Driving in the monsoon rains
I know that given the weather in Europe this year, it would not be welcome of me to complain about the rains here (all the most since it is still 28 degrees outside!).
But see, this afternoon I opened my car and there was 2 centimers of water on the floor! And then half of the roads were blocked because of floods - and this, my GPS (this idiot!) doesn't detect it yet!! I also banged a car, like a big accident. It was a combination of factors like we say: a moron who didn't know how to drive, my foot that slipped in my Crocs (I had to take on me to wear again these ugly shoes, quite practical in the rains) and a moment of distraction where I couldn't remember which pedal was the break! I don't know how but not even a scratch...
Here is how it looks (with a music I find quite adapted ;) ):

My daily life in Mumbai - Walking back from work on the beach
After playing Mario Kart in the morning I decided to be Super Mario and walk back from work by the beach…
It was a good opportunity to try my new Gopro video camera! Ok there is a (very) big scope for improvement but it gives an idea of what a trip it was!
With the soccer balls, cricket balls, dead dogs, crapping men, breed dogs, joggers, people starting at me, the bridge of trash and to finish crossing the slum with two weddings… But there was a beautiful sunset!
I have to say that day it was particularly tough man… With a horrendous smell all the way on top of everything…

My daily life in Mumbai - The morning rickshaw ride
So here's how it starts: with a 10 minute rickshaw ride (sometimes I drive my car also, when I am well awake and have the courage to go play Mario Kart TV reality style – being well awake has its importance here, because otherwise I have to work my way through the crowd with my mirrors and somehow people don’t seem so happy about that...):
