Andaman man shares how Bengaluru made him 'better' in wholesome Reddit post

Bengaluru: A man from Andaman shared how the city of Bengaluru embraced him and made him "better". In the heartwarming post that appeared on Reddit, the man stated that he moved to India's tech capital about three years ago with a suitcase, a lot of hope and a little fear. 

The post was titled, "Completed 3 Years in Bengaluru - From Fear to Fondness." He stated that moving to a city like Bengaluru, with no job or dear ones around,  from a quiet and isolated place like Andaman was like “jumping into the deep end". Despite having no prior experience living alone, he rented an apartment in the city and experienced the ups and downs of independent living.

Speaking of how he enjoys the city now, the man revealed that he cruised on his two-wheeler, embracing the sights, sounds and smells of the city. He also touched on the messy side of Bengaluru, but divulged that those factors did not impact his love for the city. 

“Traffic is a mess. Language can be a barrier. Road rage exists. Cops aren’t angels...what makes Bengaluru different for me is the heart it has," said the man. He added, "The pink flower season that makes you forget you're stuck in traffic. The stranger who gives you directions with a smile. The Kannadiga friends who made me feel at home and fed me like family. This city might not be perfect, but it’s full of good people and great stories.”
