here I am!!!

miei cari, i am hiding in an internet shop here in Mysore because it's hot like hell outside (toooooooo bad really, considering that when i left germany it was snowing, ohhhh, i am sooooooo unlucky).
Anyway, so far everything is ok, i haven't been illegally ;) robbed and the city is fantastic. Little considerations on the trip so far:
- next time i study a bit more, today the poor guide in the maharaja's palace tried to explain to me all the different stories of the never ending indian gods (because not only there are tons of them but they also re-incarnate!!) and i was staring at him like a un-holy cow watching the train go by.
- snapple!!!!!!!
- pineapple juice is oh so tasty.
- screw the naan, i want more paratha!!!
- 1st class in trains looks too familiar to the regionali in italy, apart from the absence of crowd because it's too expensive and to the working AC (oh yes!). I can say that i had the experience but honestly i thought it would be better. Please, indian minister of transportation, clean the freaking windows!!!!!!
- indian police stole a lighter from me, but i had another one hidden. Alba 2: Indian airport police 1
- in Goa there were tons of stray dogs.
- in Bangalore there were tons of stray people trying to get the train, or spleeping in the train station, or eating in the train station, or bothering me in the train station while drunk, or kicking the ass of the drunk guy off me.
- queues are random
- at the beginning i tought drivers were crazy, now i start understanding the way they drive. Hope it's not a side effect of insolation.
- people here in the south smoke the same shitty tasting small brownish cigarettes with a little purple rope at the end that my freak piano teacher used to smoke.
- people can sleep everywhere
- rickshaw are the best form of transportation on the ground
- kingfisher airline is so cool it's nearly unbelievable

ok, now i go to the market and then i'll try not to get ripped off by the taxi guy.
ciaoooooooo
