This is less about Gurgaon and more about everything else other than Gurgaon. I am on one of my semi-annual trips back 'home' in Europe. Home in this context usually means a tour passing through at least Austria and Spain, each holding droplets of my family and friends. I have to admit I suffer from a particularly severe case of reverse culture shock. Many ofyou might be able to relate to some anecdotes as folks leave for the summer.

The greater Gurgaon Connection community shopped for the greater good on Monday, April 30, when more than 325 shoppers and 70 vendors gathered together in our biannual mela, a one-stop shopping day at the Crowne Plaza.
The result was an amazing 1.84 lakhs (US$3,400), raised for the expat charity club, Feeling India. The money will fund vaccination camps, school supplies, facility development, and ongoing operating costs at Feeling India's supported charities.
