Overcoming the Delhi Winter

Today, the midnight of 17th of February, I announce the end of Delhi Winter. It's going to be a warm and sunny world cup (during the first innings - thanks to flood lights), the perfect weather for the game.

A lot of sacrifices were made during the last three months, my first winter in Delhi. One dark night, 5 mattresses, 4 rajai's, 4 friends sleeping over at home, 1 thin blanket, and my atithi-devo-bhav jazba taught me the lesson of the winter. Never bite more than you can chew.

As the season turns around and mercury rises from the ashes, two lines that sum up my battle with the cold.

Dilli ki thand-ba,
Fir bhi ghamand-ba.
