Back in Bengaluru!!

Hurray....!!!! Am back in the Garden City of India...Namma Bengaluru. I was really excited before I reached Bengaluru, just because it had been around 1.5years since I was out of this place. Ofcourse there were small small visits during this tenure. But I never got a chance to experience the so called great crowd/traffic of Bengaluru.

My first day experience itself was bad. I reached Yeshwanthapur station from my strenuous journey from Pune by train at 8.30AM on a Sunday morning. I was supposed to go to the Guest House which I had booked before coming here. So my journey started from here.... passing through Malleshwaram, Sheshadripuram areas, the City Taxi headed towards my Guest House. There was huge (for a Sunday) traffic jams every now and then and atlast I reached the GH by 10AM... Already my journey was tiring and this small journey from Yeshwanthapur to BTM Layout made me feel more tired due to the great traffic jams and pollution in the city. The main intention of explaining all these is to mention about the bad traffic and how the city has polluted.

I lived in Pune in a very calm area where the traffic and pollution was relatively less compared to Namma Bengaluru. And now a sudden change in my life style is making me very difficult to adjust this place. I always wanted to come back to Bengaluru just because of my family and friends... but once am here, I am now feeling that Pune was a better place to live.

Lets see how it goes... hoping to get adjusted to this heavy traffic jams, traveling in Hosur Road in the company bus, etc, etc.... But yeah... there is life here in Bengaluru, I have my nearer and dearer ones.. I have my hometown to go whenever I feel like... Hope my stay will be exciting and interesting here.... :)
