I typed "Yoga Jobs" in the search bar on FB. I responded to one of the posts and got a response in a day asking to fix an appointment for an interview. And that led me to land in a new country called Georgia (Not the American state called Georgia). It's neither in Europe nor in Asia. Found a new term called Eurasia. It all happened in a week. It was too quick to believe. I was a little suspicious as it was a FB post, and I was getting ready to go to the cold country. I spent a lot of money buying warm clothes, and this venture became the most expensive as I had to fly to Delhi from Bangalore on top of shopping as my flight tickets were from Delhi to Georgia via Sharjah.
Went to see family (Many would understand that family means wife and children, in my case, no, I have neither of them;-)) Every time, I think, what if my Grandma doesn't exist when I return? That thought makes me look into her face with devotion.
Another would-be colleague was also flying by the same flight from Delhi to Georgia. He forced me to believe that the domestic flight from Bangalore arrives at the domestic airport, saying that he had flown from that airport many times. So I believed him, and after arriving at Delhi's Airport (International Airport), I got into a Cab (#Ola), and I told him to take me to Delhi International Airport ;-)
It was hilarious!!!
Welcome to Delhi. The driver said he would take a U-turn, some KMs away, and you need to pay extra. I told him I would pay only whatever the #OlaApp says. Then he was trying to explain there were these charges and those charges. I requested him not to repeat the same thing repeatedly as all the costs are included in the final bill. Then, I asked the gentleman to take me to a restaurant, and he took me to a bar and restaurant. I asked him to take me to a nice place where they serve excellent vegetarian food. Then kept going on and on. I did enjoy the ride in Delhi streets, where I once wandered for nearly three years. I finally got a call from my would-be colleague, who told me his place was nearby and asked me to join him as there were around 5 hours to catch the evening flight to Georgia. We started with lunch that day...
I reached Georgia after strict scrutiny of travel documents at Delhi and then at Sharjah airports. We
were standing in the queue at the Immigration and not sure whether we would be walking out through the exit door or had to fly back to India as their last attempt to bring an India Yogi to Georgia was a disaster. However, we made it to the exit gate. Boss was waiting for us with her two friends at 2 AM. which shows how much efforts are involved in bringing us here. Gamarjoba Georgia!!!
And there was a question in the car, would you like to eat something? The question itself was invalid until that day. Anyway, I ended up sitting in a restaurant at around 3 AM as everybody else wanted to eat. I thought I would starve if I skipped now as the next meal would be very late. It appeared to be common to eat late at night as there were other people too at that time. In no time, the place was filled with smoke. I thought there would be more surprises/difficulties I should be prepared to face.
