Yellow fields of…..

Posted on January 31, 2016

mustard !

it really looks like the fields in the southern parts of Sweden in may but here I am in India and it’s january.

Only we don’t grow mustard…..(that becomes mustard oil, seeds and the leaves are eaten as a green vegetable usually mixed with spinach)

same same but very different

but it sure makes me long for those beautiful yellow fields in may.

Posted on January 29, 2016

Sadhu’s, Indias holy men, at a temple in sector 21 Gurgaon, India

this was actually the first time I met a “holy woman” and I learned that she is called a sadhvi and I also met the sadhu with the longest hair I have ever seen. dreadlocks as long as he himself ! wow !

(sadhus-sadhvis are solely dedicated to achieving moksa,(liberation), the fourth and final asrama (stage of life) through meditation and contemplation of Brahman)

I hope you know that you can click on each of the pictures and have a look at each one individually.

Roadside lunch anyone ?

Posted on January 27, 2016

A vegeterian roadside lunch.

Baked potato with lime and some black salt and a red carrot. The red carrots are so good! Just what I needed.

I didn’t have any white radish because my driver told me it gives you really bad breath ! Don’t think he wanted to have me in the car talking and smelling..hahaha
