Russian tour

I was awake early, 430 local time and read my book with the hopes of drifting back to sleep. Eventually the sounds of India pulled me from my bed and I sat and had tea with "Ghandi Guy". He owns the home-stay where I am staying. He is an American builder, English teacher and all round nice guy. After 2 teas with Ghandi (He calls himself Ghandi guy, I actually don't know any other name for him), my new handsome Russian friend showed me the ropes at lunch. Damon is the kind of man who emits this wonderful positive energy. The waiter where we had lunch gave him his address and insisted on this photo.







We laughed the whole way through veggie rice. After we said good-bye to our waiter we roamed the streets drinking 100% pure pineapple juices, grape juices and chai tea. Damon speaks to everyone and follows his heart for every decision he makes. He is here for another month and is a teacher training student at Santhi Yoga along with me.






We walked through carpet shops, into schools, was shown rooms at hotels all because of Damon's easy going way. I think we will be great friends.






Did I mention he was on a mission to see Santa:) His next mission is to head to Varkala Beach to see wild dolphins. I'm looking forward to the day when his heart tells him it's dolphin time.
