The fact that the cobra’s head was not 20 cm from my bare calf, and flicking it’s tongue at me, and I had nowhere to go to move out of the way was not what even caught my attention. What did was that I was there, amongst it all, and it felt perfectly normal: no surprises, no big deal… Just India.
And so it is, India. Undoubtedly we see more cell phones, more cars and no less people than we did five years ago. “Chaos reigns” still holds very true.
Today Paul and Jonathan arrived, the laughter has commenced. Unfortunately I am bed ridden with a throat infection and fever due to not being used to high pollution levels. My lungs miss clean mountain air and are in protest of their new environment. Tomorrow we are all off to a new and less populated area. But first… CNN Election coverage!
