Anyways, I reached the official guest house after arriving in Pune and rushed back to the office immediately. I met the contact person in the office. By the grace of God, I got a desk here unlike my previous project where I worked for around 8-9 months without a desk. But then, it was still a minor issue there. After some initial frequent changes, I was finally assigned to a project. For the rest of week there was nothing to be done, as everyone was new to this project.
During the first weekend, I went out and looked for accommodation and other things, I needed to arrange. I couldn’t find much options near the Office. I moved around the city to re-discover the landmarks (according to me). Prabhat Lodge on J M Road, Garware Chowk, Kamath & Prithvi restaurants near Kothrud, all of them still exist. Pune has not changed during last 15 months. Roads, Transport, Food options are same as before. I arranged the accommodation with help of a good college-time friend, thanks a ton to him.
I also visited M G Road and had Vada-Pao near J J Garden. Surprisingly, Vada-Pao didn’t taste bad this time & Lime Juice was just too good. Walking Plaza on M G Road is a nice concept followed on Sundays.
Another week passed on in office without much of activity, but during the weekend, I shifted to my flat and started setting up things. Though, I was alone, it was not a problem this time to set up. Mainly it’s a furnished flat and market is nearby; food is the only issue. Anyways, experiences cum adventures I’ve had at Bangalore were helping!
What’s more in store for me at Pune, I’m yet to discover.
