Jean-Paul started a journey, a world travel in 2003. It was for the adventure and I'd hoped some where along the way I would find some soul related answers. I followed the yellow brick road you could say, and I met many characters along it.... Some of them have even left messages on this website. You can too.
And the journey became longer than expected. You can see this in my Archives.
Yet somewhere along the way I lost that 'yellow brick road', but in essence I am still on that journey.
This website is about my travel, in all its aspects. A World travel with an Inner travel. The story of the walk.

[Whats Normal..]
Although I have spent quite some time in India it still manages to surprise me now and then.
Just the other day I caught a rickshaw to visit a friend, when we came upon an elephant in the middle of the road. She is called Sai Gita and is a pet of the ashram. She was standing serenely minding her own business, literally right in the middle of the road, while the traffic continued as 'normal' as it went around and behind her. Watching it all and unconcerned for our madness, Sai Gita just stood there like it was the most natural thing to do for an elephant in this situation.
I commented on this to a friend of mine, saying how "the traffic and Indians just went around her like she was a cow on the road". He had to laugh and pointed out the irony of it all- that a cow in the middle of the road was somehow normal but an elephant....!
