After about 22 hours of flying, via Paris, I arrived last night for my 2 month stint in Bangalore as a learning facilitator for ThoughtWorks University. I managed about 4 hours of sleep - up at 7 am, shared a nice breakfast with Marco and Rixt and headed over to the ThoughtWorks office. I understand that something like 150 people work here, all in a common space. As the office fills up, I am feeling a strange, but happy, apprehension about the sheer number of people I'll be meeting in the near future. So far I haven't ventured outside the Diamond District, which is the apartment/business complex where I'll be working and living.
