Where?

Some fast facts about India:
- About 1,2 billion people (2nd in the world)
-India is the 7th biggest country in the world to the surface.
-India is divided in to about 25 pieces.
-The capital is New Dehli.
Here you have a picture: 

Nearly all India is surrounded by water. So it's really good earth to grow things in. 
The country has many lakes and many mountains, so a really varying environment.

The temperature here is amazing. The heat begins in February and after that it just get better and better. Sometimes it's up to 45 degrees. I wouldn't say no to that.

Who?

Now I will tell you little about my new home country's most famous and power-holding people.
Let's start with the president of India. She is a woman, who would have guessed. I haven't been so involved in India's politic before, so I'm little surprised that so
many women have good political roles.
You may have heard about indira gandhi? A really strong and delightful woman.
 I think it's just great and wonderful that Indian females have start to take place.
Anyway the president's name is Pratibha Patil. India's first female president.
So nice, I like her very much, I think she is cute and looks really smart and kind, she seems like a splendid woman. She is the main head of state, but it's like in Sweden, the king is not the one who controls the country. It's the "prime minister". His name is Manmohan Singh.
 I think he looks super cosy.
 And here we have them both together:
I have never laid my eyes on anything sweeter.

Why I chose to blog about this country

I have chosen to write about the republic of India. It was an easy choice, because when I first saw the sentence “chose a country” I felt directly in my heart that India was the place for me. And also the place to be, so now I'm on an airplane on my way to my new home. It seems so lovely, friendly, warm and delightful. A blessed country and i can't wait to start blog about it. When I'm there I'll of course change everything about myself to fit in. Eat what they eat, be dressed like they dress, speak like they speak. I've already get started and I hope and pray that you read this in your head with a lovely Indian accent.


here you have my new famliy, to bad that you can't see my face (Aschia covers it with her's)
She is my sister and she is really good at hunting
unfriendly animales, we use to call her dragon slayer.
