Ah! Read this post here.. reminded me of my traveling woes *read adventure*
I am one of those people who perpetually get lost.. even in their own area! Its been like 3 years , I have been in Bangalore.. I still can get lost *sigh*
To add to it.. my sister.. like my dad has amazing sense of direction! I remember initially when we had moved in.. me and my sister used to go to Indian Institute of world culture and use their library extensively.. I had come there earlier than my sis * to find a place to live and all had traveled around too* but it was she who directed me to the place.. with help of instructions from Aunt.. she had not seen it before.. I had *boo hoo hoo*
And then it happened once.. that we fought.. sis and I.. So I had to go alone.. that was a month later.. not surprisingly I got lost...
Well I thought I am the one of my kind or something.. or may be just that I will adjust as days went by... no such luck
Recently.. me and a friend were searching for a CCD thats like 2 min walk away from the place we met.. As it happened..we walked like for 40 min.. then boarded a rickshaw.. to reach that place and end up paying 20 bucks.. We might have as well boarded it initially dont you think ?
Me getting lost is like legendary :( no wonder my mobile bill is so high.. and hence I prefer rickshaws.. even when I know they charge me more.. when you cant do without.. you might as well ignore it right ?
