The moment we entered Stockholm- Sweden airport at noon, I felt there may be a curfew? A huge airport compared to Indian airports, but no where people on sight, outside the airport inside the city also the same, I just enquired about it to my companion who is a regular here, Sweden is a big country with only 5 million population!!! My mind was imaging about mumbai scenario "WoW surely I am going to face lot of surprises".
We travelled to a small town may be a village called Sandviken, only a 25000 popuated "clean air" place, the entire locale was looking like Ooty garden, what a lovelier life no.. Its not a lovelier it's healthier lazy life, cool climate temp around 5 to 10 Deg C, morning starts at 8.30 and the day ends at evening 6.30, all the shops were closed by 6.30 but day light was present still 8.30 evening.
Surprise 1 no children in visible sight reason they are all in day care center
Surprise 2 No gender difference everybody goes to work (Its a surprise bcos I am a Indian)
Surprise 3 We went to a manufacturing plant there was no security gate, not enough population for theft, gate crashing...
Surprise 4 Even you become a vice president of a company but u can not afford to hire a personal car driver
People are working on day time sincerely, ending the day probably in a pub, going to bed very early compared to my standard bed time of mid nite 12.
Initially I felt our Indian lives are cursed, later realised our life is more eventful than a European.

Airdeccan-Manisha-Shock
Hi, Yes may I help you (with a smile)!
I came in Air deccan Chennai -Mumbai, my trolley bag lock is broken, things are shuffled, shot back immedite reply with alert any valuables lost? Luckily apart from clothes nothing kept inside (A hand luggage of lap top, digital camera and Ipod got escaped).Ok sir I will book a oral complaint Mr Vijayakumar (Serious tone), Air line people will contact you later. What is the meaning of Oral complaint? Sir you have not lost anything (Good reply).
What is your name? Manisha, if u want to complain still pls meet duty manager, I cant give any written acknowledement for your complaint. Ms Manisha what is your surname your approach is very suspicious are you Manisha show me your ID card, shown something in Marathi, show me the backside so that I can read (May be printed in English), Sir you can not touch me I will call airport security (My first encounter with Sick uglier women like this, felt nauseasting).later she slipped away without any proper reply.
(Walked near her) Where is your duty manager? He is in Departure gate, call him here, Mr Gaurav Can not come here sir , Pls go to departure gate. Any other responsible person available here to attend? for any help pls go to departure gate sir.
was walking towards departure gate, still My mind was wandering about what to complain either about broken lock or irresponsible employee or both. Sir I am the incharge of baggage handling Give me your complaint in writing, If any valuable lost what whould have happened, I enquired politely while I was doing the application, simple reply "we are not responsible if you kept any valuables inside your luggage" More shocks about Manisha now I understood madam's initial question and purpose. This is the acknowledgement for your complaint, air line people will contact you sir.
It happened a week back, till today no response.
I cursed myself for travelling with a good looking luggage case.
