Panjim to Mumbai to Rajastan!

oh Om-beach om beach

was very relaxed and lovely! nice gig as well, we learn something after every performance…this time we learned not to work with cun*s anymore, music is a vibe based gig and no vibe = no good…but that’s enough about that :-)

nice!

then we headed to Mumbai and met with Approv who was kind enough to host us in his awesome penthouse and show us around town with his chauffeur…was lush! thank A.

when I asked Apoorv why he stops every day on his way to work to feed the birds he simply said - cause they are hungry...what a nice guy!

We then took a 16 hour sleeper bus in a little nook but we kept ourselves busy…

whats happening in Hampi

so we are here in the beautiful Hampi. Ancient empire across the river we are here relaxing…well I am. Chrissy is working full days doing Lu-Lu’s and other hair related ‘pretty stuff’. We are both delighted naturally.

On other fronts I cant really travel India without going a-bit spiritual and trying to practice a little self-help trying to be happier and shit…

India to me is still a-bit Hard, a-bit dirty, a-bit ignorant and the list goes on but also very beautiful. very affordable, very mercantile and flexible and full of wondrous and magical things….India really is full of paradox…

so all my best for now,

Arnon
