MORE BODYTALK ON THE BEACH

DOING BODYTALK ON THE SOUTH GOA BEACHES!

I have started doing bodytalk on the tourist and loca;s alike. it is amazingly successful. people are coming to me for sessions and i am not getting as much swimming in, and i love it. i had a massage therapist come to me because he has had a problem for 2 years. and now he wants he to share his clinic! this is just so amazing.

on the other side of it, i have become friends with a local man and yesterday we spent the day out on his bike expolring places that tourist rarely see and drinking wonerful chai and eating amazing food.

boy, i am gonna be hard pressed to come home!

i am sorry that i am such a lazy blogger and all my pics are messed up. i am just having too much fun to sit here and fix them!

PALOLEM BEACH GOA

I an staying in a hut off the beach here. it is lovely, they have many plants in containers, i think because when the monsoon comes it would wash them away. i am paying 500 rupees a day to stay there, not a bad price, i have no idea how long i will stay, it is so easy here. ahhh.

Hello, I am so sad that I cannot put new pics on yet as I am having challenges with my laptop.

I am currently on a beach I southern goa. It is amazing, someday I will show you some photos and give more stories. This part of goa isn't like India at all. It is quiet and clean and more like

Latin America with Hindi speaking people and cows.....

SOME MORE PHOTOS OF CHENNAI

SERIOUS JET LAG!

IT IS FOUR IN THE MORNING HERE, BUT THREE IN THE AFTERNOON AT HOME AND I AM WIDE AWAKE! SOON, I WILL GET INTO THE GROOVE BUT IT SURE IS TOUGH.
YESTERDAY MY SAME DRIVER SHOWED UP ATMY HOTEL IN THE MORNING, I REALLY LIKE HIM ( I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PRETTY LUCKY WITH AUTORICKSHAW DRIVERS). SO WE EXPLORED SOME MORE OF THE CITY. I TOLD HIM THAT I NEEDED AN ALERATION DONE TO MY IPAD2 CASE AND SO I GOT TO GO WHERE TOURISTS DONT USUSALLY GO. WE WENT TO THE AUTORICKSHAW 'HOSPITAL', WHICH IS BLOCKS AND BLOCKS OF TINY SHOPS AND AUTOS IN ALL STATES. WE WENT TO 2 DIFFERENT PPL THERE AND ONE OF THEN PUT A HOLE IN THE CASE, WHERE I WANTED IT (IT IS SO THE CAMERA CAN BE USED WITHOUT ME HAVING TO TAKE IT OUT OF THE CASE) THEN WE WENT TO A SHOE MAKER AND IT TOOK US QUITE A WHILE TO FIND THE RIGHT SIZED RING TO FIT IN THERE. MEAN WHILE AT ALL OF THESE PLACES, CROWDS OF MEN WOULD HOVER, WONDERING WHY THIS WHITE WOMAN IS HERE AND WHAT IS GOING ON. IT CAN BE PRETTY FREAKY, IF YOU LET IT, BUT I DIDNT. NONE OF THEM SPOKE ENGLISH BUT MY DRIVER DOES AND SO I SHOWED THE CROWD WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND THEY LOVED HAVING THEIR PICTURES TAKEN. IT WAS PRETTY COOL.

i went for a 3 hour ride in an autorickshaw, i had a wonderful driver. great fun!

THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT I FORGOT ABOUT INDIA AND SOME THINGS THAT I AMJUST LEARNING. I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN MY PLANE HAD JUST TOUCHED DOWN IN INDIA, BEFORE THE BRAKES WERE DONE SQUEELING AND JOSTLING US AROUND, ABOUT 30 MEN HAD ALREADY STOOD UP AND WERE GETTING THEIR OVERHEAD LUGGAGE! THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT WAS TELLING THEM TO SIT DOWN AND THEY WERENT LISTENING, AT ALL. I WAS AMAZED AND THEN I REMEMBERED THIS HAPPENING WHENI WAS HERE BEFORE. THAT IS HOW DRIVING IS DONE TOO, SO I GUESS TO THEM IT IS NORMAL. ALL LINES ARE PUSHED LIKE THAT,IT IS HARD TO GET USED TO BUT I GUESS TO THEM THEY ALL FEEL THAT THEY WILL MISS OUT IF THEY DONT SHOVE.

INDIA

MY FLIGHT TO BAHRAIN WAS OKAY, I WAS VERY WORN OUT BY THE TIME I GOT THERE, THE AIRLINE GAVE ME A FREE ROOM IN A NICE HOTEL FOR THE DAY. I PLANNED TO HAVE A NAP AND HAVE LUNCH AND GO FOR A WALK. I HAD THE NAP AND MISSED LUNCH! NOT TOO MUCH TO SEE THERE AS IT IS BUILT FOR THE BUSINESSMAN. VERY ARABIA, PRETTY COOL IN THAT BUT IT DIDNT SEEM LIKE REAL PEOPLE WHERE ANYWHERE, THERE MUST BE ANOTHER PART OF THE ISLAND THAT I MISSED.

MY FLIGHT TO INDIA WAS VERY FULL AND I SAT BESIDE A MAN WHO STARED AT ME ALOT...WHATEVER.

IT WAS TIME TO GET USED TO IT. I WAS THE ONLY WHITE PERSON ON THE FULL PLANE.

INDIA AGAIN

MY FLIGHT FROM VANCOUVER TO LONDON(WHERE I HAVE NEVER BEEN BEFORE) WAS NICE, I HAD MT 2 SEATS SO IWAS ABLE TO SLEEP SOME. AT HEATHROW I BOUGHT A SUBWAY TICKET FOR THE 'TUBE' AND WENT TO BUCKINGHAM PALACE. THE QUEEN WAS NOT RECIEVING VISISTORS SO I STROLLED AROUND FOR A FEW HOURS IN THE FREEZING SUNSHINE.
