India!
I finally decided to get a blog after many many requests. Let the experience begin!
I arrived safely. Betsy has taken great care of me. I can't even describe how thankful I am. We have an awesome apartment, another great roommate, i have office space and after two weeks i finally got an AC!
I feel like a kid that is learning everything for the first time. I felt like i had accomplished one of the greatest goals in my life when I took a rickshaw by myself and actually made it to my destination. I had a flashback to when I used to live in Venezuela when I was crossing the streets (except for the cows that stop the traffic and never get hit but I know cars won't stop for me).
It's interesting... I feel like I'm back home with no systems, bureacracy, taking days or weeks to get one thing done, frustration but also great food, nice people, lovely music and adventures every day. But it's not my country. I don't speak the language and no one has my shade of brown.
It's cultural shock all over again after 7 years of being out of my country... all over again and yet another level.
