Bangalore Experience!

Bangalore is a fun place to live you know! take this for a sample each day my driving skills are put to new test, manuevering through the scores of bikes all parked at its own right angle and cars through my narrow lane takes extreme patience and stable mind! each day as i finish this ordeal i.e driving through our bengaluru traffic i pat myself on the back!

The best part always wait near the finishing line i.e near to my house , in the end of my lane which is also my entry point comming from office to home there are bunch of cattles catered by this milk seller who lives near by , all these cattles are fed and sheltered on the road. you need to be doubly careful not to hit them when you cross by (i.e if you don't want to be chased by angry mob for hitting innocent cow!)and mostly they don't give a damn to my car horns! i have to use all my priliminary cattle chasing techniques (creating strange noises and slightly tapping them on the tail etc) to shoo away them , i suspect now a days there is a larger crowd than usual to see my daily stunts in the evening :)

When I had a chance to chose bengaluru (bangalore then!) and chennai for my transfer couple of years back i chose bengaluru with out hesitance. I remembered my job searching days here .. it used to be one of the cheapest city that time. I stayed in basavangudi in a pg for 2.5 k (with food mind it huh!) and i always found the natives are very helpful and friendly. back then i used to commute mostly in bus and it used to be reliable. the best part is the auto guys never argued with me to pay more than what is on the meter ( I know you won't believe me) more than all these there is one more important reason i decided to stay here i.e Infant Jesus church in vivek nagar, this is our favourite shrine for more than 20 yrs in fmly and i used to frequent every week and have my private conversation with God :) It always gave me great amount of peace and focus in life. I also remember having butter dosa and aloo in basavangudi eateries it used to be one of the best tasting dosas! hmm there are few more favourites of mine here
* the old coffee shop in MG Road(now moved)
* Morning ride in golf course road near kumarapark , all those trees and fine weather !!

I hope all this will come back one day with new infrastructures in place and companies scaling out in the city , Hmm let me keep my hopes up!
