07, I have not found

direct contacts for glorious Vandana Shiva

May the positive power of nature works its way to lead me to her

I love to contact and, if possible, to meet Shabana Azmi, but her email address bounced back with a failure notice when I replied to an email that included her address!

I look forward to meeting with old friend

Pankaj Patel (after 20 years), Shammi Kapoor and Asha Parekh

Today I called the violinist sisters, Lalitha and Nandini, who live in Channei. Last time I called them was five years ago. Luckily they

are still reachable at the same number. I had to call long distance a second time to get their email address spelled, and then found out that their address is still the same!
