The flight's at 6:25 PM and I was on my way to the airport. It was my first flight journey and I can feel the enthusiasm and fear inside my stomach. I had never been to mumbai and all through my travel to the airport, thoughts and plans prevailed in my mind as to how I am going to pass the three days in a big city where I am not much used to the language and culture.
I got down from the taxi and reached airport when all of a sudden I got a call from my project manager. Is he calling me back because of some defect in my module ? Is he going to cancel my trip?
PM : Karthik, are you in the airport ?
Me : yes
PM : okie. You are going to travel to colombia.Give me your passport number.
Me : me ? well..actually..
PM : no second thoughts. Its a very big project and great oppurtunity..blah..blah..blah..
And finally I boarded the flight. And for the next three days, thoughts and plans prevailed my mind as to how I am going to pass the days in a remote unknown country where I was never used to the language and the culture.
