Eastern Trip: Couchy Bangalore IN

As I said before, Bangalore is worth the trouble for the density of great and different people you can meet. I could even find a wonderful couch: at Pragyan and Mohan's. Pragyan, who has lived, for years, in the French speaking part of Africa, could only speak French for cooking (thanks to her maid) and for directions (thanks to her driver)! ;-) The really fun part is she, as an Indian lady living in Bangalore, has more extroverted clothing taste than me. Emancipated women were in town! The bar counter still remembers our dancing heels ;-) This blog being not 18 restricted, no compromising photos will be shown. Hehe! Beside that, I was staying at the highest building in Blore, 32 floors, helipad at the top, Wifi, washing machine, hot water shower, a wonderful cook to teach me how to make ragi dosa (dosa = Indian crêpes or pancakes, eaten along with fried vegetables), ragi huri hittu ladu (dessert en forme de boule, ici à base de roasted ragi), and, of course 2 cool hosts I enjoyed spending time with! Thank you guys :-). I hardly went to office, I could work at "home" and appreciate the view at the same time! Hehe!

In the Green Path hotel were staying a group of American and Indian students working on entrepreneurial social development projects in India. At the end of a hard working week, each group presented its project: mobile toilets for slums, school bags which can be transformed into a studying chair, recycling water with an easy technique: connecting the washing machine to the toilet, bicycles renting in the city (Vélov, Vélib), biogas in the Green Path hotel and neighbourings, and many more ideas. Bien bien de faire plancher ces petits jeunes ! Afin de trouver des bonnes idées, économiques et réalisables pour une société indienne avide de solutions pour ses problèmes à dimension de subcontinent ! :-/
