It has been quite long since my last update. Im writing this one at 3am after drinking red bull, which doesnt allow me to go to sleep... :) What was I thinking? :D
New Delhi is a very interesting place... In just few minutes or nearly seconds you can see and breath the same air with the lowest cast Indians but also with one of the richest Indians in India. The changing differences are so drastic that it might hit you in your face few times if you are not ready for it...
One example: The Select City Walk or for locals shortly just SAKET mall is one of the best malls in whole India. It is located in South part of Delhi and you can find the most expensive brands in here. Actually shopping here is more expensive then in same malls in Europe. The only HARD ROCK CAFE is located in this mall and Im working in this mall by coincidence. :)
Its not just about the mall inside, but also about the surroundings. It is magnificent!!! Palm trees, ponds, water falls, grass that Masters could be played on it. BUT just make one step outside of this fenced property and dirty, sick kids would run at you, begging for the money. Its a upside-down world, where you are meeting the Indian Bill Gates in one minute and in the other, you are facing a family, that hasn´t eaten for weeks.
The last few days were pretty hot in here... The temperature and humidity is unbearable, but show must go on and life never stops here.
Im having a day off tomorrow, hoping to get to see the Lotus temple, which is located nearby. Im so bad in taking pictures, but after tomorrows sightseeing I will upload some for sure...
Delhi is a place full of interesting buildings, temples and monuments and its almost impossible to visit them all... but I will try to do my best and try to keep showing you my little steps through amazing India and incredible New Delhi...
Tip of the day: When you are taking auto rickshaw, make sure that you have a scarf with you. The pollution is so high in here that you would not like to see what you are breathing... Scarf around your nose and mouth doesn´t seem to make a big difference, but trust me, it does... and also sun glasses to avoid dust bursting into your eyes is a pretty good idea also.. ;)
