I have just arrived in Dubai after an uneventful departure from Kolkata. I remembered all the rules at the airport, presented my boarding pass, passes effortlessly through the grubby curtain and I have now emerged into a clean and sparkly Dubai airport. Clean toilets yippee!!

So, now sat here in the departure gate for the final leg of my journey.

Have I enjoyed India? Most certainly yes. It has been very different, at times odd but overall quite a vibrant place.
