Nice pics jack, sounds like you are having a great time travelling for your job.
My last company had a huge office in India, and its a pretty big culture shock according to my coworkers who went. Our office is a huge building that overlooks a slum of lean-tos and 3rd world poverty.
So many people die in traffic accidents that project managers actually had to account for the fact they would probably loose someone on a longer term project!
People are so cheap there that when they would ship a US person over there, they get their own driver, assistant, and in the office you never clean anything or even erase a whiteboard yourself.
I have to admit, Im starting to waver from my previous "fuck travelling" attitude.
The Australia position opened up again and Im considering it.
