I negotiated a business trip into a grand adventure

I was the Operations Manager for a wonderful company that is a global leader in the mobile software and connected devices space. Mutual Mobile asked me to spearhead the construction of a new office for our team in Hyderabad, India. I spent half a year building out a state of the art facility for our growing international team. During my time in India, I visited many places, participated in many cultural festivities, and created lifelong bonds with some of my new best friends. India is a beautiful and diverse country with many mysteries, even to its people. For an outsider like me, I just did my best to say “yes” to every invitation and experience as much as possible. From the majesty of the Taj Mahal to the Palace of the Dalai Lama, and from the Rajasthani desert’s vast emptiness to the ruins of ancient civilization, India has something unexpected and incredible lurking around every corner.
