One mango from every cart
On having travelled through south India during the peak of the summer, I grew to realise that the Hyderabadi mangoes are the best and the cheapest. On arriving back into Hyd, it didn't take me long to have the fridge fully stocked again. I just wanted to buy one mango from every cart. I'm going to miss them a lot, and feel so glad that I was able to be here in India during the summer to take part of the mango season. It has been a truely unique experience.
I've realised that God provided the mangoes in the Indian summer to help the Indians be refreshed by their amazing flavours and to help them survive on a day to day basis.
Since then (in Kolkata) the rain has come, and eating a juicy cold mango in the cold no longer is such an appealing prospect.
How do you pack up your life in one continent to move to another? Some of you already know but it's a very difficult process! I struggled emotionally for a long time before I was able to book my tickets north to see my parents in Kolkata and then to travel west to Delhi for the North Indian bible week. Once the tickets were booked I then had a deadline to pack my bags and head up north.
