Headed to the land of opportunity…

Its 1:43 IST and I am sitting at the Mumbai international airport waiting for my flight to London and then to NY. Its not the most pleasant time of day… seems like these long flights and absurd timings were created to make you yearn to get to your destination even more. Thanks to whoever created the laptop and a data card I am peacefully spending my time on the net. Can’t imagine what I would have done otherwise.

Anyway coming back to my 1st trip to America… I am very excited!!! Feel like a child! One of my must dos for the year was to visit a new country and that’s obviously happening. But what’s more exciting is the idea of going to whole new continent. I am finally going beyond Asia and Europe!

I didn’t realize I was such a nervous traveler till a few days back. The idea of going so far and going alone was kind of unnerving me. At the moment I am relaxed…can feel sleep and tiredness slowly creeping into my bones… so going to stop here. One of those situations where you want write but your mind just doesn’t want to think!
