We meet when the bus has to stop 30km away from our destination because the roads are damaged and gets filled with cab drivers looking for business. "You can come with us, we have a driver." Three work at the same advertising and event agency, one is a gym buddy. "It’s nice we get to travel to Singapore for work but there’s racism against Indians there." The driver takes long and we get some tea and food in a little outdoor restaurant. "I’m veg but not pure-veg so I eat the gravy but not the chicken." We squeeze into the car with two on the shotgun seat and drive fast. A nap later we’re in my room drinking local wine and a buffet of snacks. "Hitler was great, not good." They invite me to stay with their families in Hyderabad and eat more food than I will have thought I could.
