From Making dreams come true in Mumbai, India on Oct 10 '06

Surreal experience. I did not sleep a second in the night preceeding my departure from Geneva. Not because I was nervous but rather because I was not well organised. To my horror I realised around midnight that I have a way too many things with me. I spent hours in repacking my backpack as well as preparing papers and other travel documentation accordingly. Around 3 am I remember that I had forgotten to inform my colleagues about certain important work related matters that they should take care during my 2 month long vacation. So I ended up spending two early hours in 'cleaning' my professional plate before rushing to airport and catching a plane to Zurich and eventually to Mumbai. The fact that I had not slept in the previous night completely mixed up my biological clock and I am still adjusting to current realities.
In Mumbai I was greeted by a tropical heat of +32C with extreme humidity. Thankfully my good friend Henry had arranged an airport pick up and finally I ended to his place in the southern seaside of Mumbai.
