Delightful Encounters

Watched a documentary yesterday named "Build it Bigger" on restructuring of Mumbai Airport and felt wowwww.. and suddenly recollected the face of my husband when I had said to him within first few days of my arrival that "I feel Brussels is just analogous to Mumbai!!" :) 

Oops....He had felt that his whole reasons of showing me new areas of this world have gone wasted.. :P But how could I react better??.. I love my country... ;)

But no.. rather yes.. I was little wrong.. 

This place is far better in terms of its developments.. (yeah I know that you know it! But ultimately living the read/heard/watched life is always different!) 

You get down your apartment, and you will see hardly few people on street unless its a shopping street :P  You walk a small distance and see either a bus stop or a tram station or a metro station or taxis ready to take wherever you want (and yess very easily without "dhakkabukki"!) You wanna cross the road, just follow the lights(red/green) and if you don't follow them the drivers will follow their senses for sure! There are no ticket windows for anything.. You have a card(prepaid card) and you just have to punch it..so no queues no quarrels.. You enter metro station and can see a board of which metro is where and in how minutes she will come for you..(and the next one is within max 5 minutes(and they are always 60*5 seconds)).. :) You enter the metro and will be pushed backward with a frictional force as she runs(speed!!). and you wont get to your actual position until the next station is reached.. :P  

This all really makes the place relaxing as you have no worries(outside your home!!;P) like reaching safe, driving carefully, attain things on time..etc.. :)

I wonder.. a control on population can make miracles!! isn't it?

But I must tell you.. people and their emotions and behaviors is something which is very much same everywhere.. I saw school going children with same innocence on their face, Mom n Dads with their babies with same affection, a group of friends with same fun and teasing attitudes! Few following fashions, few looking at them and gossiping.. :P, Few looking at us as out-comers and few trying to make us comfortable by talking different language yet smiling face. And that's human nature.. :)

This whole set of mixed feelings and new culture is forcing me to enjoy this place... and I surely will...

Guess.. I am going for my french classes from tomorrow.. so doesn't that mean that I have already started enjoying ?? :)

Yeahh.. looking forward for this new venture.. ;)

Wish me luck...

and keep reading... :)
