Where do you belong ?


NYT carried this blog-post on a NRI who returned back to India only to return back to US again.

While I don't agree with all the opinions in the blog, I am impressed at the author's courage to highlight what prompted the move. As the comment suggest, it is easy to be judgmental about the author and his views and most of the comments make a personal attack on his character.

At the end of day, you gotta be where your heart is !

R2I aka returning to India..


When I left India, I never thought that it would take me 13 years to get back home :-). Getting back was long journey, it look me all of 13 years to plan it out !

Returning back is a different experience, you tend to view 'usual' things in a different light.  And of course, it is a big deal, uprooting your family/kids and transitioning across geographies, climate, institutions and culture.

These are just random thoughts, and hopefully are useful for other folks returning back ! So here it goes :-)
