So here I am - Helsingborg, Sweden. The southernmost part of (almost) the northernmost region of this planet.
The trip out of India was quite uneventful - a bit of turbulence on way to Delhi, an absolutely smooth-as-silk landing at Delhi airport (bless the pilot), a timely flight to France and an equally timely flight to Denmark. The nifty bit was crossing the Oresund in a train from Copenhagen to Helsingborg; the view as I crossed the ocean was positively breathtaking.
The apartment that I'm in is quite nice; a fully-equipped kitchen, a departmental store with almost everything right next door, comfy beds - not much more you can ask for. And on a clear day, the sea-view is lovely and you can actually see Denmark on the other side!
What surprised me, though, is the nature/attitude of the people here - they are amazingly helpful and polite - without exception (so far). It really goes a long way in alleviating the sense of detachment you have at times when you travel to other countries.
Well, not much more to write about at the moment - watch this space for more!
