Back in business

I have been back in Beijing a few weeks now. In certain ways the settling in has been harder the second time round. The reasons are not hard to find.

Break wound down. As is always the case, just about when I began feeling settled with life in Delhi again, it was time to move. While there I ate more than I ought have, food rich in spices and often richer in oil. I still feel sated and perhaps also a little bloated as I write this.

But I am back, and already in the thick of things. IUP is demanding, and getting into the right frame of mind for it has been the story of the forthnight. And it is very much a developing one...
