I´ve came to delhi for an internship and somehow ended up stuck at my place.. I believe Delhi is an interesting place to live although everything seems to be more difficult here..

Yeah, that's very true about Delhi as it is about any major Indian city... kinda been experiencing the same thing myself. But more importantly, you missed the Delhi meetup last Sunday . Pretty close, eh?

Does it have to be specifically Europe or the US?
What about people from Australia, Canada, Africa, New Zealand? Or even ... India?

Where from?
There is a great "Introduce Yourself" thread by the way.

Are you seeking one friend / partner, or a group? If a group, I suggest the Delhi meetup. As rahulmeg says you've missed one but there will always be another.

Food in itself is enough for you to stay here for a few years , you can try a new place everyday and you will still not run out of the variety that this city can offer..

I'm gonna agree with Puchoo! I mean it's next to impossible to find such great food in the shaddiest corners anywhere else in India. Its quite amusing.
So photography, eh?
No wonder you keep updating your avatar , Do you have a photo-blog or something?
