I started my journey on March 03, 2007 for Paris, my intermediate stoppage before my final destination, Amsterdam. After 10 hrs of pleasant flight in AF Business class, I reached in Paris sharp on time. The Paris airport is really big and I must say just by comparing the airports of Bangalore and Paris, you can easily contemplate the difference in life standard of people in these cities. Paris airport is really big and yet so organized. After spending three hrs on Paris airport, I started my voyage for Amsterdam. To my surprise, I found Schipol airport, Amsterdam to be even better than Paris (This just an initial impression, may be not a correct one).
From past two days I am just strolling on the roads of Amsterdam and I am really impressed by the way this city is maintained. After having seen so many posh BMWs, Mercs and several 600+ CC bikes, what surprised me most is that I find so many people riding cycles here which is in sharp contrast with the mentality of Indians, who will definitely find it a shame if they happen to be rich. I think because of this only, the air pollution in Amsterdam is very less and life seems to be much more peaceful and relaxed.Last but not the least, I find so many Indians here supporting the saying that 'Indians will reach to the places where even train hasn't reached'.
