i came to london to do my m.b.a... travelling miles gave me a feeling that i have achieved something.. till u earn ur bread and friends..ur life seems to be a bed of roses.. searching for houses.. hunting for jobs.. surviving in the cold.. it seems to be more than a nightmare.. missing those cozy beds..warm lap of mother..care of brother..love of sister..lovely power cuts.. coin box public telephones.. stars in the sky...i miss u my INDIA... Hope that day is not far away roaming on roads..eating mouth watering pani puri. woh barsat.. bhigi bhigi raat...

I came to London about a 1.5 years back in search of better career and experience. I've always been daddy's boy who got everything done through his dad and now I've learnt to handle and make decisions that affect me directly. So far it has been a rewarding experience but I do consult my parents and brother which also involves explaining to them and understanding myself pros and cons of that decision. I've left the nice cool shade of my parents home and made my parents proud by becoming independent.

I see where you are coming from Tanya but its a great eye opening experience. You learn so much, something you might not when living in a sheltered environment.
Besides I am sure there are things about London you enjoy like taking the tube...ok, maybe not but travelling around europe, experiencing a different culture and instead of pani puri you got fish & chips ;-)
