Street gathering

Vatizthis?? A common view, during cricket tournaments... People gathering outside any shop/restaurant/place having a tv....

Four years ago I met a girl in Pune. Sweet fun girl. Sikh girl dating a Christian guy for like 4 years. Studying dentistry. We went for a few drinks. Normal student life… Then one day she went home in Punjab. Told her mum about the boyfriend. Decision was taken: you finish your semester and you come back home. It then took a year to find the husband. The kind of guy who...

Orissa or India and her pious tradition… 2

At breakfast, the room of the restaurant is empty, as well as the plates. We feel like asking for the moon when we ask for toasts. We decide to give up, leave and buy biscuits somewhere. Well, yes, except that the car will be 30 minutes late. The guy at the reception sends us back to breakfast where by magic food has appeared! We stuff ourselves with parathas and potatoes! ...

Orissa or India and her pious tradition… 3

The next morning, on the advice of the guy at the hotel, we decide to go to Jagannath temple at 5 in the morning, the “best time” according to him. We are excited: it is an important place of pilgrimage, apparently a site that Hindus should visit at least once in their life! How surprised we are when we discover, at the entry number one, that only Hindus are authorized to enter!! But...

Orissa or India and her pious tradition… 1

I recently did a mini-break in Orissa. Orissa, and more precisely Puri, is there: Immediate question when I speak about this trip (to Indians and others): “But why there?? Why Orissa??“ I was looking for a place to visit with my friends, with a big time constraint – which doesn’t really help in India. I had posed a first...

The Indigo mystery.

Indigo is an Indian low-cost, my favorite. Brand new planes, a nice TV ad and they are regularly on time. When I went back and forth to Bhubaneshwar, I found the stewardesses’ haircuts weird: how could they all have short hair? I looked and looked and finally I was sure: they wear wigs!! Poor things... I took Indigo later on and all the hostesses were not wearing the...

Foreigners working in India

On October 12th I happened to watch the news and to see an outraged journalist asking that “how could the UK plan to tighten immigration rules?” Yeah what the hell huh? hat the least they owe the Indians!! The story here is that till now, “temporary immigration led to an automatic right to settle here”. So if you are a foreigner and you have worked in the UK for 5 years, you...

5 years ago…

…I arrived in India… Here are 2 dialogues quite typical when non-Indian people ask me for how long I have been in India. The 1 st one is usually with a non-Indian who 1. has never been in India, 2. visited India on holidays and 3. has just arrived in India. And the 2 nd is with a non-Indian person who has had some brush with India… -...

The fastest way to reach the hospital in India...

But there is no guarantee that this will work because you have to pay first!

Checking Indian hospital hospitality

On a Sunday morning of October, I wake up in Delhi with a pain in the intestine, on the right side, and really nauseous. It’s going to pass… (It’s not like it is the first time I have a tummy upset!) On Thursday, I am really not well and I go to the doctor – it’s nice, there is a French-speaking doctor in Mumbai! She suspects an acute appendice, give me antibiotics and send me to...
