A Premise

I have been in San Diego for just over a month now and love it already. I stepped out of the airport and belonged. Yes, just like that. There are very few cities in the world that has made me its own in an instant. I do not know if this is where I will spread roots but for now; San Diego is where all my mails will be directed to.


Being able to explore depends massively on being mobile in this country. I do not drive, a shortcoming I am determined to overcome in the coming month. It has been ages since I got on a bike so that form of transport is ruled out [not for long again :0)]. Public transport is not a common sight in all cities so unless I was in New York, buses are as rare as finding ostriches on streets. But none of this matters in San Diego. I can walk around to my heart's content and smell the roses at leisure. Buses can take you around; hordes of college students notwithstanding. People are friendly, I have never received a frown from anyone so far and cafes welcoming.


Third season, episode something of Ugly Betty still waffling out but if not anything else, I have realized that while watching is when thoughts flow.

A First Post

Why is starting something such an uphill task? I sit in front of my MacBook Air, third season episode something of Ugly Betty wafting away on the television for forever and I cannot conjure up a line! 

Putting up Lord Ganesha's picture as a good omen passed my mind (taking his blessings before starting anything new is supposed to help you be super successful at the task) but I then decided; writing about the first post itself was not such a bad idea.

While I go away and think of what I really want to do with this blog and why I really started it; hope this keeps you sufficiently interested to bring you back in some time.
