Teh blog

Hi

I will be doing an internship in Jaipur, India from 16th of June till 25th of August. What exactly will I be doing there? Well, no idea. Something related to IT I was told.

I'm not a fan of spicy food. I'm also not a fan of hot climate. So going to India for the summer seemed like the logical choice.

I will be living somewhere "with other international workers", so the work place offers me some place to stay. Also some meals should be included. The working place doesn't really pay me any salary but I get some support from a Finnish organization called CIMO which organizes this sort of internships in different fields.

I didn't really have any summer job in Finland so I figured I should do at least something during the summer. Then got a mail to my university faculty's mailing list about a possibility to do an internship in either Chile or India and as my Spanish skills are a 'bit' rusty (que pasa?) I chose India. I have never been in India so this should be an interesting experience. So, why not create a blog and share my experiences this way. Maybe won't need to call mom daily for updates if I update this often enough.

My flight will be leaving on 15th of June towards Delhi. From there I will take a internal flight route to Jaipur, which is about 500km from Delhi to south-west. I was told someone from the company I will be working for (Idex) will come meet me at the airport. Hope this is true, otherwise I just may need to go for a beer to ponder the problem. (Do they serve beer there? I hope they do.)

Anyway. I will be making updates to the blog at constant random intervals. Also pictures are to be expected, but I try not to include myself in them so you'd get a more beautiful picture of India.
