Picked up from ma lovely hotel at 6:30am. Manage to get some brek before it’s open. Walk the entire airport trying to see what I can get for 3 dirhams. Settle for 2 packs of mentos. Depart Dubai at 9:50am. So long Dub 😪.
Bit of cheeky extra leg room on the plane 👌🏼
4pm arrive in Dehli. Picked up by a ‘can for women, by women’. Constant beeping on the roads. You should probably expect to be ignored as the beep has just been degraded.
A four lane road is somehow turned into five. Cars and bikes everywhere and there is a man strolling through it trying to sell coconut and one with a feather duster.
Arrive at my hotel. Can’t communicate. Room/bathroom is disgusting. Want to cry.
Walk to the metro. Struggle to buy a ticket. Can’t see the picture of the route my m8 sent me as I don’t have WiFi so no idea where I’m going. No one understands me so no help. Want to cry. Everyone is staring at me on the train, small child is pointing. Get off the train praying it is the right station 🙏🏼 it is not. Ask some guy to call Sounak to find out where I am. Go another 4 stops. Was supposed to meet him at 5:30pm, it is now 7pm. But I’ve finally made it.
Uber to his apartment. It’s tiny. Made me a v nice dinner- paneer ‘Sounak special’. Went for a lil walk around the neighbourhood. V quiet, just a few strays and security guards about. Had some baileys and then ordered an Uber. How we made it back without colliding with something I do not know. Not the most relaxing journey but a 40 minute car ride for £1.98!!
1am time for some long overdue sleep 😴

I take it the roads and traffic are a bit different from what you’re used to there then? Hope you enjoy India, seems like you can’t switch off for a minute there with all that’s going on 🙂
