They the freedom walk team, reached my home by 9PM on Wednesday, after a walk of 30+ kilometers. For Thursday, the KSEB team of Palakkad had arranged three sessions of talk for them, at PMG School, Public Library and Mercy College. The walk at Palakkad town started by 9am in morning, to PMG School. The shortest route was selected, for walking from my home (mercy college jn) to PMG, through Palakkad Big Bazaar Market. Along with the market the route covered Town railway station, Municipal bus stand, Moyans School before reaching PMG, and a view of Victoria College. The session was for government staff , there Anoop made a small description on free software and freedom walk. After that the walk moved to Public Library and then to Mercy college in Sulthanpeta, Palakkad fort, Mission School, KSRTC, Nurani route. In Mercy college session, Anoop did introduction speech on ideas of freedom walk, Sooraj introduced free software ethics, Cheery described how to contribute and I did a minor intro to localization, Malayalam computing and SMC. It was really a great experience, BUT It made ME to walk 7km, that too through the most traveled routes in my life, which I am walking for the very first time!

Great Job, Hats off to Freedom walkers!
