All the journey I cross inside the bazaar

Discover the atmosphere around the sitar shop

Arriving to India

The first impression when I arrive to India being Occidental, was a shock. Shock in the good way I guess but still to be strong for my senses. I was looking for that actually, then I wasn't afraid. The atmosphere in this place you feel the spiritual way since the beginning, but at the same time you think why the people can be so bad in earth. You learn a lot about humanity at this moment because at see this remove your inner most carnal. Where I see this specially was in New Delhi suburbs. I feel bad when one of my reasons of the journey was to find a sitar sale in a sitar shop when they have literally nothing.

The difference between the capital and the village

After the initial taste in the capital, I was decided to discover the little towns and the rural life around. In the initial project the idea was spend the half of the time in small places but after be 2 days in New Delhi I change my mind and go to adventure most of time in my travel, why not? After all I was ready to absorb what for me is the real and indian traditional culture.

Inside the bazar and find the sitar sale

Is here where I discover what I was looking for, like you know one of my projects was to find workshops of traditionals instruments, but specially to find the sitar shop. Then I began to ask to the manufacturers for can learn the process they use, was art how they do. obviously they offer me a sitar sale in a very commercial sitar shop but I was looking for a professional one and I hadn't a good impression. This give a new idea I want to explain you in the next post!
