A Week in the Western World
I am coming to the western world for the second time. I landed into the country of USA last Sunday. Some of the stuffs I have seen as a good difference between India is :
- You won’t get some water with your food by food. People prefer only soft drinks over food.
- People work on time and are very punctual on Official conferences.
- Most food served has some greens mixed with it.
- Every food they call as small is of the kind what two people eat in India. A peg of scotch on the Rocks came with a double.
- Every one you see greets you here. But I don’t see people moving closer on the longer run. You don’t say every one hello in India. But whoever you say you care for them atleast a little. India too is changing…
- Every Taxi has a meter and they run by it.
- It was so great to walk on the road with the wonderful weather, But there will be no one around you when you reach some point on the road. You can see only Cars flying.
Life is interesting here too in a different sense.

ya…i do agree to one point, people say Hello BUT becoz they “HAVE TO!”
why have to?
(interesting question…)
I think that might be trend, and even if you see in India, people living in metro’s behave too like that way…
and i personally feel, life is becoming more and more virtual…means you say something really cool, good, so sweet and …..but truly saying, you even do NOT actually want it…or i must say bear it for more then some little time!
