Beautiful India...




One wouldnt think that the two words can belong together. From a western viewpoint, one thinks of a "third world country" as ugly and backwards. BUT, people from Europe and the the USA see things differently. Goa (the land my ancestors hail from) is flooded with Germans, French, Brits and Russians. Locals feel as if there are too many of them buying the place up. Americans on the other hand tend to look at South America and western Europe as "foreign" and forget that the rest of the world exists. This world is a beautiful place and filled with diversity. India is diverse in itself. In all the times I have been there, I have realized that the place is beautiful in its own way. The moments I have had there were unforgetable, yet unexplainable. India is magical. As opposed to stereotypes of Indians, the culture is beautiful in itself and the concept of "family" the most of the world should learn from.

Anyway, before I go further, watch this movie.

The movie is about an American who goes to India to train people for a call center. While he is there, he experiences a lot he never thought he would. The movie is called "Outsourced".
