Good Luck on your adventure. From Australia I will be following with interest your reflection on people’s different experiences with their water supplies and how much it costs them, both physically and economically.

Good luck CSP. The first rains have hit Bangaloe yesterday. May winds carry whisp of cool air and billions of droplets of crystal cleal water to all part of India where your wheels touch. I wish your trail marked by abundance down pour and the message to conserve, protect and preserve our watery treasures. I am very inspired by your courage to take off with a noble mission.

Thanks a lot sir. Rains are following us everywhere. But we have been lucky enough to be spared and not get drenched.
