Only a few days ago I was watching Netflix in my bed. It feels like we have been away forever. My adventures in Kolkata couldn't be more different from New Zealand but I wouldn't have it any other way. Venturing out and walking the streets is something I will never forget. Absolute chaos. This is the only possible way I could describe it. Back in New Zealand someone tooting their car horn would draw a lot of attention but here you can't find a time were no horn is going off. This is obviously only one of many differences the two counties have. I feel very privileged to experience this trip from my own two eyes.
The people here are awesome. Everyone is either really friendly or wants you to buy something from their shop. Either way it's all an experience. Meeting the Jungle Crow rugby players yesterday and spending a full day with just them and us today has been the highlight of my adventure so far. The ability to get along with these people so fluently from beyond opposite upbringings is awesome. It made me realise that at the end of the day we aren't very different from these people at all. The conversations we had and the ability to both find humour in the same jokes is something I will always remember.
