Independence Day

Today we had great celebrations in our office in Mumbai; tomorrow is indepence day and all departments prepared a presentation of typical dresses, traditions and food of Indian states. Because of the event I dressed up in the clothes of Maharastra. As one of the judges (it was also a contest!) I had the opportunity to see it all very close and almost all departments took their chances to make me undergo some of the specific rituals of the state they presented. It was great fun and another possibility to look into the marvelous Indian cultures. Incredible India! It is very true.
PS - This picture was taken by Camila upon arrival in the hotel, she needed the whole day to recover from laughing when I dressed myself in the morning ...
