About Pune

The first things u register about this place. Im listing them as and when i remember them. From weird to the mundane, they are all here!!

-The language. It's a mixture of hindi, marathi and english giving a new lingua franca understandable, but nonetheless, weird.
-Six seaters. These are the mode of transport, now that the transport board is going through troubled waters. Wherever u want to go, u have to know which 6 seater u have to take, along with the places where they are available. They are reliable in most places, but u have to know the routes well.
-Names.Names of both people and places sound strange and may cause a laugh or two. Names mostly end in le or re,e.g. Karle, Kale, Tikone, etc. Names of places are no better. Bhosri sounded pretty funny when i first heard it(still sounds funny!).
