“The Darling Of The West”- Miami, Florida
I am sure most of us have one dream life in common. TO GO TO AMERICA, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, The country that has its own charm, owns sophistication and a commanding culture.
My childhood fascination was America, we grew up watching, listening and reading about American actors, politicians, and noted personalities. If I am not wrong and my memory is working right at 30 plus, I heard about this great country for the first time, when I was in school and was taught about Abraham Lincoln, the First Honourable President of United States.
When I completed my tenure as Bollywood Journalist in Mumbai, I was hunting for a job and that too which had exposure to International & travel culture. After a few months of juggle, I was lucky enough to be interviewed by one of the leading cruise lines in the world, THE ROYAL CARIBBEAN INTERNATIONAL for the position of a Cruise Photographer. Cruise Photographer was a term so new and fresh and so exciting to my ears. But a series of interviews with ROYAL CARIBBEAN INTERNATIONAL representatives in Mumbai got me through and flew down to Miami on 17th November 07, once I reached the airport I actually kissed the land, I wished to visit always. I was thankful to the almighty that could reach the USA through merit and in an ethical way.
