New home, new friends, what a lucky girl!
Today’s count:
New foreign friends: two and counting…
Dead cockroaches in my room: one
Commuters on my bus to work: o thousands!!
Okay, blogging less is a good sign, it means I actually have something else to do besides updating my blog. Boring entries are also good signs, it means I have more interesting things to think on. So now that you are prepared, here is a brief update of the past week:
On Tuesday I moved into another apartment, as a paying guest with an Indian lady (just like in a fine balance!); it’s a much better area and much closer to work; no more scary train rides with people picking their nose and wiping it on me, hooray!
Managed to meet some other expats in the Bombay area, whom I will be meeting up with this weekend and in the coming week, for dinner/drinks/board games/book club. (Yes I will be nerd no matter where I go!)
O there is a new intern at the office, an AIESECer from Germany. Also, there is an overnight work retreat at a "beach resort" today, I was told not to bring a bathing suit because most Indians can’t swim and prefer to go into the pool fully dressed… should be interesting…

Ada, its really nice to see your blog from time to time. I'm astonished how well and quickly you seem to come to grips with india's circumstances. You are courageous and I got the impression you manage well to combine western provenance and needs with india's difficulties and offerings. I had a hard time with that last year, but will do better next time. Respect. Keep blogging although there'r many other things to do and:
Happy Birthday from Salzburg!
