Quick report that i am safe in Varanass,India. I have been blessed with encountering very kind helpful souls that are making me feel more at ease in a country that can have one on sensory overload. So amazing here-despite the horrible pollution, traffic, poverty and general craziness and disorder. Despite all my apprehensions (and those of others) traveling alone is proving to be such a gift. It leaves you more vulnerable but also that much more open to the reward of the journey.
