Life in America - week #1

7 days ago I landed in Dulles International Airport. My first overseas trip. With lot of excitement and anxiety I came down to DC. This trip can change my life. I know the ground reality before starting this journey. Things are not going to easy. Trying hard to make things work fine.

When I was in India, I had feeling that I'm obese. Now, I don't have that feeling. I can see too many xxl sized people around me. DC is a very costly place to live. Every day I have to spend around 20$ for my transportation and for my lunch. When I convert this into Indian Rupees, it comes to 900Rs. 4$ to use the washing machine and dryer (Enna kodumai saravanan ithu :( ). Hope after another 51 weeks I will return to India.
