Before I begin, I want to clarify that Bengaluru is a SUPER diverse city. The IT (information technology) industry and educational opportunities here attract Indians and foreigners from all around, so it's easy to find people here who lead vastly different lives. Now I only had access to Indians who spoke English. The many other Indians who speak only Hindi or Kannada were just not within my reach. That said, I still found some Indian friends with good details to share and lessons to teach, so here goes!
I interviewed three different Indians in Bengaluru to learn about what daily life is like for them. I will include details about all three of their lives, as well as several of their quotes, too. Enjoy!
