Incredible India

Av Pelle - 27 januari 2009 16:42

That's the catchy slogan they use everywhere here and Yes, it's from many aspects incredible. Organized chaos. It normally takes me a couple of days to mentally adjust to the lack of structure and to cope with my patience due to lots of waiting and questionable promises that seldom are fullfilled. Always with an attached explanation, starting like Sorry Sorry Sir, but ... bla bla bla. They always have a friendly attitude, so it's OK. Sometimes it just feels like they are to many persons involved in doing rather basic things, that actually quite often not really are needed at all. Still they manage to look very important and irreplaceable.

Bangalore being the IT world capital of low cost sourcing is an amazing place with very strong IT competencies & capacity, but with a really poor city infrastructure (roads etc). The new airport was a nice experience though. Regardless of all the practicalities, I admire & respect the Indian people, who are so ambitious and opportunity minded.

Instead of spending all the time here in the office, hotel & traffic jam, I would prefer to go out in the wilderness. 2 years ago, we were trying to spot tigers in the Banjipur National Park. That was very exciting. Only managed to find fresh paw prints, but we could feel their presence in the air. All other animals and birds behave odd when there's a tiger around. Shere Khan.

By the way, I have a mosquito in my hotel room now. Need to do some hunting.

Ready to hit the ski tracks tomorrow morning. The temperature is perfect, around -10 to -5 degrees. We have tried the tracks up around Smågan this afternoon and it's fabulous conditions. Now we are hoping for a day tomorrow without any snowfall. ...

Yes, the flu has left my system. It has really helped to empty my body from all kind of energy reserves the last 4-5 days. If I remember correct according to some old body charging theories, it's good to clean out and empty your body, before star...

Time is flying in supersonic speed, so it's good to reflect back now and then, to get a picture of what's happening in life. That's why I now and then take a glimse back in some files to check what was going on the year or years before at...
