Has anyone flown from India to USA ( BOM-EWR) with Emirates recently? I am not an American citizen or green card holder so wanted to check if it might be safe to take that route.

I think so. I have heard people traveling on Qatar and Emirates. Get the Telegram app and join the group India to USA travel if you have pointed questions on this topic.

Can you give link to that grp?

Hi everyone! I’m switching internally to my company’s LA office (from Boston). I only need to be in the office 1 or 2x per week and am toying around with the idea of living in San Diego and commuting up that one day. It’s likely be a 2.5hr drive or so each way, which seems like a lot. Can anyone speak to whether or not I’d go insane with that setup or if there are ways to make it more tolerable? I just have more family / friends in SD and would prefer to live there if possible :) thank you!!

I’m an American born desi, and came from an Indian Muslim family so I didn’t grow up learning much about castes.

I’m curious what the castes are for those in this bowl (filled with relatively successful people) and how it affected you? If you could change the obsession with castes, would you?
