After 10 days in India, I'm back home in San Francisco. Riding back from the airport in beautiful sunny weather, looking out at the scenery, and listening to Jay-Z on the cabbie's radio, I couldn't help but think that we live in a great country. I don't often make such statements about the U.S. being "great," but the life that most of us live in this country is irrefutably more comfortable than that of other countries.
The traveling doesn't stop... next week I'll be in Grand Rapids, Michigan for work (and will return another 3-4 times over the next 6 months). To go from India to a super-American town like Grand Rapids (as proof, the city made this viral video to Don McLean's American Pie) is kind of a trip. All I can say is that I'm lucky to see so many places. Even more so, I'm glad to be back home and that my travel schedule is going to be much calmer over the next few months.
