I can't believe it's over a year now as I prepare for my next trip to India. After so long-may be 13 years if not longer that I will get to spend Durgo puja and Diwali in Bhubaneswar with family. One never knows when will this happen next.The first two images that come to mind when I think of India are those of my parents waiting to welcome me at my childhood home and of Jagannath temple, Puri.
Apart from Papa and Mummy, I am also looking forward to meeting everyone else-Mamu, Badabapa, Badama, Rupali didi and Rabi Bhai, Roni dada, Lily apa, Mina bhai, the kids and the list goes on. Every time I am there, I fondly remember and miss my dearest grandparents, Masi and Mami(s), unforgettable landmarks like Krushna Madhupuri (home sweet home), Uma Bhawan, Stewart school, ancestral home, Puri beach, my favorite temples-all of the above complete me indeed!
It's so interesting, I love to travel the world and experience different cultures, but my visit to India completes the journey, helps me reconnect to my roots and then marks the beginning of yet another journey urging me to explore all that's out there!
