I didnt say i am moving - not yet at least! @Prerna - That's good tips - definitely some homework is required, and you need to be clear about your reasons. @Smitha - Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. Those reasons would figure prominently in my list as well. @IHM - true words! Welcome to Amreekandesi! @Indyeah - Practicalities are definitely important! @Amit - That just about sums it up :) @Dinesh - Exactly, it is what you make it to be, which is the point of this post. For Rajesh, the corruption/pollution made life hell, but for Akhil it was the idea of living at home that made him so excited about moving to India despite all the problems. @Roshni – This is Akhil we are talking about!

Like Prerna said if we return after a little homework and looking out for things that we need, it shouldnt really be a problem. It is up to Akhil to like it or not when he returns and that's what happened to Rajesh. and it was up to him to dislike it. It just depends on what Rajesh was looking at.
