Dinner @ Ralf’s Place

My German friend Ralf and his family have been living in India for 3 years due to work. I’m very happy to have dinner at their home tonight.
因為工作的關係, 我的德國朋友Ralf和他的家人已經在孟買住了三年,今晚我受邀到他們家用晚餐,Ralf的太太Amy是台灣人,廚藝極佳,她們育有二子,一男一女,都長的非常可愛漂亮, 她們今天也邀請另外兩位來自台灣的客人,都是服務於長榮海運,外派到孟買的台灣男士
席間大家聊的非常開心,話題都是圍繞著不可思議的印度,我十分同情她們的處境,因為印度的生活品質真的很差,如果可以選擇,她們都不會想住在這裡
印度的生活費用非常高,但是卻沒有相等的價值,長榮海運雖然提供給外派人員每月10萬盧幣(相當台幣8萬2千元 )的預算租屋,卻仍難以找到適合的住所,稍有品質的房子都要20-30萬之間(台幣16萬-25萬)
Ralf服務於西門子,公司有較多的預算,她們現在住的這個附傢俱的公寓,只有兩間臥室,我覺得大概只有40坪左右,月租金高達90萬盧幣(台幣74萬元),嚇人吧???房子是不錯,但是一樣的租金,在其他國際級的都市,絕對可以住;在更好的超級豪宅,享受更優質的生活,
,Amy在德國逛超市時,看到衛生紙的銷售價格,更是驚嘆於印度的高消費,大喊家庭主婦很難在印度存錢,因為一捲衛生紙就要一歐元

祝福他們都能早日脫離印度,在其他土地上重享優質生活!!!!

The refreshing face towel grows when cold water is poured on it




































Highly recommend this Thai restaurant in Mumbai. The food is great, the service is excellent, and the decoration is also very cool. I really like their idea for the hand towel.

Taj President Mumbai














The lobby is quite modern, but the room is very old. Staff are very nice. Excellent Service!!

Business Trip to Mumbai

This is my second business trip to Mumbai. The weahter is really humid in Mumbai at this season. I'm ready for all of the adventures.....

懷著戒慎恐懼的心情, 我再次出發到印度孟買出差, 希望此行在不生病的情況下, 能達成減重2公斤的目標, 我有信心.....一週無間斷的印度菜定可助我順利達陣

從香港飛往孟買的途中, 身旁坐的是位從事飯店設計的中年香港男子, 他未曾到過印度, 非常恐懼這次的旅行, 出發前還徵求醫生的建議, 打了各式預防針, 吃了預防瘧疾的藥, 怕被蚊蟲咬, 還把自己全身包的密不透風, 雖然當地氣溫高達36 - 40, 他看到我一身輕便的夏季裝扮, 感到很不可思議

當我知道國泰航空會降落在孟買五月底才啟用的新國際航廈, 我真的有說不出的高興, 舊航站的椅子不夠,距離廁所又遠,我上次所經歷的痛苦, 畢生難忘......但我踏出機艙時, 發現這個新航站只是個有牆和燈光的大型工地,所幸椅子還蠻多的,嗆鼻的殺蟲劑味道和舊航站完全一樣

Welcome To Incredible India!!!

印度落實階級制度的精神連機場都看的到, 搭乘頭等艙和商務艙的客人有特別的海關通道,提領行李也有特別的區塊和指標, 感謝必治妥公司, 我很慶幸自己能享受這些尊榮

出機場後, 那可怕的溼熱空氣真的快把我擊垮了!!!

First Time DJ @ Tanguisimo




I really enjoyed the milonga at Tanguisimo tonight. Not because I was the DJ, but the cozy atmosphere. I haven't gone out for tango dancing on the weekdays for a long time. It's actually a good idea to relax myself after working whole day .
好喜歡週三舞會的氣氛, 沒有過多的舞者擁擠在舞池, 人與人間的距離好像拉的更近, 在忙碌工作一天後, 透過探戈舞蹈適度地解放自己, 真是不錯的選擇, 我以後一定會常來這個舞會

Manicure & Pedicure @ Kuala Lumpur

Kula Lumpur Tango Festival

Venue : Fragipani
Address : 25 Changkat Bukit Bintang
Tel : 60-3-2144-3001










After dinner with my boss and colleagues. I'm ready to attend the tango festival in Kuala Lumpur. CH is my colleague from Malaysia, she was so nice and offered me a ride to the tango place. The TRAFFIC was so bad in the city. CH had some problems to find the place even if we had the address. Then CH made a couple of phone calls to ask for directions, but we still couldn't find the place after 1.5 hours.
So I decided to call a taxi. Guess what? It took me only 3 minutes to find the place by paying RM5. ^_^
和同事用完餐後,我就迫不及待地趕往探戈舞會
我的馬來西亞同事很熱心地開車載我到舞會地點,雖然我們有地址,也打電話和舉辦舞會的餐廳通電話詢問如何到達,花了1.5小時卻仍找不到, 最後我還是花了5元馬幣搭計程車才找到
在此地,可能有1/4以上的舞者是外國人,來參與探戈節的人大多是來自印尼,新加坡...參加的人數不多, 好舞者也不多, 可是氣氛是非常融洽而和善的
和幾位當地只學1年的初學者跳, 發現台北的初學者程度還真不錯...............
