Londonium

We moved London-wards in 2019.

Ah, what a year it has been.

Even for someone who grew up moving to a new town every few years, and being used to a travel heavy consulting career, this was still a heavy lift. For we were comfortably pampered with familial comforts in Bangalore.

We have been lucky that things have worked professionally and at school. For that we are deeply grateful.

And London has been kind. Well, in most.

Society has been welcoming. There is an incredible multicultural diversity. Indian food and cultural activities are widespread. Infrastructure is comfortable and modern. And there is no dearth of places to see. Or parks, which the kiddo loves.

But, we do miss India. Family and friends. Sounds and smells. 

As they say, change is never easy. We will adapt. We are (if M's emerging Brit accent is any indication).

Onward and forward.
