In late summer 2005, my labmate and close friend Hirak told me he
had proposed to his college sweetheart Sumedha and that they were
planning on getting married in December 2006 in their hometown of Pune,
India.
Many saved paychecks later, I took a month long holiday (the longest
ever for me) to India to see the wedding and the country. Here are some
photographs.
We stopped over in Holland and Germany
for a week before going to India.
I spent some time in New Dehli
Before the wedding, I spent a few days in Goa, a former
Catholic Portugeuse colony of India
Meeting the family of my old college roommate Keyur in Mumbai
And of course, the wedding in
Pune.
During the last week, I did a tour of Arangabad
and Jaipur.
Some movies
of the trip.
And finally, a before & after comparision
of marriage.
