SANJEEV: As we sit in the airport contemplating our 15 hour flight across the world, I am thinking about a past that is so much a part of my future. I return to the streets I grew up in, with George, introducing him to the food I ate and loved, and the people that are family. This journey should be interesting as we mix business and pleasure and indoctrinate George in the ways of India.
