From India, With Love

Despite the unoriginal and boring title, i am having a wonderful time in India!
And yes, I am currently in Chennai since the 11th, if you didn't know.

I'm priviledged to have Kuhan's family's hospitality here. And so far, Chennai has been illuminating. The colours for the local bazaar are absolutely amazing! And it's not as filthy as I've been told. I mean, I probably expected much worse but the living condition I'm exposed to so far isn't horrible at all. We have similar types of filth in Malaysia. Except maybe we don't see and smell ppl's pee in the streets as often. But then, I suppose being in the upper middle class society might offer a better view of India. Ofcourse I do see the hardships of the locals. However, there's definitely a huge gap between sympathizing and relating to.

On a lighter note, I will be leaving for Bangalore tomorrow and Goa 3 days after and I'm absolutely excited out of my wits! Can't wait for some sun and sea and sight seeing~ It's really too bad I can't upload any photos here. The USB on this computer isn't working. So until I find one that does, use your imaginations k:) Till then!
