I am heading for a place, where I love to be the most, and on my way to that, I find so many things that remind me of my Calcutta and people back there. I see the smaller version of the yellow trams of Cal, I see the european version of Netaji's statue near my home in shyambazar. I see the like of Vidya Sagar Setu stretching across the river. I was in one of the most happening places of lisbon but i soon discovered that the riverside is quite near so leaving behind the showrooms and restaurants, I headed straight for this.. Tagus River.. Thank God I listened to my roommate who suggested me that it would not be a very good idea to stay at home on a sunday afternoon in Lisbon. So I just went along with her, who had plans for opera show with her friends. She showed the way to metro and my university which I m gonna join tomorrow.. My frequent visits to New Delhi in the last 2 months ans travelling via metro helped me understand the lisbon metro better.. They are very much similar with all the red line n blue line stuff..newaz..After the metro ride she joined her frnz n i headed for straight for the waters. Ohh..!! I also see the ferry. anoder reminder of my town.. Today I am not in an adventurous mood so maybe i vl try the ferry ride some other day.. Now I jus wanna write, writing after really long.. the hectic schedule in and aftr colg made it so difficult for me to sit still and write .. But on the banks of the river when the cold wind is blowing past me and the turbulent waters are gushing against the stones , I jus wanna sit and write.. Sitting next to a riverside or any water body sets me into this introspective mood, could be the crabby effect of my cancerian sun sign.
So many people are coming , taking pictures and going back but i wanna sit and feel the air of lisbon and try and get accustomed to it for the next 2 n haf months.......... Will update more soon..
Cheers
Sweta
