I recently got an opportunity to visit the TVS Motor Campus at Hosur, TN. The purpose of the visit was to attend the graduate engineers get together. I hoped to meet the company and meet my future colleagues. And the best part of it was that it was an all expense paid trip :-) .....
I started out from Guwahati on Feb 11 at around 10 in the morning, reached airport and took off at 12. I had to change my flight at Calcutta and then we had a stopover in Hyderabad. I finally landed at B'lore airport around 5:45 PM. Even though I missed the B'lore airshow, a guy in the flight showed me the airstrip from which the airshow takes place .....
I took and auto and then a bus playing a southi movie to Hosur.... got down an Dargah and walked to the nice hotel the TVS people had booked for us. It was called "Sivaranjini Hotel" and was a really nice place, even though the food was not what I had expected. I met a few TVS guys at the reception itself and we went straight upto Room No 409 where we had a informal session will all other would be graduates and some of our immediate seniors. We had Debashish, Nishant, Shakti and Sushmita from TVS, with whom I had already interacted by email before. Meeting them was even better !!!
I got to know a lot of people from different colleges all over India. After the short interaction, we were served dinner, which was a typical south Indian thali. The dinner table discussion ranged from Music to the food and food joints I had been to while in my stay in Chennai :-)
After a short walk we retired to bed as we had to get up at about 7 and everyone was already jaded after the long travel. I had not much travel fatigue but lack of sleep and company showed me the way to bed :)
The best part of it all was the flight and the interaction .....
