Every morning, I reach the parking lot and I enter through "Ëinfahrt".
Every evening I leave office and I am wished "Gute Fahrt".
I exit the parking lot through "Ausfahrt".
If this continue like this fahrt would become a fixation and the whole environment would stink..if you know what I mean.
This whole country is fahrting you know!
In the office the most common discussion topics are "who is fahrting what" or whether "i fahrt better than you" or whether "women are better fahrters than men" or "which navigation device allows one to fahrt better".
Today morning while coming to work I got lost while fahrting and I tell you it was not funny.

Professional - to my surprise
I had a very pleasant experience with a local car dealer in Bangalore - Classic Automobiles. I sold my 2005 Honda City VTEC to them this month and they not only gave me a decent deal but also allowed me to keep the car for a week after the agreement was signed with them.
Payment was also promptly made and they were very proactive in pursuing the legal paperwork etc.
I would heartily recommend them to all.

Intertial Displacement
Have you ever wondered why is it so difficult for most of the people to relocate? I have a reasoning around it and that is that humans being social animals are very good in growing "roots". The longer an individual stays in a location the stronger the roots become. Stronger the roots more difficult it is to uproot them and move on. In scientific terminology an object having more inertia would require more force to change its state.
I know any lame duck would understand where I am going with this. Well, yes I relocated lock, stock and barrel after spending 8 odd years in Bangalore. Over the past couple of days I am settling down in my new location and checking the soil to see how soon the new roots will grow.
Over the last weekend I spent time at the new apartment which will be my home for the next few years. It is so very beautiful. It is located quite close to the town center but is in a nice, quiet burrough. The place is comfortably large but not monstrous, has a covered parking, has nice ventilation and cheerful sunlight, warm colors, a green balcony and a private garden. Behind the apartment complex are huge expanses of wineyards where one can go running and mountain biking as there are small hills and rough terrain. It is quite a big change from the previous apartment I had and needless to say I love it.
By the way, I am celebrating "Indian summer" in the beginning of "European winter" as all my warm clothes are in the shipment which is somewhere in air and somewhere in sea. Waiting for bank account and credit cards to be available to make some purchases. Maybe its the start of new roots, eh?
