Bern travels to India

Arun and his parents

In mid February, I flew back to the yacht in Langkawi for a few days, then flew to Chennai in India.
I have been sponsoring children there for some time and my current child Arun for over 10 years. Arun is currently 20years old and is studying engineering. He has grown into a fine young man and has been very successful with his studies. It was a somewhat emotional first meeting with Arun and his parents. He was nervous, but after awhile, relaxed and we had lots to talk about. His English was quite good, thank goodness, as my Indian was non existent.
