I’ll take my first overnight train in India tonight. I’m taking an eight and a half train ride to Ahmedabad, the capital of Gujart. Again I step off the tourist treadmill as this destination is not on the usual path. I want to break up my train rides from Mumbai. After two days, I’ll take a bus ride to Udaipur.
I’ve had a great time here with Sonalee, Ruby and Sujay. Being with family always grounds me. It allows me to stand back from my usual fast pace and enjoy the simple things.
