Mumbai

Our experiences in Mumbai have been some of the most powerful yet! We got the opportunity to walk through a slum on Christmas Day and talk to some of the ever so proud young rugby players, who had invited us into their 3x3m homes of which they share with several other family members. The self pride of the people in the slum was evident when we noticed how not even once did any of the people ask for money or in fact anything from us.

Another thing that stood out was how happy the people living there were. Overall that for me was the best Christmas present I could have asked for.

  1. Hey Sam, loving the blog posts by you and your mates - dhoom3 sounded like a treat. We hung out with your folks and sisters over Xmas although we have all had deli-belly NZ style...over the worst now though. Lots of comments about how you sound grown up. :o) Goa to come so remember the sage advice of your uncle.

    Love Chris, Lucy, Delphie and Taba.
