Dear Hedda, I'm finally in China, I spent already here a few days it was too hot and I was around I didn't write yet to anybody now I'm perspiring like a waterfall (I had two cups of tea and it's very hot, 4 o'clock in the afternoon) - anyway it's a lot better here than in Calcutta though I don't have here all the chic and comfort I had there It's very hot but nights are wonderfull here, quiet and cool 
I really enjoy the place, I'm in kind of village with many villages around on the many hills around - people are nice, no more the sad faces of India, begging and looking like dogs or crows
