India

India Having spent 6 months working and travelling in India, I have many stories to tell about the country. I have therefore divided the articles into several sections: Daily Life & Work - experiences throughout my everyday life and work in Gurgaon, an business and technology hub near Delhi. North… Read more

Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia The plan for my Southeast Asia trip was simple. I had done some research on the Internet before I left the UK, ordered a Rough Guide to Southeast Asia and a map on Amazon. I had a flight from Delhi to Singapore and a flight from Bangkok to Delhi eighteen days later. I did not book any… Read more

About Me

About ME My parents met on a train. If I believed in destiny, I could safely conclude that I was meant to travel. When I was a baby, people used to comment on the “exotic expression” in my eyes. One day, I think I was about 18 months old at the time, my mother took me to the photographer to have my… Read more

Part Two: A change of scenery

On Saturday morning, we took a cab to Delhi airport. Turns out there are two airports – the domestic and international. I phone the airline to check which one we are leaving from, just in case. Clearly, it was the domestic one but you never know. The cab driver asks us to pay him about 5 kilometres… Read more

Future Travel

Future Travel I don't really believe in "travel goals". You often hear people say things like "I want to set foot on every continent." Or "I want to visit 50 countries by the time I am 30 years old." Another popular one would be: "I want to date someone from every… Read more

Punk's not Dead

Don't worry I have not forgotten about this website and I keep writing in my spare time. Something will be published soon, I promise. For now, there will be one minor change. I have decided to start using pseudonyms, so please consider all the characters to be fictional as of now! :o)… Read more

Shimla & Chandigarh

Shimla & Chandigarh FRIDAY Shimla was a weekend of my escape. We were not even supposed to go to Shimla. Alessandro mentioned the trip to me a couple of days before. It was the week after I came back to work from my week in Goa and Kerala. My boyfriend had just dumped me and I was prepared to go… Read more

Hindi, Urdu and Bengali (a lonely planet phrasebook)

I thought it mandatory to make at least a little bit of effort to learn Hindi whilst living in India. I carried this book around me everywhere and my Indian work colleagues referred to it as the “joke book”. You can buy the book here on Amazon. Let’s not kid ourselves; you will never learn a language… Read more

So who really is an individualist?

There is a widely accepted notion that Europeans (or Westerners) are individualistic. It’s normal for us to move hundreds of miles away from home in search of the perfect job, leaving our family behind. It’s normal for us to send our children to nursery school from an early age, instead of becoming… Read more

Goodbye India, Hello Singapore

Was I worried about travelling to Southeast Asia on my own? Oh boy . Alessandro had left the day before me, so that was it. I was the last person on the boat. I was the last one of the gang still left in India, alone in the apartment. Ingrid and Paula had left before Christmas. And after that, it was… Read more

South India

South India Although South India was pretty far from Gurgaon, I managed to go there twice during the six months I spent in India. My first trip was a birthday treat - a holiday in Goa and Kerala. The second time, I went to Mumbai and Goa for Christmas. It takes two hours to fly from Delhi to Mumbai,… Read more

Pushkar

Pushkar Our trip to Pushkar was organized in the usual way, passing emails back and forth on the international analysts mailing list and finally a bunch of us decided that the best time to go would be for the annual camel fair. Accommodation is expensive and difficult to find during this time, so our… Read more

London

Right now, I am fortunate enough to live in one of the most exciting cities in the world - London. In order to make the most of my time here, I have started a blog about interesting… Read more

Welcome to New New Delhi

During my first couple of weeks with Evalueserve, my Indian employer, I was put through an intensive induction training programme. One of the sessions focused on primary research and how to talk effectively on the phone. It was very interactive and included opportunities for us to practice phone calls… Read more
