This disconnection has also led Indians to eat foods that are so spicy, so much damaging to stomachs and health. In France, where I live, the society have become very multicultural and sometimes when I observe Vietnamese, Japanese, or Iranian people I wish that Indians would live in the same healty way that these people live, in connection with nature and eat healthy light food.Sindbad PUZZLEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848195680435786875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078069155496768875.post-36388617541950863122012-02-22T13:54:45.129+05:302012-02-22T13:54:45.129+05:30Thank you...I am glad that you like what I write a...Thank you...I am glad that you like what I write about.

It is also a nice place to visit, particularly if you are visiting from a much noisier, and warmer place as I was. <br />In addition to the local sights it is also close to several places of interest to tourists like the Brindavan Gardens, Srirangapattinam (Tipu Sultan's palace), the temples at Belur, Halebed, and Somnathpur, and Shravanabelagola.Balaji Venugopalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09330306599666653331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078069155496768875.post-57161361387230250192012-02-20T16:26:32.144+05:302012-02-20T16:26:32.144+05:30...so enjoy reading your blog, and have to tell yo......so enjoy reading your blog, and have to tell you my husband remembers Bangalore, his brothers used to go to school there, they lived in Khargpur which is a short train journey away.

There are no proper footpaths and the paths that are by the road are potholed, dirty and unpaved. We went to Mysore and visited the Place as well. One of our more memorable places there.

It is nice to hear about life in another country, and interesting to know your feelings about the way life has changed. We often feel like that here, as when we go back to revisit some towns, they all seem to have changed from what we remember them to have been. We often say we are travelling back to the land of 'Rush and Go', or is it just us slowing down!ann @ studiohydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01615115294267727281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078069155496768875.post-33295036884359141352012-02-10T23:02:19.090+05:302012-02-10T23:02:19.090+05:30Nice to see new work again!
