    Hi Shanvy,

    I wanted to vent out my feelings towards R2I and being an NRI. Happy to know that there are so many sailing in the same boat. I have just posted a new thread with pros and cons that I felt. If you think its apt to be merged with this post, kindly feel free to do it.

    1. where you returned from. - USA
    2. when did you return.. - Early 2008
    3. where are you settled - Chennai
    4. is it your hometown. - No
    5. how well have you adjusted as a family - Family wise no difference as we lived away from parents and in-laws
    6. did you return with a job (if working), if so how do you like working in india - Horrible. That's the main thing that pushed us back from India.
    7. how is to come back and be part of the extended family if you are not living in a joint family. - N/A
    8. how old are your kids if you have kids and how do they like india/or the place you are back to. - N/A

    ILT,

    Hugs. will reply in the other thread too. that is one of the reasons a few of my friends are hesitating to return back. you know the pity is when people who just go out for 6months/ 1 year find it difficult to acclimatise here..and i am sure others who are out for more than a decade do need to tread with caution and lot of plan..and that is the purpose of this thread.

    may be i should have added the number of years they were outside india too.
