Making regional friends

I was staying in the hotel 3 weeks without knowing there are friends around. Fire alarm went off one evening. Everyone happened to come out of the rooms. Met 5 Indian people and to my surprise one of them works for the same company as I. Thereafter we helped each other, cooked and had meals together, did shopping and became good friends. Had lengthy chats, arguments and learned about everyone’s country, culture, opinions.

My friend who works for the same company originated from a very remote village in India and being the first graduate from her area is a great achiever in her life. Yet long way to go. I wish her all the best and courage
