Income tax. On Her Majesty's orders!
This world appearance is a confusion: even as the blueness of the sky is an optical illusion. I think it is better not to let the mind dwell on it, but to ignore it.

But you don't see a lot of cricket in the UK. It is the second preference for people here. Football (Soccer mee bhasha lo) is the number one game.
---

you are wrong.....

just reach out to local county club...and there will 20 teams playing at all levels and ages.....

playing cricket in UK is a must experience.....aa Telugu sambarala sabhalu apesi......reach out.....all my friends....play.....and the more you go out to counties...the better you get to play......

asalu england lo grassy grounds lo....swinging ball and playing in whites.....too good.....

ofcourse....the best is in yorkshire....

6. Schools - UK lo unnantha density ledhu anukunta US lo. For instance, maa inti nundi east velthe 200 yards lo oka primary school. South lo 200 yards lo oka primary school. North lo 300 yards lo oka secondary school unnaayi UK lo. Daantlo oka school catchment area loki maa illu raadhu. US lo catchment areas peddhavi anukunta primary schools ki kooda. Also, US lo school buses unnaayi. (Big positive). UK lo no school buses at all. Either walk or car lo drop cheyyaali. (Maybe because ikkada catchment is so small you can almost always walk ani undocchu). Also UK lo mostly middle schools are gone. Primary extends from Reception to Grade 6. Then it is high school. Grade three lo middle school ku shift avadam chaalaa rare.
----



this is because the kids catchment area school is calculated by the number of steps they can take....crossing minimum roads....and signals....ila edho undhi.....


all other points are your experience......

for me....UK rocks.....and the next civilisation is at a stone's throw......europe is a relaxed bit of land...in my view.....

3 Weeks vunna London lo(Eastham, Canary wharf and cockwood something friend vunde place) felt expensive, little congested and crowded.




bhayya deeni badulu hyderbad patha basthi(East ham) lo untu Hitech city ki vellunte bagundedi ..

UK is outside london .. its great place to live (Having lived in US for long time) .. very expensive but if you have decent money , your life style will be different.

Yes racism is there and its there in US as well (When you go out of desi areas) ..

I lived in US for almost 10 years .. its a big rat race .. atleast my life is all around desis , same potlucks , temple, community get together .. only discussions was politics and movies .. very few people talk about sports ( i used to follow NFL) ..

When i got a chance to move to UK , I was skeptical but wanted to try and now i feel lucky to take that decision ..

My lifestyle has changed and circle has changed.. Started going out with locals .. summar balls, wine tasting , theatre, comedy shows etc...

Atleast for me personally, I liked UK better than US (Lived in dallas, South carolina, Minneapolis)

Country is small , so is everything. but does it really matter other than boasting to your community about how big my house is and my garden is ????

I might move to US in next few years purely because of Career growth .. I will ceiling here in UK and next step would be US to grow in corporate ladder.. which i am not very keen on but will do i suppose.

But you don't see a lot of cricket in the UK. It is the second preference for people here. Football (Soccer mee bhasha lo) is the number one game.
This world appearance is a confusion: even as the blueness of the sky is an optical illusion. I think it is better not to let the mind dwell on it, but to ignore it.

Wales is a separate country boss. England is a separate country. Scotland is a separate country. Northern Ireland is a separate country.

UK is a group of all these countries.

England = England

I don't know those details yet because I am just starting out here in the UK and not yet in a league that can buy houses. Maybe film fan, Havingfun can commet on it.

According to some website (like Rocket Mortgage in the US), I am apparently eligible for a housing loan of 95,000 GBP. The house I am renting currently is 620K :D :D So, yeah I can't even dream right now about buying a house.

Earning potential US is definitely much better. Ikkada 80K GBP package vasthe aahaa oho annatlu. (There are always exceptions but overall). Cut 40% from that and give it to the Queen.

Antha interest undadhanukunta. Not much of controversial content in the post :D
This world appearance is a confusion: even as the blueness of the sky is an optical illusion. I think it is better not to let the mind dwell on it, but to ignore it.

My personal views only. Not generalising.

1. Everything is big in the US. "Maaku station chaalaa daggara raa... just five miles anthe!". UK lo annee miniature version of US laa untaayi.

2. UK lo driving is more sedate and laid back - compared to the US. Speed limits, lane discipline, lane hoarding etc - UK is better.

3. US feels more like India than the UK. Great atmosphere for Indians. Indian stuff, food, aacharaalu, vyavahaaraalu, anuraagaalu, aapyaayathalu annee unnaayi US lo. Indians will feel right at home in the US. UK lo alaa undadhu. (Maybe certain pockets in London - yes but overall - not even close)

4. People are friendlier in general in the US. Not just Indians. Road meedha velthunte eye contact ayithe smile ivvadam - small talk cheyyadam etc. UK lo rare idhi. Oka vela small talk start ayinaa entha thondaragaa aapesi thama pani thaamu chesukundhaamaa ani untaaru. Rental car agency lo adakkundaane upgrades vasthaayi. UK lo vaadi kaallu pattukoni brathimalaadinaa use undadhu.

5. Restrooms :D lo over usage of paper towels. Ekkada air dryers kanipichavu US lo. UK lo opposite. Paper towels ekkado rare gaa kanipisthaayi. Wherever you go, you find air dryers only.

6. Schools - UK lo unnantha density ledhu anukunta US lo. For instance, maa inti nundi east velthe 200 yards lo oka primary school. South lo 200 yards lo oka primary school. North lo 300 yards lo oka secondary school unnaayi UK lo. Daantlo oka school catchment area loki maa illu raadhu. US lo catchment areas peddhavi anukunta primary schools ki kooda. Also, US lo school buses unnaayi. (Big positive). UK lo no school buses at all. Either walk or car lo drop cheyyaali. (Maybe because ikkada catchment is so small you can almost always walk ani undocchu). Also UK lo mostly middle schools are gone. Primary extends from Reception to Grade 6. Then it is high school. Grade three lo middle school ku shift avadam chaalaa rare.

7. Technology/Gadgets - asalu comparison kooda anavasaram. US is miles ahead of UK.

8. Cost of living - UK >>>> US ; Earnings US >>>> UK

9. Racism - No personal experience in the US. Kaabatti no comments. UK lo konni bad experiences unnaayi especially nothern England lo. Wales feels more like the US - friendlier people. Scotland and Ireland - no idea.

10. UK is closer to India of course. 8 hours flight to Hyderabad. :-) Can't beat this US :D

11. Indian Cinema - No comparison at all. US >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> UK

12. Shopping/Malls - US >>>>>>>> UK.

13. Vegetarian food (Outside Indian food) - UK >>>>>> US. You can just walk into any restaurant and have at least 3 to 4 main course dishes that are vegetarian.

14. Finally, airport security/immigration - At least JFK >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LHR. Even with an Indian passport, I could use the automated lanes in JFK. LHR lo 2 hours in immigration lane though I live there!
