Traveling has always been an adventure, especially when I was younger. I remember a particular incident when I was 14, long before the convenience of smartphones and translation apps. It happened during a trip to South India, a region known for its vibrant culture and delicious cuisine. At a busy railway station, I ordered what I thought were vegetarian pakoras. The vendor handed me a dish that looked right, but something smelled a bit off. Just as I was about to eat, a helpful stranger came over and said, "Wait, that's non-veg!" I realized that, due to a language barrier, I had almost eaten something I wouldn't normally have. It was a funny and eye-opening moment that reminded me how important it is to be clear when communicating, especially in new places. Has anyone else had a similar mix-up while traveling or eating out? I'd love to hear your stories! #TravelStories #FoodMixUp #CommunicationChallenges

The founder of KFC was a loser until he was 65, he had no money, he borrowed $87 and started making fried chicken wings. He failed 1,009 times before he was able to sell his first franchise. By the age of 88, he had become a billionaire.

Long weekend was screwed by a release that was supposed to happen earlier but got delayed. The cons of being in a small startup is not talked about enough. I had to cancel plans and work instead.
