You know,I always want to recollect the nice moments of my childhood and one of them was visiting to Bangalore in the early 2000s.
My chikkamma was a resident of Thyagarajanagara in Basavanagudi.So a visit to Gandhi Bazar was a must.I still find the pieces ofy childhood there.
So on my 26th Birthday I wanted to be a good version of myself, giving my pixel for repair and staying offline for a day without office work (Yes I took the first leave of the year ,but not from being a mom as my Aprameya wakes me up at 7 with no mercy) ,had nice coffee, listened to songs of my choice, read a bit, tried to figure out the ukulele which Kartik gifted me ( I am still learning) and asked Tejaswi from Siddapur, who is younger to me by 3-4 years but really one of the sweet encounters who talks about music, books and just loves Basavanagudi.
So she came over, we had aloo paratha which my cook Raji had prepared (I loved aloo paratha when I was in college) wore a white chudi which Kartik had got from Nainital and as usual appu in carrier , we headed to Gandhi Bazar.
We started in Gandhi Bazar, had a soup from Supouhtik of Aadusoge and it was not so good.
Then I took my Canon out and started a photo walk.Also I purchased a wired bag for my grocery shopping and I love veggies ( I realised it when I fell ill in post partum with calcium and iron deficiency and horrible dark circles).
Gelatiyaru
I have a very basic model and people get conscious and even asked me if I am from any youtube channel.Appu was sleeping and some aunty even said in phone that "ಫಾರಿನ್ ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಮಗು ಮಲಗಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗೋ ತರ ಇಲ್ಲೊಬ್ಬರು ಬಂದಿದಾರೆ".
We then went to Ankita and I had a brain freeze moment and could not buy much.Then I wanted to take photos of Model House Street and finally could witness one 🥺.
so this is one of the model houses by 1940 where the government had set a model of how a house should be.There were 150 houses and over the time there are hardly left any.
We also visited temples and visiting old temples give me some peace of my mind and I appreciate the architecture always .
Also these were the pictures which I took during my walk and I know I am still learning.
PS:No hate to the hype for Vidyarthi Bhavan but the Dose is not that great.
