Yes sometimes the weat...you dont exaggerate at all. Yes sometimes the weather can be harsh. Sometimes i feel like i have lack of sleep and sometimes my bones are in pain sometimes i feel like i am a 80-years-old person (clearly i am not!). But what can you do? Delhi is like that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06901911417745595374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064437222553283194.post-4440387035769366122012-10-19T10:48:06.525+05:302012-10-19T10:48:06.525+05:30The other Indian metropolitan areas (like Mumbai, ...The other Indian metropolitan areas (like Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Bangalore) are a million times better. My husband's family lives in Mumbai and Hyderabad and the attitude, culture, and even the amount of pollution in the air in those areas are far more conducive to human living standards. <br /><br />I've pretty much hear any Indian person who's not from Delhi (or North India in general) shudder when I say I live there.Kay in Indiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12174622707556410259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064437222553283194.post-22653030082156358902012-10-17T21:04:11.895+05:302012-10-17T21:04:11.895+05:30same here. summer in India truly seems never endin...same here. summer in India truly seems never ending and exhausting. that's from my memories. i no longer "enjoy" Indian summers as I am back in Germany after 15 years. I remember how I cherished rainy days and cloudy skies... I also can fully recommend to head up towards Himachal Pradesh e.g. Dharamsala is cool and beautiful.

I too experience...I don't think you exaggerate. I too experienced similar issues living in North India (Amritsar). It's a fatigue unlike any other. Between the shock your body absorbs from walking on concrete to the fluids your body loses while sweating, the whole system is very rough on a foreigners body. <br /><br />I did learn to eat differently and monitor my water intake which helped quite a bit. Also, I changed the type of clothes I wore to the Indian thinner cotton versions. These allow so much more air through and keep your body from always being overheated. <br /><br />If you travel a lot, try to take a little time to head up toward Himachal Pradesh, it's already cooled down considerably there. If you want to avoid the snow, head toward Amritsar. We got all the wind off of the snow and the feel of snow in December but no actual snow. It could be a nice change for a few days.APPIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15968673569274372047noreply@blogger.com
