Today I had worked the whole day long (10 hours) on a public holiday and I was really exhausted when I had returned home. :/ After I had taken a shower I got to know some very nice Indian guys (7 actually) Radhar, Gogne, Vamar, Sahib, Anno, Ravi and Jamal, who are also staying at this hostel and I have learned a lot about Indian culture and tradition. They let me try three different meals (they cooked them for me and were very happy about it). They were so friendly and happy, it was just amazing. One time two of them had an argument about a different view on women.
One of the others intervened saying that both of them were right and he succeeded to smooth out the differences. Then they all were friends again. When I asked the troubleshooter, if they always do it like that in India, he agreed.
That was really very impressive and amazing, an Indian way of dispute. I had a lot of fun with these guys, and they invited me to their homes, families and friends, if I will come to India one day.
I think it was the best and most interesting Easter I’ve ever had: drinking Lassi (Indian yoghurt-drink, I’ve got the recipe now
), eating only with my right hand (it’s their culture to eat like that, and honestly, it made me feel happy to eat like that, you feel the food, the temperature and the structure of it
) and taking crazy pictures. ![]()
Everybody of them wanted a picture of him with me on his side so it took us a while to finish the process of photographing. ![]()
