Met quite a few bloggers last year. Most recently, it was Lazy Lump who I had a nice chat with over coffee, when I was in Hyderabad (December, 2003). Here’s the picture I’ve been meaning to post for a while.

More pictures of my Hyderabad and Bangalore trip are also here.
On Saturday night, I met with Stephanie, a blogger from Switzerland. I’ve been in touch with her off and on. She was in Pune in 1999-2000. And came back for a visit in 2001. Besides her interest in the country, we also have something else in common – our cats! When she said she was making a trip to India, we made plans to meet.
On her way to Pune she stayed a night in Mumbai. She arrived before time and waiting patiently when I reached the airport (there was actually heavy traffic in Andheri at 11.30 pm, God save this city!).
Anyways, brought a visibly tired but really excited Steph home where she eagerly dug into her first meal here. We’re planning to do a bit of travelling together before she leaves India next month, so that should be fun.
Here she is, making friends with Kit Kit, who’s still a little wary of strangers, but made a few shy moves.
A few more pictures in my Bloggers album.

Hi Anita
I actually stumbled into your blogpost
thru a link at some other site.
I thought your name sounded very familiar..and little surprise later when I realized that you
are the journo from rediff. Great to see your art work and your online journal.

Hi Anita! Hadn’t been here in a few weeks. Happy Belated New Years and all that Jazz! Anywyas, just wanted to stop and say “Hi!” Let me know if you ever come to US! Peace!
Hmm.. I’ve always wondered why people would want to meet bloggers. Judging by myself, bloggers are a nerdy bunch of closet wisecrackers. Their only reason for existence is annonymity. Why would you want to meet such a person, eh ? But then, what do I know. Maybe the chocolate is finally reaching my brain.
