Our home
We've put a sticker with the Goddess Lakshmi's footprint on the floor.
It will give us the wealth we are waiting for.
Our living room with the smallest fat TV on the market and vintage saris as curtains.
Leya and I have put photos of our family in the windows in the livingroom.
Leya's sister Emmi, who lives in Sweden with her mother, got her own window place.
We miss her a lot!
The hall/computer central with a bedsheet we bought in Jaipur as a wall decoration.
The small kitchen.
We are not cooking food here yet, but you never know.
This room we have sorted for Jain when he arrives from Goa next week.
I can't believe I have a grown up indian son.
Today we built this room divider in our bedroom.
Our mattresses on the floor. Nice and cozy!

Blood
Leya was running and tripped over a sofa.
She started to bleed from the eyebrow and was of course crying.
We went to a nearby doctors clinic and glued the wound.
After a while everything was fine again.

Mastanja
We went to the 45 year old elephant Mastanja's home. He is huge, about 3,5 meters high.
We decided to take a ride. It was amazing and worth every rupee.
The slow rythm was so relaxing.
Leya patted the trunk. Not very smooth, but fantastic.

Monkey temple
The driver took us to the Monkey temple, but we don't have good relations with monkeys since our trip to Radha Kund, so we just took some photos from the car.
You rarely see any pigs in India, but this was a cute one.

Beautiful setting of the Shri Lakshmi Narayan Temple.
Do India have any safety regulations at all for their employees?

The bus ride
The bus ride to Jaipur was alright. We left one hour late and arrived 40 minutes early.
Our bus driver and assistant driver, Shiva, just before take-off.
Leya loves to watch out through the window. Always an adventure!

Halter
My latest crazy project. Halter made of vintage sari fabric.
Every piece is unique! Can be made in any color, with or wihtout gold or silver.
Can also be made for cat or dog collar or leash.

Paper stars
Since fans are located in the ceilings the lamps are placed on the walls.
There are no lamp shades in this flat, so I made my own of Christmas paper stars.
