Incredible India - not same same, but totally different

I thought I had travelled in Asia before, and I believed I had seen and experienced a lot.. Thank you, India for teaching me a lesson and leaving me so humble again in this regard! I was told India would be different, intense, and overwhelming; but still I did not expect such a trip  😆 Starting my trip in a very hectic phase of my year (business, changing flats, and a medical incident in my family) I had very little time to prepare my travels. Arriving in Delhi in the middle of the night, the lack of preparation lead to the first issues.. the local sim card I bought was only activated 24h later, the metro was not running at this hour, and my hotel pickup service didn’t show up.. so using my common sense I went for a pre-paid taxi (to avoid being spun around the city several times); unfortunately, this is the type of taxi that will stop in the middle of the city, road blocks ahead, and stating that the area my hotel is in wouldn't be accessible due to some street festival
