A day in Bangalore

Let me describe for you my normal day in Bangalore. In other words how my day is after settling down and knowing all that I need to know for basic living :D

First of all I live in a place called Frazer Town. It's a very nice place in Bangalore. For me honestly it's a big advantage living in such a place as it is a Muslim community town. There's a big mosque near my house, a lot of good super markets and shops, a few restaurants that offer "Arabian food" (at least they try to), and actually there's a lot of Arabs here. Most of them are students studying here in India. The ones I met were from Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Syria. Also this is where most of the trainees are and it's close to the center of the city where everything is happenin ;). One of the good advantages of this area that the company bus passes through there!!

I live in a 2 bedroom apartment. I share it with my colleague at work, whom is also an AIESEC trainee. His name is Eduardo, he's from Brazil. So it's two bedrooms with two attached bathrooms (sweet, huh?). It's semi-furnished which means that there's only wardrobes and cupboards available in the flat. We are furnishing it bit by bit. So far each one has a mattress and we have a refrigerator now as well.

As for my day, it starts up by waking up around 6 am take a shower, have breakfast, and get dressed to catch the company bus at 7 am. With picking up all the other employees and going to the company it takes like an hour baring in mind that at this time it's not yet rush hour. Believe me, you don't wanna be experiencing rush hour in Bangalore!! I work in a place know as ITPB (http://www.intltechpark.com/home.html). My office is in one of it's buildings. It's not allowed to take pictures of the office from inside so don't ask me to take a picture of myself while being on my desk :P I'm in a training phase now which should take me about 2 months. I didn't actually start the real work. It's better that way, so I get used to the place and people by the time I get to actually work. Lunch break is anytime between 12:30 and 14:00. I finish work at around 16:45 to catch the bus at 17:00. I go back home either chill or go out if there's anything worth it :)

Tomorow is Friday, the weekend in India. There's always something happening on that day, will let you know about it for sure. Stay tuned!!
