Things in Bangalore I will miss
- The many friendly, curious, energetic people I met here
- The great food: dosas, vadas, fresh lime soda (Google "dosa" and "vada" if you don't know what they are)
- Low prices for restaurant meals, clothes and other items (OK, low for me)
- Someone making my bed for me every day (which was nice for a year. I never could quite get used to the cleaners coming in every day. I guess I'm too solidly middle-class and too used to doing things for myself)
- The colors -- of clothes, of trucks, of ... everything
- Experiencing a totally different culture from the Judaeo-Christian framework that defines the West
- Being able to wear a T-shirt in January (I am writing this in New Jersey, where some patches of snow are still on the ground)

Thank you for keeping us entertained :)
Hi! Good to know about B'lore as I will be soon relocating to the city on work as well.
I like the post on " Officer on Deck". I suppose the Indian adulation for whites is an outcome of the colonial days. It was constructed to differentiate the masters from the common subjects. It definetly still lingers on.
hey the thing was cool i sure think that anyone can easily fall in love with this city quite easily. i am a boarder from mumbai, i have stayed here for about 1 year now and i love it. mumbai is all pollution...
haha nice
