1 Week Old
Am a week old in United States. So far so good. Everything out here is different from what is back there in india. Culture, People, Life and u take anything it gonna be different in someway or the other.
What i did most this week is travelling. New York - New Jersey - Philly. Then daily commuting to Malvern (this is the place where my office is located). i travelled around 350 miles. not too bad right?;)
Roads are too good out here. Traffic is very much oraganized. People follow traffic rules. And that makes everything perfect and less chaotic. Another thing i noticed is that traffic signs makes a lot of sense (unless you do not know to read them). People are totally dependent on the traffic signs as you don't find people on roads to ask directions especially on highways. You if u want to go to a particular place...u get the driving direction from internet and drive down following the traffic signs.
Haven't started official work in full swing. so it was good this week. Also i havn't got my laptop yet. it seems that they have just placed an order for a new one. Hoping to get it by monday. Lets see. and from Monday onwards its gonna be a little different. Moving my with friends in a new apartment. (I was staying with my uncle in philly this week. its around 40 miles from my office).This is much nearer to the workplace. So travel is going to be less and that will allow me to spend more time at home :)

The much awaited day is finally here. Here i go... Trivandrum -> Dubai -> NewYork -> Philadelphia.
The Emirates was supposed to depart at 4.30am from Trivandrum and reach Dubai 7.05am local time. So all set and thrilled to fly. and too add to it i got an upgrade from the economy class to business class due to some overcrowding in economy class. and finally i took off from India...
The travel was pretty good. Also could catch quite some amount of sleep too.
And finally landed in New York at 2.30pm local. My cousins had come to pick me up from the airport and we drove to New Jersey. Spent some time with my relatives and then to Philadelphia.
So finally the day has come to an end which was pretty much eventful and thrilling.. travelling thro' various geographies and time zones.
And I hope to blog more frequently going forward. You may find a little delay intially coz i'm yet to receive my laptop. Here I Go...
