Vacation :D
Like most of you know (If any… ), I am on a vacation. The first vacation in over 4 years. I did visit India 2 years back but the free time then was mainly used to get my Web Empire and business running. But this time its different….
Very much against my folk’s will, I was off to Goa in the first week. I had been to Goa once before. I had my friend pick me up from the station. He recently bought a place in Goa and hence we had our staying all figured out. One very hospitable family I must say. We drank and drank and drank and drank and drank…. ( I think you get the point… ) . The only time I remember drinking water is while taking my medicines. Fuck, Goa was fun !
I did take this opportunity to go see my ‘ex’ who lives in Banglore, which is 11 hours by road from Goa. What I thought would be a happy Reunion turned into a very complex give and take of emotional drama and BS. No regrets. I also met a series of old friends and their hot cousins. The city is pretty decent with a ideal weather. The trip was worth it at the end.
I was also taken Gujrat for some property matters. Our first stop was ‘Valsad’ which is a small town close to Mumbai in Gujrat. Its funny how urbanization has lead to rapid economic growth. People have a lot of money and property prices are booming even in this small town. Then we headed ‘Surat’ which can be called the informal financial capital of Gujrat. The place is booming. People have made a lot of money in a very short span of time. The thing about people from Surat are they are very aggressive when it comes to business and all game when it comes to have fun. I also headed to Damman which is like Goa of Gujrat, all the people from Gujrat go to Damman to drink because Gujrat is a dry state. It a lot like Goa but with a lot of Gujjus and only Indian Alcohol. Not bad.
I did learn one thing during the trip, money alone can not make you happy. The people around you also play a important role. Spending the money on or with the people you care about is much more fulfilling. When you have people who are there with you just for your company and want nothing in return, keep them close ! These are the most valuable assets you will have!
I’d also be blogging much more often ( Like I always Promise…) and will be starting a new section on the site called ‘Words Of Wisdom’. I’ll also make a point to stop ranting and talk more about Dubai 😀
To Good Life
Cheers 😀
