A lot of exciting (coupled with a very busy schedule) happening with 'real' life, so abandoning running this instance. Requesting all CharCha members to migrate to a server of your liking. Thank you for signing up even though you're mostly lurkers and hardly active, lol.

Still love the concept of the Fediverse and hope it gets a wider and wider adoption.

even went hiking in the hills near by

We'd do the same. Lived in the Senapati Bapat area on a ₹4k rent. It sure lived up to the 'Oxford of East' tag back then - young (and hip) crowd with students all around.

Wonder what urban planner thought it was a good idea to rope in investors and invite tech companies to #Pune. As it is, the city is surrounded by hills and had narrow roads with buildings nearly touching them. Hinjewadi was a good idea but one can safely assume it's now surrounded with apartments and most of the greenery is gone.

Last I visited, it took 25+ minutes to get from Symbiosis to (old building) Persistent systems - an auto commute of no less than 5 minutes back in the early 2000s.

Fresh and ripened Pomelos sold on the highway. Usually added to salad, as a digestive after meal, or as a snack. These were about the size of a man's palm - 4" radius. #Fruits #Vegan #Travel

Still find it strange why chayote (green gourd) hasn't picked up in most of India. I guess it's do to with local taste buds. Quite plentiful in these parts. Either had a boiled, as an addition with fried meat, or made into a salad. The leaves also make a delicious stew.
