Back to the blog

Well, it has been a while since I have posted in this blog, so I wanted to leave a quick posting of a quote that I ran into and really appreciate:

Oscar Wylde said "every action of the common day makes or unmakes character"

While Wylde may not be a role model for how to live your live, that quote definately is a pretty good reminder that albiet trivial, what we do today impacts tomorrow.

Live for today!

India (Mumbai) - Day 1

 

Holy crap this place is definitely a reality check.  Let me put it this way, Tijuana looks like a resort town compared to many of the areas I drove through on my way to the hotel and to the office.

From the moment you get off the plane, the culture and environment hits you.  Heck from the moment you are on final approach to the airport, you get the feeling things are different; just by the Christmas lights that are used to light up various portions of the outskirts.  Once outside the airport, you are bombarded by locals trying to give you a ride or get money from you, or worse yet, scam you.  The food is insanely spicy, and the air is always moist. 

The plane ride was very long but overall ok.  I am super tired right now because I couldn’t sleep much last night.  My ride to the office was something I will never forget.  People were driving so chaotically, honking at every car, there are no rules around here. 

Once arriving at the hotel, you are greeted by the hotel staff with warm open arms.  It’s almost like a little piece of heaven, a calming feeling overcomes you.
