Neoka's Song

When everything is in harmony, there is no chaos. When the world chants, we listen. When the birds sing, spring rises. When the winds blow, we feel the rhythm move us... Life is a song, and I intend to share it with you.

Jumpin in the Indus

No, I didnt actually jump in the Indus, nor will I. But am considering it. Being a Gora (white person) in this beautiful country sure is interesting, if it isnt random stares, its hijras flirting with me, or prices doubling as soon as i walk in the room. Its also suposed not being served food! last night the waiter didnt bring mine of all ppls food! I laugh about it now, but damn was I hungry, poor Puneet Delia and Emad for having to put up with my crankiness from lack of food.
But never fret, dominos saved the day!

Actually, it was the server, he screwed up on all our orders, it was just funny that the Gora was the one not to get served. :)

Well house hunting is fun, we found a great place thats 5min walk away from the office. And the Office has A/C yea!!

InshaAllah, we will move in this week before Joanna from Sweden arrives to complete us (team)
