I grew up in Tuticorin, a beach town in south India. Then I worked almost a decade in Chennai, another beach town. Agreed there is only one season there - sweaty season.
For the past five years I am living in Chandigarh. For a guy used to beach town, it is difficult to adjust in Chandigarh. It swings to extremes.
I see good things: at least I get to witness all four seasons :-)
