We are big family ;)))

So I will tell you a little about our trainee house, about our home ;))) It is so cool that all interns live together, because we can share with each other about our emotions (good or bad), and of course sometimes all of us has some problems at work, with AIESEC Kolkata... so we can rely on each other ;))) And the coolest thing is that we enjoy spending tome together ;))) We like making some lunch and dinners on the roof of our trainee house ;))) this is so nice that we live in big house, we have roof and can make parties upstairs ;)))) Actually we have two trainee houses, I have never been in other trainee house in New Ali poor - trainees flats, other guys live there ;))) here I will tell you about our trainee house in Tollygunge ;)))
On this photo we gathered together and were watching Bollywood movie, it was very funny one, very predictable in the beginning and very complicated in the end... ;))) it was nice evening ;)))
The last morning with Bruce ;))) mmmm, he is so nice guy ;))) miss him everyday...

Our small Russian-Chinese family ;)))
Once, we had day off because of strike in Kolkata and we decided to make a lunch ;))) I prepared staffed papers and salad, Larisa helped me in this ;)))

Diamond harbour, only 40 km from Kolkata and such a difference...

So as usually it happens I have plans for my the only one day off ;)) So this time I planed to go somewhere out of the city, out of Kolkata. I found out from my Atlas of India (small book with all important destination of India with detailed maps) that there are 2 places near Kolkata, which are only 35-40 km from the city (Diamond Harbour and Churunchura). So we decided to go to Diamond Harbour, I was attracted by the name of destination. ;))) But actually it wasn't something special. We went there by the bus from the Esplanade bus station. It took us 2,5 hours to get to this village or town, don't know how to describe it better. There were a lot of people, all of them didn't speak English at all, so it was difficult to find something. First we were very confused cause only 40 km from Kolkata and such a difference... ;)) but then we was walking found some nice places like Temples and river side is really nice... And also we liked that it was very calm there in comparison to Kolkata ;))) but people....oh, they are so wild, it was difficult to stand their curiosity to us... They were always staring at us, it was not nice at all, cause they didn't smile at us or something, but were very serious and even looked angry, so it almost spoiled our trip, but this city had good people of course, who were nice to us, smiled, waved, spoke English...so it is was not so bad ;)))) We were tired after, but it worth visiting ;)))
This first that we saw when we came to this village, some doll, may be it was God...
This is market, where we bought some fruits



This Temple that we found in this village, it is really nice and peaceful place
This cow was extremely nice to us ;))))







God of Durga Pudga...

River side, river Ganga...
This the main type of transport in those village, everywhere we saw only that
This guy asked me to take a photo of him ;))) look at him, he is like model ;))) hehhe

We were very brave and decided to have a lunch in one place, it was the best choose that we could make... This photo about how dirty water was which they offered for free... Bottle with normal water was mine I placed it there in order to show the difference ;))))
This our lunch... Rice and vegetables, we also could take some fish or sea food but we deiced not to risk so much... ;)))

This woman was preparing the food ;))) she was very cute, smiled all the time and then were happy that I decided to take a photo of her ;))

This couple are very nice...it is good that they didn't shy to show their attitude to each other in public, cause a lot of couple in India, as I understood, are very shy, and it is not allowed for couples to keep each others hands... strange... but at the same time it is ok when guys hold each other and keep each others hands...hmmm, something wrong with this logic, right? So I like this photo cause I am happy to see such normal couples!!! ;)))
with ice-cream man ;)))))

this is swamp
Typical houses in this village
I like this boy ;))) so cute ;))
he was very afraid of my idea to take a photo, but then was ok ;)))

with other villagers ;))




Preparations to the biggest festival Durga Puja ;))) this will be small temples ;))
hkhkh.... you can guess what is it... it is for houses...
Fishermen...

oh, we wanted to have a river excursion by boat... but we didn't manage cause there were all the time a lot people and as usually everything was tooooo slowly...

Our way back, it is in the bus.... a lot people, hot... Trip was tiring...

and at last we were home, in Kolkata... this is field near Victoria Memorial... very beautiful sunset...
