Wish you were here…?

India is a place of both incomparable wealth and unimaginable poverty. The scene above is a very common sight as you pass through all but the most upscale neighborhoods in Mumbai. People actually live in these shantytown structures of plastic and corrugated metal. I really can’t even fathom how a disturbing portion of the population lives. Still, the people we spoke with here (who arguably aren’t the impoverished ones) absolutely love their city and wouldn’t trade it for the world.

It’s off to Delhi soon… which reminds me, I could really go for a good sandwich.
