You're welcome Sevara ~ I just wanted to express my happiness for you as you soon adventure into the spiritual land of mystery ~ India - where so many great poets, authors and spiritual guides have been born or have been inspired by this vast country of ancient cultures and intrigue ~

I know India is so diverse and so many languages ~ I have heard many amazing stories through friends of their experiences in India ~

My roommate in college went to India often for she was studying health care and learned how to speak one of the Indian languages ~ She worked in small villages and taught health care and food safety and preparations to the small communities ~

More recently I worked with and became friends with a very lovely spirit of German decent with a beautiful accent ~ She had an Indian last name because her husband was born and raised in India ~ To make a long story short ...they recently moved to India to the beautiful city of Goa ~ She shared many of their plans with me of moving to India .. and told me they can live very well on very little compared to western cost of living standards ~ You probably know this city for it is famous for its beautiful beaches on the west coast of India ~ Goa has a strong Portuguese influence ~ It is visited by hundreds of thousands of international and local tourists each year ~ also known for its temples and also is rich in plant and wild life ~ I wished them all the happiness in their new life in beautiful Goa ~ A very gentle, sweet and loving couple ~

So I share these stories with you, Sevara, to express my excitement for you and my great fascination with India - for I know there is so much to see and experience ~ A land of endless discoveries ~ so diverse and so deeply connected to the spiritual realm and our glorious Universe ~ its ancient cultures speaking words of wisdom, compassion and love ~

Namaste ~ With love ~ Coralina ~
