Desi week begins!


The Tri-colour flying at the camembert has been the most awesome sight at Insead!

The bar area is equally spectacular. Radiating from the center, they have almost covered the ceiling with sarees. Its seeming like a Jaipuri den with the myriad colours. At the entrance there are two hand made elephants in black and gold.
On the glass windows, there are pictures (hand drawn) of Buddha, the Taj Mahal and other icons of India.
One corner has an elaborate rangoli and another a dholaki wala and a dancer made of paper and cloth on hard board.

What amazing talent! One of the most oft repeated names I keep hearing is a girl named Veena. Anything beautiful you see and ask - 'Who made this' - and the answer is her. Wow!
