DEC 19 2019
I got my flight tickets and packing done. It’s time to embark on this life-altering journey. However, as the days of the year 2019 is coming to an end, so seems to be my luck 😦

After seven excited hours of flight from Chicago to Paris, I now find myself at the terminal rushing to catch my connecting flight, which will take me to New Delhi from where I will take the next plane home. This is where I get the first blow. With almost no battery on my phone at the boarding gate, I am stopped from taking the plane to India for reasons that I do not understand. Controlling my nerves– in this semi-panic situation– I wait another nine hours and then buy new tickets to home. Lots of drama happened back home too, which involved my Indian visa and Passport being miss placed for a few days at the agency responsible for getting the visa. However, after a delayed flight caused by a snowstorm and a missed Plane in New Delhi, I found my way to the city of Trivandrum in the state of Kerala, India. At the airport, I made a friend! Turns out there’s still some charm left in the air after all.
