Farewell to my Indian friends
Tuesday morning they left. It was marvellous to see them here, to show them a little bit of my world. We had an informal dinner here on Sunday - we cooked Indian food, that they have longed for. On Monday I listened to the seminar, which was interesting. Dinner and breakfast together - then good bye. I wish they could have stayed longer, that we would have had more time together.

Bhopal bus comes to Sweden
On Sunday, the Bhopal Bus is arriving at Stockholm. This is something arranged by Amnesty International. Read more at http://www.amnesty.se/2009/11/04/bhopal_bus_tour/ or www.bhopalbus.com.
I got to know about the tour only a month ago, from Becky, one of the English drivers. As the people of the bus are my friends, of course I welcome them. My co-house Sockenstugan (www.sockenstugankollektiv.nu) has invited the Indian guests to stay in our guestrooms, and on Sunday, we will have an informal party. I am also going to listen to them at the Human Right-days - I have already registered. Today, I will have a small presentation for my neighbours here in the house and show pictures from Bhopal, Sambhavna and "my" family. 18.02 [kommentar]

Meeting the Ambassador
Some weeks ago, I met the Ambassador himself at a Diwali celebration. He is a very charming and kind man. When he heard what had happened, he said he would find out about "banned from all visits to India". I am invited to a conference on children and environment in Bangalore (http://incheshpfindia.org), and he promised to give me visa. So now I am collecting all papers I need.
