A week in Chennai, India- 2/26 - 3/5/10
This is at least the 4th business trip to Chennai for Hoa! He is familiar now with the surrounding and the people are really nice and friendly. Chennai is such a long way from home! It takes about 30 hours from door to door. To get to Chennai you can fly two different routes. Either you go the Europe route or you can go the Asian route because Chennai is kind of in the middle. This time Hoa selected to go the Europe route so he can stop by Paris for 3 days and visit his family.
