one door closes and another door opens

"Oh blog, how it feels like an eternity since I last layed my eyes on you and had words with you..."

You quickly realise that access to the Internet is a commodity when your in a tiny little city 4 hours out of Delhi... so the next few posts I will have piece together as best I can as I have still been writing but just as random notes on my iPhone...

Below are a few blogs I wrote while still in London...(remember...unedited means, that I have not re-read allot of these, so pardon me for the slightly embarrassing grammar)...

LONDON
This god for 'saken' town. Love to love it, love to hate it but hate that love it so much!!
Within 2 days of being here the tube map, it's connections and change overs are back in my head and I'm walking the streets like an A-Z or as one would say "a proper Londoner innit"! It really does feel like my home away from home. Being here after 4.5 years since returning to Sydney is probably the perfect amount of time as I am less attached to the desire to stay here. I did love living here and I could easily see myself living there again. But the calmer part of me can also see that being in a fast pace city again is something I would mentally have to prepare for or even avoid if I am to find my true balance. Walking along oxford st and going out in Soho last night reminded me how intense this city can actually be. Millions of people from all over the world co-existing in one city all striving to succeed, to become something, thriving for the same energy to become financially independent, to achieve their purpose, or even find their purpose, wanting something different from their life. This is the buzz that is London. This energy is possibly what makes it one of the best cities in world. It is nice to have lived it and experienced it, but for now, its an amazing place to visit. I have wanted to move back so many times since I moved back to Sydney but it was this trip that allowed me to close this door in my mind and realise that living in London again at this stage in my life would be a novelty that would wear off very quickly.

So the new door that is to open is my travels through India...
