Getting used to India)))

I am in India almost 2 weeks))) amazing))) how fast time pasts)))
Sometimes I can't believe that I am in India... and I realize it only when I see around me a lot of Indian people, women in saris, rickshaws, crazy taxi drivers... haha it is funny)))

It is really difficult to get used to some things... that is why you just have to accept it and don't react on it, just know that it is and that is all. It is about people also))) Before coming to India I didn't know that it would be like that))) For example the difference between people is so big. Some people are European looking and their behavior like that, but a lot people they look at the foreigners like they have never seen them before... It is funny but let me explain it)))

My friend Natasha is also in her internship in Sri Lanka and today I got a letter from her and she describes the same feelings about people, how they look at tourist, so to say 'white people'.)))
She came in Sri Lanka one months earlier then me. So she wrote that at first it was funny that all the people looked at her and other foreigner so attentively))) after two weeks she was really irritated by it and wanted to ask them 'why are you looking at me?? I am the same like you guys!!!" And in one moths she doesn't care about it at all)))

So I am at the second stage of getting used to India, to people, some things))) I am irritating by it))) I am really sorry about it, but I am))) Because some people they don't just look at you, they stare at you and you don't know what to think about it, what did you do wrong or what??!!! And these weekend I even asked one couple "what??? what are you looking at ???" haha it is funny for me now))) but don't know I was so angry at them))) hahah

But as I understand all interns here have such emotions first and then they get used to it))) so I am normal and it is just level of getting used to it))) hehe

So please if you really plan to come to India be prepared that it quite different people here (they are nice, majority of them and a lot of them are so nice and friendly, ready to help you, but anyway they are differ from you), traditions, conditions, level of living and other staff))) Be prepared to learn something new and quite different))) I mean just not to have illusions about India in order not to be disappointed with this interesting country. Otherwise you will not be ready to accept it like it is...

As I see I was ready for these internship to India even without preparations, I mean without reading different books about India, articles and videos, I didn't prepare in it at all, but I just felt that I wanted to come here))) but anyway I can't stop wondering about everything whether it is good or sometimes negative experience))) But it is worth it))) don't be scared)))

Listen to yourself)))
