I thought I would share with you a few little bits of information and things I have come across whilst here that I like to sum up as the Indian way....
1. Driving along the highway the other day I looked to my left out the car window to see an elephant walking next to our car in peak hour traffic. Defiantly not something you would see on the road in Australia.
2. A friend showed me a photo she had taken here of a local fire hydrant. It consisted of a row of red empty buckets against a wall that had the word "fire" written on it
3. Service is the best anywhere in the world. From getting asked at least 3 times a day from different managers at the hotel whether everything is ok to a local person on the street giving directions when lost. Indian people will bend over backyards to help you anyway they can.
4. India would have to have the lowest stress related illnesses. Everybody goes about there day so slowly and calmly. This is can be very frustrating at times but it's also something we can maybe learn from. I was once told by an Indian man here that people have a saying they live by, it's "what will be, will be" it seems very fitting given my situation at the moment - doesn't it?
