Daramsalla

Daramsalla is all green, mountains, tibetien & rain....lots of raining

Daramsalla is a code name - you don't actualy get to daramsala, you just passing through it but its the bigest city in the area.

The main reason everyone gets to the area is for the Tibetians that sits around here. 

The main town called Mclaud, which is where the Tibetian Dalai Lama sits and their shadow government.

It beutiful, its mountains, where you can treck to the top of the mountain or just go for a walk in the woods. I know many of you are used to this kind of view, in any case it is totaly diferent...

Almost a month past by, mainly in Daramssala area, and thoughts of were to go and what we want to do in the comming months arise.

Since we decided to go to the trip only less than couple of months before we started, we were busy in getting things done (renting the house, vacination, visa etc...) and didnt realy discussed what we want and how the trip will be. 

Well its time to start. 

S has this romantic vision of traveling, meeting the locals, leave free...like 20 years ago...

Well we discovered that the kids would take time to get used and eat the local food, they want similar kids company, and above all they still want to eat every day, they still stain the clothes so someone still need to take care of laundry (thanks god that all outsourcing is very cheap here...etc)

I on the other hand want just to sit by the sea in Goa, listen to the waves, surf a little and think of new products to make and market...while the kids are going to the local international school, learn some english, meet and see other ways of living other than parents that goes every morning to the office and comes back in the evening..

2 more weeks to go and we are heading to I N D I A

It all started to roll 12 years ago, when we have set up the company and started to market the Sack'n Seat.

I stated to S ( S = Shira, my better half) : 3 years and we can travel the world, while we would ongoing manage our business from the web...

Well it took a little longer, but finally we are on the way.

It wasn't easy to decide, we have talked about it alot alongthe years, we have now 3 kids, its expensive...how will we manage ?

I recieved many signs to go ahead and do it...

Once i read to my doughter, Dr. Seuss book  "OH, The Places you'll Go!!!  (very recomended by the way) , and in the middle of the book there is this page that describes all the people that are waiting, wating and waiting, waiting for somethingto happen in their lives.

Well i do not know about you guys, but we are family, both of us working, and working, runing around our tails, living the "cliche" of wife, 3 kids, nice house...but not much time to breath, be with our kids, be with our family...surviving

I also got this post on facebook, a qoute of Paulo coelho

But bottom line, we are doing it because we want to !
We created to ourselves the system that will alow us to do it and will provide us along the way

so many things to finish before we of for our journey...
