Day 1: On the way

8:26 (Finnish time) "Kotimaa kun taakse jäi..." Johanna and Jussi drove me to Helsinki-Vantaa Airport. The last sad goodbyes change to "intolerable lightness of traveling".
I miss Kaisa a lot and it feels strange to travel alone. On the other hand, that's what this journey is about: "Finding yourself, fullfilling a dream and building our life together." I feel that we both understand this. It's very difficult, but we will work it out!

I think I sound over-dramatic. Blääh. That's not what I want. Please read with patience; I will improve!


15:02 (GMT) I board the plane. British Airways aircraft model XY. There are lots of them but I manage to find the right one. I also bought and iPod. Now I'm broke.
I get the seat 17a, which is on the windowside. Except that there is no window. I maintain my good mood despite this minor drawback, which I'm happy about. Next to me sits a Swedish nurse who's going to work in Kolkata the next 9 months. I manage to speak fluent Swedish, which I'm also happy about. Also the food is good. I take two small bottles of wine! Both are good.
I change my clocks to Indian time. Looks like its time to get some sleep.
I won't, which is strange. I usually do. I miss Kaisa again. It feels sad but good. Missing the one you love is one of the most beautiful feelings. Happy being sad? Contradiction again.
