At Ravindra Natya Mandir, Mumbai.
Initiated 4 step long registration process and started interacting with the seeds of Future India, fellow Yatris, who all gathered from all around India. Everyone including me was like 200% excited about the Yatra. Met loads of interesting people about whom I will write in future posts as I interact more with them.
Met with the following people from Tamilnadu
Though I couldn't understand things word by word, the emotions, the Vision are all conveyed through the Heat of the Environment.
Had a excellent start today. Very curiously looking forward to the next life turning 14 days.

I am a super skeptic by DNA. So though I am excited on one side, I also remember how Shell does Responsible, Sustainable Oil drilling in Arctic. So taking these words with just a Grain of salt.
