Day 10 – Kolkata


We only had one night in Kolkata before heading to Goa, but we got to see our dorm room at the IICP and drop off some of stuff that we didn’t need in Goa. It was late and dark in the rest of the building so we weren’t able to see much other than our room and the kitchen. Our dorm is an 8 bed

Corn, Spinach and processed cheese sandwiches, mmm.

The hospitality on the flight to Mumbai was sweet, but awkward. The flight attendant was selling beverages and snack packs to passengers and when he got to us he leaned over and whispered something about a free snack for foreigners. He went to the front and grabbed one of the 395 rupee snack packs that they were selling to the other customers and gave it to Meaghan and I to share. We asked for a second one and I tried to pay for it but he refused my money. He then moved on to the couple behind us and offered them snacks as well, but for the usual cost of 395Rs. Our “faux celebrity” status was starting to don on us.
