Around 100 people died and 200 people got injured when Mumbai was attacked by terrorists on the evening of the 26th of November 2008. My thoughts are with the families who lost someone in the attack. This attack took terrorism to a new level. 12 targets were hit. Amongst those 12, I have visited 2 in the last 5 days. I went to Leopolds on Saturday evening, enjoying the multicultural ambience. Monday evening my boss took me to a wedding in the Royal Taj Mahal Intercontinental. Me being at those two locations at some point already says who the terrorists were [View Full Entry]

Just after I uploaded the last blog, I met Raj and his Gf. He is a dude selling maps to tourists, travel agencies etc here, she is a Parisian who is living in the south of France and well yeah. They're gna marry. It is the second time she's been over here, but they talk on the phone every day. It is quite weird to look at them, but also quite nice.. gives you hope in humanity, y'know? So it's not all about the money, people can still break social boundaries. She is a chique girl from Paris, he is a [View Full Entry]

salut! hello! hallo! hej! hola! ciao! The past two weeks were very exciting. Wait.. I should maybe not start all my entries like this. But, well , they were very exciting. Had another excursion to the centre of Mumbai in one of these lovely trains. It really sucks not understanding Hindi, because I was waiting on one of the platforms where the 'quick' train to churchgate was supposed to start, but they changed the platform and I got the slow train. Was okay though.. had a newspaper and loads of music. Part I: Partying. On my last trip to the centre, [View Full Entry]

'This is not India. There are people here from every part of India, but Bombay isn't India. Bombay is an own-world, a world in itself. The real India is out there. Out there, where the light stops.' (Gregory David Roberts, Shantaram) This is what I have come to notice in my past days, people have told me this over and over, but as I haven't been outside Mumbai yet, I really can't tell... maybe ed von schleck can compare my views with the experiences he had and tell us all about it in a comment - would be really interesting as [View Full Entry]

Hello again! Mhhh. Quite a lot happened in the last days.. as always. Every day seems to be adventurous but to me, it somehow feels normal. Very weird. I think i've already taken in so much new information and new tastes and so on, so that nothing new comes in.. i really have to start 'digesting' some things. As we are talking about digestion: I have not had traveller diarrhea whoop whoop. But i havent rly travelled so.. ;) Thursday was shocking - as the indian government is planning to make all taxis which are older than 25 years illegal, the [View Full Entry]
