Gotta Love Those Taxis

If there is something I will always remember about this trip it will be the time I spent in Mumbai (formerly, or currently depending on who you talk to, Bombay). The music, the food, the people. The fact that the taxi drivers LOVE to talk. Every cab I got in was always a new experience and a chance to connect with the locals. The food was amazing and truly a treat. I really hadn’t started eating Indian food until I arrived in London at the beginning of the trip, but the actual Indian food was so much better than what I had prior to my stay in Mumbai. Initially I never thought there would be such a rich culture to involve myself in, or never did I once think that traffic could be any more eye opening than it was during my time in Mexico. I must admit though, our hotel was a bit of a way from the city center, but exploring the shops and restaurants in our area was pretty cool. Lots of clothes and food vendors, even a coffee house.
