Moving out from Delhi after business school was phenomenal in many respects, but I have'nt been able to create a similar microcosm of good friends. I do meet people and many more than I met in Delhi thanks to C - but they get lost somewhere between my market research visits, Mumbai traffic, out of town in-laws arriving, alternate weekend flybacks & the monsoon OR are they lost because I really don't care...
