9. I fasted on the first day of Navratri (Indian festival of the week).
8. I wear a black bindhi every day (although it comes off within like 7 minutes).
7. I eat Indian food for breakfast (no, I don't mean India's version of eggs).
6. I threw trash in the backyard (sad, I know...but it had been sitting in my room for 2.5 weeks cus I didn't know what to do with it!) .
5. I have perfected the head nod (in between a "yes" and a "no")
4. I washed my own clothes today...by hand.
3. I carry a handkerchief, mase, toilet paper, hand sanitizer, immodium and mosquito repellent with me at ALL times.
2. I'm addicted to Lays "Magic Masala" flavored chips and Gems (India's version of M&Ms).
1. I am contemplating buying gold...

Pooja! I love your top 10--Jaime also gave me the scoop, but it sounds like India has started off well! I miss you can't wait to read more about your adventures in the motherland!

there's a store in munich called "GOLD & INTERNET". perhaps you could use their internet cafe options while buying your gold. ps - heart you.
After spending just two days in Delhi, we have either seen or experienced most of your top 10 ourselves. I love the list! And that I can relate :) And wish I was seeing you. kiss kiss.
Aw, Pooj. Sounds like you're having a great time in the motherland! I just booked my flight to Dar es Salaam (as in Tanzania). THREE WEEKS IN AFRICA IN FEBRUARY! wat wat?
all about the immodium. a'bad says what up.
Hi Pooja, this post is eye-opening! I can only imagine how different life must be from America. It's really cool to read up on your adventures in India. Love the pic of you on the scooter! Anyway, hope you're doing well. Cheers, Iz
