“The stars may be distant, but each dream is a step closer to the light...” - Indian Proverb

Day 09: 02 January 2009
Route: Delhi - KL
As the day faded, we had a simple dinner and waited at the airport for our midnight flight. From the window, Delhi shimmered in the distance - vast, complex, alive. The noise and chaos now felt comforting, almost musical, as if the city itself was saying goodbye.
Looking back, the journey through India felt like turning the pages of a living poem. Srinagar whispered of peace - its lakes mirroring the sky in stillness. Jaipur dazzled with royal splendour and desert warmth. Agra spoke in the language of love, its marble monuments glowing with emotion. And Delhi, with its layers of history and humanity, showed the strength of a nation still finding beauty in its contradictions.
As our plane soared into the clouds, India remained with me - in the scent of chai, the rhythm of temple bells, the kindness of strangers, and the timeless hum of life that never stands still. It is a country that humbles and awakens you - a place that doesn’t just show you the world, but quietly changes the way you see it.
By the time we landed in Kuala Lumpur at dawn, I carried with me more than just memories.
