the train departs

dear friend, aquaintance, family member, blogsurfer,

 

and yet another new blog has arisen the shreds of binary encoding...but this is a special one. it will be scribbled on by two teenagers soon living on opposite ends of this world. in other words, half this blog will be written my best friend Pragathi, and the other half by myself, Julia. 

as our names might hint, for those lost souls in the wide world of blogs that have bumped into this and dont know us, i'm german, and pragathi is indian. two cultures, two timezones, two best friends and one blog. it will contain daily life, culture clashes, arguments, literary pieces of genius, news and random bits and pieces of our osmosing minds.

there, that should be enough for the conventional blog introduction shouldnt it?

so, the transcontinental train (the flight on sunday morning) is ready to take off. can all passengers please board; emergency exits are here here and here; we are waiting for the ok signal by the tower, and are ready and set for take off. please keep all umbrellas ready, for the almost perpetual indian sun could easily be bothered by some shivering german rainshowers. the osmosed flight company hopes you have an enjoying flight!

or as my favourite science tv show says:

"bleiben sie uns treu, empfehlen sie uns weiter!"
