Banglore or Bust

After a quick 2.4 months of waiting I am getting to head to Bangalore in search of deals on computer parts. Mentally you know that in India things take longer do ……anything. It is not until you try to accomplish something that you realize how long it takes. The desire for simple shopping experience is longed for, greatly.

So I am heading 8 hours away by train to check prices. Now many of you may say, “Hey why don’t you just call them up or send them an email.” That is what I would do if I were working in a business system of government-enforced trust. That is missing here. So handholding and you have to check everything yourself. Most my energy is spent playing stupid games and little business takes place.

The games are the reason I don’t get out much. I prefer the slow relaxed atmosphere of where I am. There is work to be done but you don’t have to waste time playing games. You don’t have think that every stranger that talks to you wants something. It’s the little things in life….

So I should go hop on a train now. Hello to all that find this posting.
