But eventually I got to know about the good things which you have mentioned. Respect for people is the most important thing I liked here. When I used to go to a coffee shop, I would see old age couples enjoying their coffee. I was so fascinated by it. In India, people would stare them and make them feel as if they are not allowed to enjoy life in old age. I love India like anything but these are few things which we should certainly learn from here. People really don't treat you as foreigners here rather they are warm towards you. Atleast this is my experience since last 2 years. There are certain things such as transportation where they should certainly improve but nonetheless we can learn many things from USA certainly.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12854664095829496818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6799565269580111295.post-83111575026393394032013-03-26T02:19:15.100+05:302013-03-26T02:19:15.100+05:30Wish you had a face and were not unknown :)Wish you had a face and were not unknown :)Chitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03304851487077643798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6799565269580111295.post-68369630525920485552013-03-26T02:17:46.823+05:302013-03-26T02:17:46.823+05:30@unknown :you exactly spoke watever i tried to wri...@unknown :you exactly spoke watever i tried to write in this long post . couldnt agree more to youChitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03304851487077643798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6799565269580111295.post-20595767113459376482013-03-26T01:21:26.564+05:302013-03-26T01:21:26.564+05:30Nice write-up & though it is very much true in...Nice write-up & though it is very much true in most of the aspects everyone sees USA with their own set of preconceived notions. Like many ppl think that moving to US is nothing but easy way of printing $$; but how hard it is for someone to work 24*7 here is not known to everyone. I have been here for the last 1 year n i can very much agree to what you have written n terms of Transport, Private Cars, People n empty homes (since i have gone thru all those experiences)..bt at the end it all depends upon wat u really expected. if you think that living here is a piece of cake den u wud get d biggest shock of ur life on Day 1 if it turns out that u don't hav any dear/ long-lost friend/ relative staying here :-D. The funny part is u get used to life over here pretty quickly (apart frm d fact that dey don't have street lights which still freaks me out). You learn not to expect/ remain dependent on anyone; stop giving ur time n ear to constant bickering from friends/ roomies, you learn to ACCEPT & ADJUST a lot (which you are expected to do once you are married) ;-). But at the end all that matters is how you want to live in USA & what you learn (at a professional & personal front) during your stay :-DReshmi Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313772322870215236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6799565269580111295.post-49549124249219202732013-03-24T06:57:31.721+05:302013-03-24T06:57:31.721+05:30Thanks lavanya i appreciate your efforts in postin...Thanks lavanya i appreciate your efforts in posting a genuine feed back....<br /><br />1) i would want to say by the statement " each one of us...." i wished to say indirectly step out of your country and then may be we all would realise what all stuff we take for granted right from our maids to our richshaw wallahs...<br /><br />2)yes i made the point about families, because its a notion that all Indians have or atleast a majority that the firangs have no family values. So i just wanted to make a point that its not only indians in the whole world who have family values, it is found among others too.<br /><br />And lavanya we indians should learn how these foreigners treat their tourists or rather female tourists. You would feel free as a bird. We indians should learn how to treat our foreign tourists.... I feel safe more than ever ..more than what i ever felt in my country. (you should be here once and you would realise what i am trying to say)<br /><br /><br />Thanks a lot for your wishes... keep reading and i truly appreciate your efforts..:):)Chitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03304851487077643798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6799565269580111295.post-24084711740131230672013-03-24T06:50:26.706+05:302013-03-24T06:50:26.706+05:30@himanshu : I am sure people learn a lot after st...@himanshu : I am sure people learn a lot after staying there even for a month just like it happened to me..<br />Totally happy with the way USA treated me... :) i hope you too had some real good experience... feel free to share...Chitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03304851487077643798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6799565269580111295.post-48261753286024764972013-03-19T12:34:01.173+05:302013-03-19T12:34:01.173+05:30Bundle of emotions and experience makes it a good ...Bundle of emotions and experience makes it a good write up:)<br /><br /><br />As freedom of speech is our birthright(being indian),i would like to express my views on some of your thoughts are pretty judgemental:)<br /><br />1)"each one of us shud live in USA to know how a life is lived" <br /><br />i never knew only if one lives in a particular posh country (economically rich) ,we would get to know the real life..:)<br /><br />2)"indian outing means ordering a food frm a expensive restaurant"<br /><br />and definitly spending time with family in india is not bout ordering expensive food,its bout going to lonavla,mahabaleshwar,shimla ,manali to name a few:)..if u had visited tourist spots in india u would have observed many families with kids running around:)..your perception about the above seems rather personal..<br /><br />and if point(1) and (2) are about your personal experience alone,my apologies for the same:)...As far as your outlook on expereinces with US people is concerned i would rather keep mum..:)...as india is not the safest for women either!!<br /><br />apart from that your other details about food,helpDesk ,transport and nightlife are worth a read:)<br />Wishing you a happy stay in THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA..:)<br />stay safe<br /><br />Lavanya Rajendranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08895047226668733093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6799565269580111295.post-30600989275459760142013-03-19T01:33:57.617+05:302013-03-19T01:33:57.617+05:30So true....
