So I'm moving to Mumbai tomorrow for the next three years

As a following spouse I should be able to get a work visa but that will take a few months; in the interim I suppose I'll work on my novel or something.

Things I'm looking forward to:
1. The food
2. Elephants
3. Monkeys
4. Working as an extra for Bollywood movies

Things I'll miss:
1. Free refills
2. Peanut butter
3. Not worrying about Dengue
4. Pork products of all kinds

I'll probably be off the radar for a bit, but I look forward to posting from GMT+8 in a few days.

I've only visited for work so I'm sure you'll find out a lot more than I ever was able too.

I hope you really enjoy yourself.

India is the second largest producer of peanuts in the world (behind China).

I visited Mumbai, as well as New Delhi several times, and always enjoyed myself there. Bon Voyage!
