We made it! We finally arrived in our last destination on this trip through India. To be honest, the 2 days following the night in hospital, all, Nina wanted to do is: leave India the fastest possible and fly back home. This has happened the first time ever. Normally, time is only flying by when we are travelling and we are always very sad when it is time to return. Nina had finally decided to con... Read Full Entry

Hola mundo! - We are Nina and Markus. We are from Lake Thun/Switzerland and we are outdoor junkies. Whenever possible we spend our time travelling, climbing, ice-climbing, trekking or snowboarding/skiing. However, our life has turned completely when we met our spiritual master Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda in the year 2013. In the meantime we try to travel to places where he is (and gives blessings to people) as often as possible. From travelling in the outside because we were searching for something, we are now travelling for meeting him, enjoying his presence and travelling "inside". It ... full info

All's well that ends well!
How fantastic that you had a wonderful ending to your time in India! I've heard that you've not really traveled unless you've traveled in India. The fact that you survived hospitalization and the annoyances of India proves that you are real travelers. And how wise to realize what you need for your next journey there. Glad you're home in your peaceful haven now. You survived!

the true traveller
Yes, we have heard the same. We have to admit that we were very glad to have experienced some tough times while travelling (i.e. in Malawi) before we came to India. But anyway, India is so different to everything else and is so demanding, one simply cannot prepare. It is like nothing else in the world. If this makes a true traveller - I do not know. But we have to admit we are longing for an easy beach time on a south asian beach or a wonderful lonely hike in Patagonia ;-).

Glad to hear you arrived home safely
I have read your last three blog entries, and I'm sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with illness and the hospital. Glad you are home safely. Your words on being ready for India before you begin are so true - I've been to India twice now, and each time ended with quite severe illness, along with the frustrations of India. However, there is still something amazing about the country, which still draws me back - some deep sense of spirituality combined with teeming experiences of humanity. If you're anything like me, you'll be wanting to go back for more within a few months... Glad that you're both safe and well back home though. Thanks for writing and posting :)

true
yes, it is true. It is kind of a love-hat-relationship we have with India. We will surely go back one day, maybe even this year because of spiritual reasons (our spiritual master is about to open an ashram there). If you are interested in some spiritual experiences and you don not want to travel to India, you can also check out www.bhaktimarga.org, the website of our spiritual master. Happy travels without illness ;-)!

Love hate relationships
Sometimes traveling teaches us that we love to have new experiences but we really do love home. The balance is a great thing. Health problems always taint our experience. Glad you are safe and happy.
