Great List! Sounds like you're missing India already. Is it possible to email this page to someone?

I spent a lot of time in Kerala in the 80s and 90s, and I'd be glad to compare notes with you on your experiences, especially with respect to how things have changed.
My stomping grounds were mainly Chengannur, Allepey, Kottayam, and to a lesser extent Cochin and Trivandrum.
It's a weird place, and most people who've been there for any length of time love it and hate it both.

Sorry about the ring tone! Still haven't been able to figure out how to send it :(
having stumbled onto the India section of your blog & having read your experiences in India, I won't say that you give a bad image of India but I'd agree to that somewhat. What you experienced is no different than what I'd experience if I go to some other country having different culture, way of life than what I'm used to. So that doesn't mean that there's a problem with that place but there's a problem with me adjusting to that change of environment. :)
There are two sides of a coin & of a country/culture. I'd say that you experienced the less brighter side in New Delhi. Its the heart of India, the capital city, so you can't say that its worse compared to Pune. ;) It has got a much brighter side too which I think you missed out on b'coz there was no-one to guide you around. :D
Still, if you come again to New Delhi, I'd be glad to show you around on what I think you missed out, which makes your experience of New Delhi incomplete. :)

Also, I just noticed that you were looking for the Kal Ho Na Ho ringtone. If you still haven't got it & if you have a Nokia mobile phone, then you might try out the RingTones section of my website at http://www.igeek.info/ringtones.php which has key-press sequences for all popular Bollywood songs.

Hi! I really loved reading this list :) Rivers ... ok Have you ever been to seashores? Band-stand and Juhu beach? It is a lovely feeling to walk barefoot on the sand, especially during the night.
So, you love Poha ... lot of people have said I make really delicious Poha, so may be some day ... I have phobia of walking through the university campus, for personal reasons. Eating on the kitchen floor - you've actually done that? gr8! and yes, it does feel good ... Krack cream? lol
