Loved the sense of isolation, you paint a picture in much less than a thousand words. As far as the extra language goes, I have no French, but any other language adds another layer of interest, imho. <br /><br />For the last one month, blogging has been difficult - patchy, borrowed connections, moving around between two cities, and blogger also played up, wasn't able to log in, wasn't able to comment, so relieved to be back and find everything's normal. Glad to have made it to WEP. Will have to revisit your post on blogging.<br />Best,<br />NilaNilanjana Bosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08656370320322301943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7362528912516506170.post-37580522613178355612014-07-25T03:42:47.360+10:002014-07-25T03:42:47.360+10:00Truly a heart warming piece, mixed with sadness.
