Welcome to India with us!

For those who don't know it yet, we have moved permanently in India!! No, just kidding.. We have come here because of Toni's work. It's a secondment of six months, so we'll be there till the end of June: Toni working, me studying (and may be working as well), but both exploring a totally new world!

This blog is written in English, so that everybody could understand something. However, there is an automatic translator on our page, which will give you a funny translation in almost any language.

The English translation for the topic is: "Rupees and paise". In Finnish it's a fun wordplay; rupia means scabs and paiseita abscesses, hihhih. We'll try to write every week, but let's see..

Enjoy your trip with us,
M&T

Our neighbourhood

Some photos from our neighbourhood:


Our hotel


Our home street, when it still was silent. Nowadays there is much more traffic, as the main road is closed due to metro work.


You'd better watch downwards, if you don't fall into the gutter...


and also upwards, if you want to beware of power lines...


Supposedly we have already told that Bangalore is called the green city: you can exercise slalom around the trees and other poles when going shopping...;o)


Another sight on our shopping route; quite often they are burning these heaps of trash next to the footpath...


A nearby mall, with rickshaws waiting for customers


Normal traffic


These village buses look a bit nicer than...


the city buses...

Some photos from the roof of Toni's office:

Hei Marie,
ehdin vasta nyt lukemaan blogiasi. Kommenttina kaikkeen kertomaasi: kylläpä on elämä erilaista ja mielenkiintoista (ja varmasti välillä turhauttavaakin yms.) Intiassa! Hieno kokemus varmasti!!! Nauttikaa!

Elämä on ollut alusta loppuun erilaista, joten voin sanoa, että saatiin sitä mitä tultiin hakemaankin: "pientä" vaihtelua, hihi... :o)
