Going “Home”

Filed under: India — Tags: , , , , — Ashok @ 2:39 pm

Read an interesting article about expat Indians returning to India from United States – and then realize that India now is not the same as the India they left years ago. It’s interesting how people deal with that difference between expectations and reality. One thing that really stood out for me in that article is the following quote from one of the expats who has gone “home”:

In America, you can be comfortably unhappy. In India, you can be uncomfortably happy!

How true! That pretty much sums up my experience of living in these two countries!
