Kerala is a nice place to visit but I'd hate to actually live
there.
I'm probably biased though. ;-)
I concur. :)
Reasons?
I'd like to know too! I only spent a week there, during a salubrious
time of year - what are the downsides that I'm missing?
In my case (and I suspect the same is true of Madhu) I just have an
excessive number of relatives there. ;-)
No, it's not the number of relatives which matters, but the fact that
they all mind your business! I used to hate Chennai for this same
reason...still do.
Deepa.
Relatives do have one advantage though. They teach you two very
important things: how to develop a thick skin particularly in the
case of Madras Mamis who speak their mind; and how to fob people
off especially the ones who incessantly inquire about the next
stage in life-- when are you going to get married, when are you
going to have kids, when are you going to get kids married, etc.
etc. Sadly, I am finding a singular lack of intersection with
relatives here in Bangalore to the point where I am missing it!
