Our Journey

Rewind 5 months.... Back in February

Stunningly, lot did not seem too favorable about our trip to go back home in winter. No electricity, no water… strikes… and what not….Regardless of what everyone said, I decided to withhold my judgment, before I actually experienced myself. Both Pras and I were extremely excited to go home. Our mission was successful! Pras had gotten into a B school; I had just finished my B school. It was THE perfect timing. On the way home, we were going to make a brief stopover in Tokyo to visit my parents and little brother.

The hardest part for us was to get a tenant who was going to sublet our apartment. Pack and sell the furniture’s. After bidding farewell to all my colleagues at Merrill, I left the job from February. I was packing and selling…… At first, it seemed exciting but soon… it started getting stressful.

As distressing it sounds, somehow or other, we both did manage to get ready to leave on March 7th.

So that is how our 5 month Journey began!!!!
