A common situation in most overseas airports used to be Indians on their toes, shopping at the duty free stores and filling all the space that remained in their over-packed bags with chocolates for all their numerous friends and relatives back home.Like every other Indian girl, the arrival of those typical “Trolley Cases”(a birthmark of an overseas voyage) used to make me prance around for weeks together.

What I like the most about the facebook oage is that I have made a lot of new friends, and with one of them ...
