SO we booked our tickets to india . . . this is actually happening!!!

I am in awe. I have been imagining going to India since I was little. The dreams of Nepal and India will actually become reality.

After tackling law school finals, the bar exam, and selling or giving away everything but a car load of our possessions, we will embark on a journey. I know the journey will be sensory, and hopefully a little bit spiritual, too. I plan on keeping a log of our travels here.
