With a map and a compass in hand...

I'm embarking on a long trip tomorrow. I admit I am quite lucky to be able to experience the cultural and geographic landscape of North India so intimately. Many things I wish for in this journey, safety and knowledge being the two most important. I hope to learn as much as I can from the masters who I will be accompanying. And in all this frenetic travel, maybe I'll emerge a wiser and much happier person than I was when I first went in.
