All my bags are packed and I'm ready to go... to India this time! I'll be leaving Tuesday, April 7th and arriving Thursday, April 9th. I'm planning on spending some time in Pondicherry, some time in Auroville, and a little bit of time traveling around the area. I'll be back in the States June 17th.
I found my old blog from Japan and I posted it here, without its pictures (unfortunately), and on top of the Ecuador blog - so sorry for the chronological confusion.
