Magu's guide to B-town: Introduction

I've been here for over two months now, so enough time for me to think I have an idea about the place and its people and definitely too short a time to be right. However, I'd like to sum up my experiences and observations and share them with you. I have some ideas for a couple of chapters, but maybe someone has a specific thing they'd like me to elaborate on. If so, please come froward :) There's still a couple of days left for me here, so even if I don't have an idea about it, I'll be able to ask around :)

Other than that - F, my CS host from Kuala Lumpur whom I stayed with in October last year, has spoiled me big time by sending over a six pack of Teh Botol - a jasmine tea drink I became addicted to while travelling in Indonesia.



As soon as I received it, I put it in a fridge to treat myself in the evening over some good movie. The evening has come - I've just gotten back from a dinner and some sheesha at a friend's restaurant and am spoiling myself some more by sipping the taste of last year's memories.. It's amazing how a simple taste can take you back in time and enable you to relive whatever reality you remember from the past. Right now I'm on Bali, on Lombok, on the beautiful Gili.. Even more so, because M is on Gili now and I' happy for her but at the same time I envy her so much, words cannot express it.
It's definitely time to find a new adventure in a beauftiful corner of this planet.

Am zipping through channels right now and have just seen Denzel Washington speak hindi. Made my night!

Other than that I need to rest after the weekend, can't wait for the next weekend - a crazy high profile wedding I'll be hostessing at, already thinking how strange it'll be to leave Bombay and feeling nostalgic because/thanks to Teh Botol..
