Traveling Terry's Guestbook

Comment
Thanks for your comment!!

So True
Sometimes I think I see a totally different side of India when I live in a place like this for awhile. People emerge as individuals, each with a story, and I appreciate the diversity and sharing that inevitably happens.

Horse Protection
No doubt, the horses called and then protected me!

Getting to Know Auroville
I know what you mean about impressions of Auroville. It’s not really meant to be a tourist destination, and it’s difficult to get to know the place with less than a two weeks’ visit. Last January I spent most of my time getting lost on the roads and retracing my path and trying to find the cafes hidden among the trees. This time I know more about the roads so I can find places more easily. And the golf ball is rather strange. Aurovillians are free to visit in the afternoon for hours a time, but visitors can only stay for about 20 minutes initially. But well worth the extra time and effort to get inside. Hope you have time to linger next visit and get more of a positive feel for the place!

Auroville Contrasts
Hi Vicki, thanks for the comment. Yeah you never know when you’ll find a car stuck into the earth or a huge rock with a big hole carved out of it, perfect for framing portraits of people. Art is everywhere, and it’s not conventional at all. I think my phone survived, just a few slow functions now. Or maybe it’s just me. I think I’ll go for another sound bath this week, but this time I’ll bring my bicycle light! thanks for traveling with me, and your comment! T

Never done traveling
Traveling seems to be embedded in my DNA. I’ll continue as long as I can! Thanks for the comment, Joan!

Young sojourner
I was young and bright-eyed and naive way back then—and I’ve carried a lot of that enthusiasm forward in my travels. Thanks for the comment Alan!

Amazing
Yeah, you can make it really amazing if you want it!
