My life in Delhi (follow-up)

What I didn't realize I'd miss:

Hot showers
The shower, period.
Websites with correct information
Living by my own rhythm
Drivers who don't honk.
The nearness of the donut shop
A large desk/ workspace
Large breakfasts and small dinners


What I'm glad to be back to:

New Delhi's street food
Autorickshaws
Steaming hot chai with fresh ginger
My little dog's insistence on sitting in my lap
High school friendships
Calling everyone "uncle," "aunty," "bhaiya," or "didi"
Rotis
Colorful streets
Indian pickles
Reading a newspaper instead of online news
Speaking Hinglish
The Gulmohar tree outside my balcony
