Nothing is incompatible

India is everything you imagine but mostly it is what you don't, you learn very fast that beauty doesn't exclude chaos, that difficulties don't prevent people from smiling, than a hot humid day doesn't allow you to be in a bad mood, it is the random act of kindness in the subway of the young man who gladly leave his place to someone else. It is certainly life at a different level, it is a life that has not forget its humanity! My first approach to India was from the flight from Moscow to Delhi, this Sikh man totally polite and gentle asked me if putting a mask over the eyes was some religious ritual or it was for meditation. I answered that it was just to block the light and get some rest, he was clearly disappointed, so I felt like adding "I guess it is good for meditation too". Practicalities of life have to take a spiritual dimension and need to find a place in a ritual. From the time we stepped into this country it has been a serious of gentleness, even from the driver that waited for us two hours as the plane was late. Our recommended Bed and Breakfast owner become instant adviser/protector of our whereabouts in Delhi. Oh my... it is always so easy to get used to good things! We are also being diligent tourists, however it is not the monuments that impress you, it is the people, the colors of the saris and the women of all ages and wearing with such elegance. I might add the Indian traditional men clothing are very distinguished too! I am starting my love story with this country
