April 11

I have arrived, during the flight I’ve read one phrase:

When I first visited India, I was stunned by the richness of the land, by it lush beauty and exotic architecture , by its ability to overload he senses with the pure, concentrated intensity of its colors, smells, tastes and sounds. It was as if all my life I had been seeing world in black and white and, when brought face to face with India, experiencing everything re-rendered…

- Keith Bellows, National Georgraphic Traveller

I do not think we will go anywhere else except Mumbai, though we will not see all the richness.

The first… no… the great impression, when go out from the airport, you are colliding with the crowd of hundreds of people, temperature from air condition +17 is chanted to +35, outlaw traffic and Indian smell. It is very hard to describe it with words.

There are only two places which are usual for europeans, well for all western people. Let’s name them used civilized. Airport and hotel.

Used civilization image is over, the things you see between the Mumbai Airport and Hotel, you will not see them anywhere in Europe. India has its own smell, air is full of smell.
Mumbai urban roads can shock any european, where else can you see on the road rickshaws, few cows, a lot of people sleeping near…
