A German woman living in Bengaluru has shared two things about the city that leave her puzzled: its traffic and rapidly changing weather. Her observations have prompted reactions from social media users, some of whom agreed with her take on life in the city.
You probably won’t find the same taste and flavours back in Germany. “Things in Bangalore that my German brain cannot process. So apparently, there are rules, but why is everyone driving like this? I cannot understand. And second, the weather, like it was sunny five minutes ago, but now it’s raining, like the weather changes super fast. After expressing her confusion over the traffic, Alice turned her attention to Bengaluru’s weather. Her short video highlighted two everyday aspects of Bengaluru that often become talking points among people living in the city: navigating its busy roads and adjusting to sudden changes in weather. One person advised her to focus instead on the city’s food, writing, “Ignore the weather and traffic. Just enjoy plenty of dosas, or dosé as they call them, South Indian meals, idlis, biryani, and more. Joking about the city’s unpredictable weather, a third person commented, “There will be rain in every season except the rainy season. Welcome to Bengaluru!
Another user agreed with Alice’s observation about the city’s weather and wrote, “The Bengaluru weather part is so accurate.”
She pointed out how quickly conditions can change in the city, saying that it had been sunny just five minutes earlier before it suddenly started raining.
