I'm here but I'm not really here

Jetlag's no fun when you know you have to wake up for work tomorrow.

I'm back from my trip. Haven't unpacked much yet and my room is a mess from all the stuff I'd collected - magazines, flyers, stickers.. you name it, I picked it up. Surprisingly, for the first time in a very long time my luggage was under the weight limit and I have about 300+ Euros left. And I only bought two pairs of shoes.

Am in love with Amsterdam and the quiet calm of the city even at its busiest hours. Am even more in love with the buildings that sit, the new and the old, happily next to each other amidst the flat landscape and the canals. Lloyd Hotel, where we stayed, is one such place -- a playful, imaginative space nestled within the shell of and old immigrant house. The weather was gorgeous, the heat wave that struck France seemed to have missed us completely. I miss it all already.

Next stop, Cairns in September!
