Indian Samurai इंडियन सामुराई

It is now official, I have left Mumbai… A chapter that closed… For a new one to open in… Delhi!

My cat flew in, my cartons arrived on time and here we go!

No regrets, even no tears: I really enjoyed this city in the last three years, did everything I wanted to (have drinks watching the sea, go knee down in the water for Ganapati festival, walk under the monsoon rain, visit Dharavi slum, act in ads, get initiated to yoga, give up yoga, take Hindi classes, go to local theatres to see Hindi movies, and many other merry local activities)…
I will miss my (few but) very very dear friends. But I will finally be with my favourite Indian!

I stay in the same company, and I add an activity which should bring a lot of challenges ;)
I indeed was warned against Delhi and the North-Indians (there is some kind of animosity between Mumbai and Delhi) but so far so good. Except that I am cold!! So cold…

To turn the page, a photo and some videos:

In Bandra, easy going...

A last drink in Juhu, with a French background music!!

View from the rickshaw of the Khar village that I used to cross every day, and with a wedding!

Un chauffeur de rickshaw qui chante son amour pour Jésus!

The other day I dragged my friend on Reclamation (Bandra West) fly-over to take pictures of the snaps…
I have been on this fly-over God knows how many times (and for how long, since there is always a lot of traffic on that bridge), every time thinking that I wanted to take pictures. So I finally did it…
