Home Sweet Kailash
And back to the Kailash I go. This whole trip happened pretty spur of the moment, actually. I found out I needed to go back to Chennai for business and Piya had never seen Pondicherry. It seemed like the logical thing to take Raj up on his offer to show us around town and stay at the most beautiful hotel I've found in India. A stroke of luck too, because it was an opportunity to get to know new friends. Piya fell in love with the place too and even got a few articles out of the trip, I think. I got the couple of connection-free precious relaxation days I've been needing after the non-stop business hours of being abroad! Raj had us over for dinner one night at his airy house in the town, and Dara saw us off in the early morning with a pot of coffee and warm croissants. It was like being home.
