Some of the differences




There are more differences between the U.S. and India than I ever would have originally considered. Everything from what the birds sound like when I wake up in the morning, to the unorganized driving decisions (it's like lanes don't exist here??? And everyone honks their horns all the time for no reason???), to the way outside smells, to the cell service, to the food on menus, to living alone for the first time, to the public transportation, the norms and customs, the clothes people wear, the languages and accents (the language barrier is huge omg), the animals walking around (COWS EVERYWHERE!!!), and so so so much more. I thought it would be easy to not get overwhelmed but I'm definitely learning it isn't that simple. Blogging helps, talking helps, and I'm sure after a week or so, it'll all start to feel much more normal.
