Warsaw, Poland (1995 - 1997)


The 'Brewing Times'

In 1995, I moved from New Delhi, India to Warsaw, Poland - another immense culture shock. I went to school at ASW (American School of Warsaw) from 8th to 9th grade. I lived at some big ass house in the Min Hoong developments, at Ochota, next to that amazing big ass ex-ski resort/park, which had the highest 'hill' in Warsaw. What can I say but… 'innocence' lost!! Haha… Nah, we had the tightest group ever, it didn’t matter who or what you were… everybody had something to offer. Fucking freezing weather (one 6 month snowy winter !!) great parties, raging hormones, copying homework in the hallways, being loud ass freshmen hence getting moved building, perfume fights, the BIG move to highschool, broken hearts, skater wannabes, hacky sack addictions, skin head beat downs, Mike H's 'hill' parties, the market, the Marriot Hotel… and last but fucking no way least… Chris K's house/room !!… That was where it ALL happened man… and what would I call it all?
