50th post...update from $wamy

bonjour a tous!

so heres a little update from me. true its after a little gap but then ive been rather busy. starting with moulin rouge in sep: its wonderful! we cant take pictures though; i think because there are too many sexy, almost-naked girls dancing around. i have a review book which i bought - heres a pic from the book, and what u see is what i saw. but its something i recommend everyone see atleast once - dance scenes almost perfect, great music,comedy shows in between (mixing different languages for a foreign audience) and some amazing circus and acrobatics thrown in. even though the pretty girls are mostly for a male audience, there were as many women as men from all over the world who came to watch the show. its costly, but more than value for money.

in oct id gone with a few friends on a wonderful weekend away from it all, to one of the most beautiful countryside sites of france called ardeche. we had hired a 19th century house and had great food (my french friends cook well), drink and fun. we took long walks along many beautiful natural sites, in what was a tranquil and beautiful experience.

very interesting and hectic work in this french startup where i am interning now, which includes managing an outsourcing project to India(!), marketing activities etc keeps me busy in the week. schedule is now like leave home 7 am and back 8pm, but im doing all that is needed to build a company. last week, i attended this international conference (in montpellier, south-west of france) of Internet companies and technology and guess what, the guest country was India :) so naturally the weekends have to be used well - the last few ones have been filled with parties, a bit of travel around the region and yes, wine tasting: i had got an invitation to a big event in marseille last weekend where we tasted a lot of wine, very good ones - red, white and even champagne. but more than getting drunk, i learned a lot about the wine culture and business. so now i have a better idea on the subject hahaha

hope to see posts from everyone! other than siddharth and me, i don't see many hmmm...hehe :)

HAPPY ONAM !!

today is ONAM, kerala's national festival (for those who don't know) and a time of rejoicing and family fun! i had an hour long video chat with my folks yesterday and it was quite nice :) otherwise im working today and something exciting which im looking forward to is the show in moulin rouge - remember the movie? yes, the same place!! - in paris, which i will go to this saturday. before the real heavy-duty work of launching a startup site starts in september, its good to be enjoying a show hehe...

and now, blogger seems to have added the video upload option, so to test it im uploading a little thing i made using mixmoov (where i work) - this is a tribute to marseille to show why i love it, so u will have an idea why i keep talking about this place so much. till next time, arrivederci friends..!!
