Move to Silicon Valley
I recently moved to Silicon Valley, California from Boston, Massachusetts to join Qualcomm Inc. . It was a longest relocation after my move from Mumbai, India almost 9 years back. Relocation was quite drastic for me and Saloni. The way of life in the west coast is so different than east coast. Starting from weather to people to dressing etc. Everything is atleast 20-30% more expensive. But joining a fortune 10 company that is ranked as #8 best place to work in USA by Fortune magazine. I have my own office with a door and secretary outside. Its quite unbelievable...indeed...Once Saloni finds a job. It should be great and we can have same kind of life that we had in Boston. I have kept my MBA ambitions in the backdrop for now...
Work is quite challenging with engineers challenging me and I am learning so much everyday.
Everything else should settle down. Once I move to my permanent apartment.
Silicon valley is heaven for south asians with majority of workforce from South Asia this place is mini India with no discrimination, great Indian groceries and restaurants.
