It’s now our final day in India. Despite such a short trip, it feels like we’ve been here for years – everyone is trying to come to terms with the fact we’ll have to revert back to our lives in Sydney.
From Pushkar, we drove to the nearest major
city with a train station, Ajmer and said our goodbyes to Fiona and Pravine. A
seven hour train ride, the longest card game of cheat ever played, an avoidance
of strange train food and heaving our now, very heavy suitcases – we arrived
back in Delhi.
With only one day left in Delhi, we spent
it at all of our favourite places.
With an idea of what little remained of our
suitcase’s space and weight – it was firstly off to Nehru Place to buy up on
any wanted fabrics for use back home. Then it was off to Hauz Khaz for lunch
and shopping and back to N-block marketplace for a group dinner to finish off.
Our plane leaves for Sydney tomorrow
morning and whilst I feel like my life has become accustomed with living in
India for an indefinite amount of time – it feels like it’s time to go back
home. There’s no doubt I’ll definitely miss this place. From the hyper-colour
saris, to the intricate architecture, to the smell of chapatis cooking and the
occasional city-bound cow – India is definitely one to remember
