Mumbai is a nice city, she'll be OK there. And it is not too far away, so either of you can come and visit as long as you bother to get the visa and cheap tickets. IMO, Vietnam 13 years ago was less easy to reach.

Fortunately, she is just 4.5 hours ahead of me now, and only 3.5 hours ahead in summer time, which will make upcoming videochat possible at decent time during the day for both of us. Quote:
Barbu, is she the girl who lives with you today ? She will not get back here during the year, as she has far less holidays than in France. Me going there is a much more probable move, so I am hoping things will go well until then.

Big news : I managed to sign a contract with a company to work for 6 months in Mumbai. This company is a local IT branch from my current client (famous French bank), and I will keep the same position as in Paris, within the same team. Kind of a telework.
I should hopefully leave in early July, if I get the visa on time, and get back in late January. Planning 6 weeks of holidays throughout the country total. Of course I am very excited to meet my gf soon again. The distance will end after 5 months only, which were rough for us (especially me). This will also be the first time we really get to live together. And live conditions are tough over there, as Mumbai is a difficult city to live in. Further news soon !

Working in such a country sounds like a nice adventure. Usually you'd leave a loved one behind, but for you it's exactly the opposite. I can imagine this was an easy decision Congratulations!
