My US experience in nut shell!!


In the past two years in US, I have experienced a lot of new things and i want to share those with you guys, my intend is not to bore you :) but to just share my experiences with you.

I came here first on the freezing January of 2007 in a month's assignment, my first destination in US was South Portland, Maine, frankly speaking it is not what i have pictured US to be, but after a week or so i have started liking the place solely because of the fact that i have made some good friends here, i just roamed around a bit since most of the time it was snowing and i was there only for a month so the time passed away really fast. That is just a glimpse of US for a month or rather i would say a glimpse of not so US for a month.

Next time i came to the same place on November 2007, same in all respect like the work, the apartment etc. for a long time assignment, so that time i have decided i will be exploring the US entirely, that time some of my college friends were also there in US, not in the same place though, so we have decided to go for a Florida trip on the long weekend of december, it was an awesome experience and a nice way to start 2008.

First part of 2008 is pretty low key for me, the main attraction for me is to get the driver license because in US, car is not a luxury but it is a necessity, public transport is very bad here so i have started preparing for the license and finally got it on October and also got my first car(i was really happy) on the same month itself. Same year i made some good friends again, went out pretty much on weekends and long weekends only and we had a lot of work in the office too, a lot of major releases went into production and everything was moving along very nicely, i end up 2008 with a trip to New York city, it was one of the thrilling moments for me and that is what i have pictured US to be :) and we have started the 2009 with a bang in NYC.


2009 is one of the best year i had in US so far, I made some really good friends and had an awesome time with them, for the first time i tried Skiing,Rock climbing, Sail boat racing, Mountain biking, Hiking, White water rafting and Camping, i also watched a base ball match in a VIP club seat, on June my parents visited me for a month and i had an wonderful time with them,we went to New york,Boston,Niagara Falls, Washington DC and Virginia, and you won't believe i drove my own car, and at the end of the month i have realized that i drove almost 5000 miles i want to stop my calendar/watch there itself,but time passed by and on September 2009 i moved to a new project in Boston.


Boston is a whole new chapter for me this yr, will keep you posted if something exciting happens :)
