The Indian Trip : New Delhi

There are places you like instantly. And others you hate very quickly ! I disliked New Delhi a lot.

I didn't like Connaught Place, the indian Oxford Street where super expensive shops lay beside the highest misery. I didn't like the metro where people nearly step on one another. I didn't like the begging children who caught my arm while I was buying my metro token. I didn't like queueing for the metal detectors in the metro although it's completely inefficient. I didn't like getting hit by a motorbike while I was crossing the street (thankfully nothing bad happened) because of the traffic chaos. I didn't like how foreigners are targeted by untrustworthy travel agencies. I didn't like how there was no party at all for New Year's Eve !

Fortunately I met cool people in a bar-restaurant that was closing at midnight !

Anyway, I left earlier than planned.
