“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” – Lao Tzu
To those whom will take the time to ‘listen in’ on the narrative of my summer 2010 travels to Bangalore, India – I am warmed by your interest. My enthusiasm for developing a chronicle of this experience has been stirred by the input of friends and family who have encouraged the idea of putting thoughts and experiences while abroad to paper (or in this case – the World Wide Web). I’m fascinated by the capacity I have to remain connected to home through this means, and would request that – time permitting – you push this dialogue forward with comments or a short e-mail.
I hope to test a number of different formats of blogging throughout the summer in search of my ‘voice’ within this medium. Please bear with what will jump between fictional and non-fictional, prose and poetry and assertive and reflective accounts of my trip – all will be inspired by my experience.
“We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.” –Jawaharial Nehru
