Incredible India
It's day two of Indiaaaa and I'm all wired up with 10 GB of data on my phone :)
India is beautiful, but at the same time while just walking the streets I can see why it' gini coefficient is so high. The place where I'm staying is quite ... quiet, in the sense that it's facing a main road so in terms of things to do there's not much on my plate. I have to walk quite far out to the neighbourhood behind (about 5 minutes) if I need groceries or anything.
Monsoon season is coming, it rained really heavily yesterday and we were caught like deer in the headlights without an umbrella. The streets are just ... overwhelming. I watch people crossing the road #likeaboss whereby they just walk and expect cars to slow down for them. I wonder what if the cars don't stop and a life is lost? But the sad reality is that there are just so many people in India. Does one more life make a difference? The number of beggars on the streets, the poverty, the suffering. Why? Why doesn't anyone do anything about it?
Makes me wonder many many things. Thankful for this opportunity to be here because it definitely makes me more grateful for all that I have at home. Friends, family, rights, the ability to go out and wander the streets on my own is such a privilege.
Looking forward to starting work tmr :)
