Last weekend was my dear Matilda's birthday.
Matilda and I met very randomly: I was nannying for a mum who was a friend of Matilda's dad's ex-girlfriend. Yes. When she came to Australia from Finland on her birthday 3 years ago, the airlines kindly lost all her luggage, and she got such a severe case of food poisoning, she was more or less comatose for her first 3 days in the country. When she regained her appetite, she came over to the house I was working at and we all had pizza... and the rest, as they say, is history. Since then we've exchanged hundreds of e.mails, spent hours on the phone, and traipsed around a good portion of India together. It is fantastic to be living in the same beautiful city once again.
