We're off and away...

So after much thought, planning and dreaming we are off. The first time we are going to India as a family. All of us having different emotions about India.

• Joe is excited about the unknown and about the opportunities to see a new land. Also happy to meet colleagues and friends he has come to know. He also can not wait to meet the other side of the family
• Esther- My family, my beautiful grandma's memories, spending time with my family, travelling with my sister, meeting all sorts of people and of course the food!!
• Sarah- "I am excited about going to India (overseas) for the first time and learning cartooning and other art from my mum's cousins." (they have animated for 'The Simpsons', Barbie movies and 'The adventures of Peter Pan etc.' (Aunty Sireesha and Uncle Chandu)
• Daniel is quite apprehensive and cautious as he already believes he has been to India having spent 2 weeks in Sydney and meeting 75% of the Sydney Indian population at his Grand father's house. Daniel famously quoting "I don't like Indian Weetbix"... pointing to the Vita Brits. We obviously don't import them to Melbourne.
• Gabby is Gabby. She is going with the flow without any care in the world. She'll be more concerned that we haven't packed most of wardrobe and her blanket. She is limited to one dress change a day!
• Nimmi (Ammama)- P.S; PLEASE READ IN INDIAN ACCENT- "Well, actually you know, my curries are much hotter and tastier!"

Look out for our stories as we embark on many cities and towns across India including Hyderabad, Bangalore, Delhi, Kerala and Chennai (Amongst many others)
