Paris Again








Well, I am writing after long time. Lot has happened in between. I was quite busy in work. I was busy in building and setting my team. I was busy in preparing my travel documents. I travelled to Paris again. Again for two months. So I hope to write posts on my trip here.

I was in Paris three months before. When I was in India, there were few attacks in Paris and France. So how is Paris after that? Have things changed in between? I am not sure. At first look everything appears same as before. But, now I see a Police van outside the famous news channel. A heavily equipped police guard is standing 24 / 7 outside news agencies door near my hotel. But, people of Paris appears same to me. Same smiling, cooperating people to each other. I hear same Bonjour, Merci, Pardon sound whenever I am travelling or at office, or shop, or hotel. Even though I feel little more concerned now while visiting places. May be its unnecessary fear, but its there.

Weather here is changing everyday. Sometime its cloudy and it becomes sunny one hour after. Its unpredictable. Now, day is getting longer. It is bright even at 7.30PM. Daytime will increase even more in coming two months. Though day is longer, still its cold. I came from Chennai. When I was in Chennai, temperature there was 35 deg C. It was very hot. So it is taking some time for me to adjust these huge change in temperature. Same thing is going to happen when I will return.

I hope to find some time to share my experience on this blog. :)

Three things I Like About Chennai

I am living in Chennai for about six months now and I was thinking what are the good thing I like about Chennai. Few things quickly popped in my mind. I am mentioning them here.  I. People are sincere about their work I will call Chennaikars to people of Chennai, who are living in Chennai irrespective of their age, gender, native place, language etc. I feel Chennaikars are much sincere about their work. It doesn’t matter what work they do. May it be engineers, doctors, any other workers. It can be observed easily when we go to any shop, tea stall, hotel etc. Just to give example, I happened to go to two different doctors few months back.  At the first doctor's place we paid consultation fees, after consultation doctor found that there is nothing wrong. So he asked reception to return money. This was new experience to me. At other time, at other doctor’s place, when doctor found patient is not cured by his medicine, he gave free consultation and medicines next t...

Reaching Stockholm

Wow  this year I am already starting for another country after Perth. In Europe after three years...to Stockholm Sweden. I hope everything will be great at work and other. Good news is I don't have to start from Mumbai. I can take flight to Stockholm from Pune via Delhi. I recently heard that Pune airport stands at 9th rank in service. Well I like the service. People/staff was helpful. All sign boards were at place. Good job Pune. Delhi airport I must say is great. It is neat and clean. It is huge. It looks like airport of India's capital.  I have seen some airports in the world and in India and I can say this is one of the best airports. Our flight took path over Pakistan, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Russia, Estonia and so on. We always hear about Afghanistan many news. While I was in school I learnt about Afghanistan how it has difficult terrain with just mountains. I was able to witness it this time. For many hundreds of kilometers I was just able to see dry Rocky ...

Weekend at Pondicherry

Few days ago I went to Pondicherry or Puducherry with family. It was French colony before Independence. Pondicherry is at about 160 kms from Chennai. It is favorite trip destination for various reasons. There are some beautiful beaches, rocky beaches. You can buy any brand of bear, whiskey, vodka etc. at cheaper rates. In Chennai you won't get all brands as it's restricted by state government. So many people go for enjoying hard drinks. Pondicherry still have French flavor in its life. The old buildings have French architectural touch. Policeman caps resembles that with French police. Even some Church resemble with saint Notre Dame at Paris. I stayed at Green Palace hotel. It was really great place to stay. They have studied French hotels very well. I received all the services that I use to get in Paris. Resemblance is astonishing. At approximately 2kms from hotel there is a very good Rock beach. The place is great. There is a road parallel to the beach where you can ta...
