It's a completely
different experience
a different pace
You have to change your mindset about

As we drive through the city
Our own little misfit cocoon
These sights this energy it's
all so natural to everyone
around us
The energy is absolute It is absolutely foreign
It is raw and exhausting and invigorating it is transformative

it's easy to get lost
You have to cross
rivers & faint trails
You wander for hours—
Your best guess your

destination & how to
FIND YOUR WAY BACK

Everything is Alive
Here the river breathes the wind perspires the cities vibrate
Everything is alive
Any journey to India comes with its own set of rules
The more you resist the more you miss
You have to give into the mythology of this place
Let it become a part of you
Like the favorite story told and retold to you as a child
