Ok, before I go any further, just want to point out a few things:
- I have been in India less than three days, and will likely at no point be an expert or even fluent in culture or customs. The following are just my impressions, which will sometimes be expressed as sweeping generalizations and will sometimes be patently inaccurate.
- I am spoiled and sheltered, and highly accustomed to my pampered existence in lovely (if cold) Minnesota. Clearly this will color my worldview, and the tone of some of the above impressions.
- The express purpose of this blog is personal – a way to communicate efficiently with my family and friends and chronicle our stay in Bangalore so that I can print and scrapbook it after we return.
- I do understand I’ve chosen to post this “personal diary” on the internet. Hence, the perceived need for the above disclaimer.
Please read all that follows with the above in mind.
