It's my first trip to US. I never intended to move out of India reason being i always felt that i wont be comfortable in any other country.. After All India is my country, country where grew up.. studied.. where i can at least fly to my native place meet my parents.. meet my friends....any time i felt like going. Get relaxed .. smell that beautiful fragrance of soil rather i would say a sooth feeling of soil in my village..after hectic work schedule and fast metro life. Trust me village is the coolest place i love to live... all peace .. no disturbance.. all people gathering in night after dinner.. gossips.. and all... but now it is changing and that way at times i feel sad as i will be missing all of these sooner or later..
Any ways.. as I was a novice(in traveling to abroad)... and on TOP was traveling alone, was give tips... instructions from my friends.. and relatives...At one point i felt like if given an opportunity i would go ahead and cancel the trip.. but it was all official.. i had to go.. was left with no choice.
I started from Pune .. heading towards Mumbai to catch the flight... i smoke and drink..hence was adviced from my friends.. to take drinks once i board in. .reason being .. it was a long journey.. and perhaps would help me in getting some sleep.
While i was heading from Pune towards Mumbai by cab.... once the cab entered Navi-Mumbai.... i started taking some BEERS,the time I entered Air Port for security check and other formalities..i was in a pretty good mood. I was supposed to reach airport 3 hours before flight take off as per the travel rule for international flights.... I was roaming inside airport.. visualizing people from different parts of world .Inside airport one could hardly figure out if it was night or day time...fancy lights.. people moving here and there .. coffee shops.. bars.. duty free shops for liquors all open eagerly waiting to make a hole in you pocket....
After some time as I was getting bored my cell phone ran out of battery ...I started looking for smoking zone .. but as expected there was no such place.. slowly these hours started killing me.. i had nothing to do.. I did had a laptop..but i had no intentions of operating it.... finally after 2 hours I boarded the flight. It was about 8 hours fly to Europe.. I was flying to Miami via Brussels(Belgium).
