NAMASKARAM/WELCOME/HERZLICH WILLKOMMEN/CIAO

You have either followed your curiosity or came across this site by chance - it does not really matter all that much - I am simply happy that you dropped in to say "hello". This site is primarily aimed to reach the non Indian reader in the hope to wet their appetite to read about my Beautiful South India, Kerala - the land of Coconuts and especially my city Cochin. And for Keralites abroad I hope you too will find some subjects to suit your own tastes. I will also try to entice you with recipes for some of the delicious food of this region. But not only that, I will tell you about my birth country Germany and especially the country, which our family has fallen in love with, a long long time ago and draws us back for visits again and again at least twice a year – Italy! I hope you like what you see and read so far and as time goes by you hopefully will find subjects which interest you, whoever and wherever you are in the world. So, come back to me from time to time. And, please, be generous with your praise and fair with your criticism.

Lost and found!

Some people say 'miracles do happen' - as in my case today. I finally gave in to "the love of my life" urging me to start my own blog. And to my great embarrassment (and amusement) I found out that I had started this blog nearly 3 years ago! and then .... nothing. What happened you may well ask and to be honest I can only reply "I do not know". We did travel an awful lot in that time and being a total novice to this blog business, I must have put the idea, writing here, completely out of my mind. Instead I continued reading other peoples blogs, especially the ones which are dealing with subjects of my interests. So, as of now, I have every intention to come back to this page at least a couple of times per week. I also will include a couple of my absolute favourite blogs so far, which I try never to miss.
Unfortunately I have just come back out of hospital after a small operation, and this means a little bit more bedrest and less sitting in front of the computer - doctor's orders! But how can I resist not reading, google and even trying to write another page on my book? Alas, though the mind is willing, my eyes are not - they are slowly falling asleep. So, forgive me for now - I will come back tomorrow. Ciao
