Why am I doing this?

Hi there. I'm an IT consultant who was asked 3 weeks ago if I would work at a client in Mumbai for 3 months. To cut a longish story short I agreed and found myself flying out from the UK on Tuesday.

I thought it might be worth recording some of my thoughts while I'm here, at least partially to let friends know what I'm up to, and to record stuff in a little more detail than Facebook entries. Who knows, it may also be informative for people who are coming out here themselves?
