Safety

Today was reading that EC wanna make higher standarts for car safety in europe...while in india...last week i had a small discussion with my colleagues at the office explaining what is Air Bag in the car, how does it work :)

One more good example. In Europe and US it's mandatory to have baby chair in a car...while in india is perfectly fine to bring babies on a bike, together with another 3 ppl

different standarts

football madness


I remember when summer, 2 years back in BXL everybody was going crazy...football world cup ( i guess) was happening and since the city, colleagues at the office and my friends group was multinational- so every night was loud celebrations, and silet sadness. Remember Italians winning- then all italian colleagues brought cakes to the office to celebrate:)
now it's seems there is the same madness in europe...but im safe and far away in inida:) just see friends facebook status meassages changing:)

after something old, something new has come


Life in india keeps me busy. These days Im mostly occupied with my work, and less with a social life. Remember talking to my friends and almost betting that Sex&The City movie wont be shown in India. Loreta was even ready to send me dvd to india:) Thanks to globalization and open minded tamil nadu- the movie is here. last week i went to see it. What can i say- movie is not thaaaaaaaaaat great, but i had a good time watching it...probably because it was continuation of old and well know story, and second reason- im stucked in india and this not that great movie brings nice and good emotions about " the other" world.
On the way back to social life

Discussion about sending our troops to Iraq? Leo LT? Eurovision song contest? ( well, our participant was very much not indian style...)....so, the piece of news was- babies crawling competition in Lithuania last weekend!!!!!
