Just got back from a 6 days retreat trip to India with J and my parents which was organized by the Centre of Inner Studies (CIS), Singapore. CIS was established in 2006 and is affiliated to the World Pranic Healing Foundation in Manila. They are a non-profit organization which teaches pranic healing with proven scientific approach (a “no-touch, no-drug” energy based healing modality). And the best thing is that it is not linked to any religion.
The trip to India was a real eye-opener, we thoroughly enjoyed the process and food. And it was seriously therapeutic, love the peace and quietness over there :D We arrived in Mumbai and took a 6 hours bus ride to a mountain in Pune. We passed by many slums and it was really sad to see the living conditions of the people. The weather was slightly chilly at night (around 10degrees I think) and in the afternoon it's really warm.

And I have to say that I had the most memorable trip of my life- I have a terrible case of acrophobia but because of my 'itchy backside' (nothing literal), I decided to give mountain hiking a go. With only a torchlight, we took off at 5.30am in pitch darkness, it was really scary for me especially with my wild imagination and any lack of concentration can send me rolling off the mountain because it was pretty steep. The hike up and down took about 4 hours and throughout the journey, I was like tearing non-stop and kept saying "OMG i'm gonna fall off!" and didn't want to move, haha that was how bad my phobia was. But I'm so glad that I managed to conquer the mountain and to have J next to me ;D
Sorry didn't have much photos of the trip.
On the way to the airport, we stopped by a mall to take a look and to do some quick shopping :)
