Its been more than 20 days since I arrived at UK and its been a happening month for me.
The first week was more of introduction at office, getting used to the environment, conditions and yes also preparing for the much awaited Paris trip that was planned for me even before I reached here
.
I had get my schengen Visa done, so I visited the French embassy in in London in the first week itself as I got an appointment for Friday 11.30 AM. The day was more of embassy stuff and I finally got through the entire process and was free at 4PM.
As it was my first visit to london, I had planned to meet my childhood friend Abhishek and spend some time with him sightseeing but unfortunately could’nt do so as he was busy and I did’nt inform him earlier. Not a good news for me.
Still, I managed to roam around the South Kensington Underground station to feel the air of London. I returned to London Victoria station at 5:30 and caught a train to Worthing (my base at UK) only to reach worthing by 7:30 pm.
That was my first trip to London. Next opportunity came pretty soon, when 3 of us (office colleagues) planned to visit London on Monday as it was a Bank Holiday. That was a good trip for me as I got to see lot of London.

Next friday we had to leave for Paris. It was a great experience. Hopefully I will be able to detail the entire experience in my next post.
Till then keep reading.
I’ll leave you with some lines from a poem of a Hindi poet
Koi diwana kehta hai, koi pagal samajhta hai
Koi diwana kehta hai, koi pagal samajhta hai
Maga dharti ki bechaini ko bas badal samajhta hai
Main tujhse dur kaisa hun tu mujhse dur kaisi hai
Ye tera dil samajhta hai….ya mera dil samajhta hai…….
Mohabbat ek ehsaason ki paawan si kahaani hai
Mohabbat ek ehsaason ki paawan si kahaani hai
Kabhi kabira diwaana tha kabhi Meera diwaani hai
Yahan sablog kehte hain meri aankhon me aansoo hai
Jo tu samjhe to moti hai…jo na samjhe to paani hai….
Samandar pir ka andar hai lekin ro nahi sakta
Samandar pir ka andar hai lekin ro nahi sakta
ye aansoo pyar ka moti hai isko kho nahi sakta
Meri chaht ko apna tu bana lena magar sun le
Jo mera ho nahi paaya wo tera ho nahi sakta
Bhramar koi kumudni par machal baitha to hungama
hamaare dil me koi khwaab pal baitha to hungaama
abhi tak doob kar sunte the sab kissa mohabbat ka
Main kisse ko haqiqat me badal baitha to hungama.
