Indian Samurai इंडियन सामुराई

You know you have been living in India for a very long time when... 

You insist your colleague organise yoga classes in the office.  

You go to the yoga class on a Friday evening – not just any Friday, it is a closing day (for my sales). But you go anyway because you need to do a little exercise and to relax: in the past two days, despite the jet lag and a huge work load inherited from a week of business travelling in Europe, you have had to spend 8 hours in the car to encourage your teams in the warehouse located in the freaking suburbs.  

But today is a closing day and you have a professional conscience so you keep your blackberry within reach. 

So you know that you have been living for a very long time in India when at 7 pm on a Friday evening you are on all fours on your office floor (in the "cow" position for yogics), the phone stuck to your ear and you negotiate a last minute promotion (and this slightly edgy bargaining continues in other exotic positions...).

Starting June 14th, I am going to click and upload everyday a picture of my life in India!

I don't guarantee the quality of the images (which will be clicked with my phone) nor their interest ;)

It's here: PHOTOBLOG

There are days I feel incredibly lucky. Especially when the winter is not ending in France and I get to have lunch by the pool and then evening drinks by the sea... Then I think tough life!!

Unfortunately life is not only about sea and sun ;) Otherwise it would be too easy...

Happy Hour at the Novotel, Juhu

 For instance now the rains (monsoon) have come... The sky is white, it rains and it smells of urine...
