The cost of living

/ * Item in progress * /

How much money does it take to live in Bangalore? The cost of living is interesting for a student? Was a good purchasing power? Can you buy a house for 100 € in India? But where is Ornicar? When there is inflation? What budget should I plan to live there? What's worth to be purchased before returning to France? Que faut-il acheter avant de partir sous peine de subir une vendetta de la part de son banquier ?

Toutes ces question et bien d’autres encore trouveront des réponses dans les lignes qui suivent. J’espère que vous y trouverez tout ce dont vous avez besoin pour évaluer le niveau de vie que vous pourriez vous offrir en venant à Bangalore.

Disclaimer : Nous somme le 16 Janvier 2008 et tous les prix que je donne correspondent a cette date. Comme vous aller le voir plus loin les prix augmentent vite en Inde et il se peut que vous deviez revoir votre budget a la hausse si vous lisez cet article ne serait-ce qu’un an après. De plus ce sont ceux que j’ai noté Bangalore, the second most expensive city in India after Mumbai. If only the rent you can easily divide the price by two other cities (even 6 million as Chennai). Needless to say, branded goods does not change by cons rate by region.

All that to say that the indications are for informational purposes only although checked with my own eyes.

Note: This site is a veritable ode to the spelling mistakes but do not blame me for writing 2 euro without "s". European conventions made this word unchanged since many EU countries do not use a plural "s". The Rupee

:

The single currency across the country is the Indian Rupee INR currency symbol.

As for the dollar amounts are noted with the abbreviation of the currency front, example: Rs.800.

cents are called paisas but will not risk using it often.

As of today a euro is worth a little over 58 rupees. You can follow the exchange rate on http://www.xe.com . If you want the changes you can make in airports, malls and other tourist sites. But the best solution is to do with a colleague who often goes to France. My tailor who travels in Europe I was also offered to take me back to euros at no cost.

Do not think in euro

When we arrived in India spends his time mentally convert euro prices (sometimes even in France) but we must banish the habit. It is interesting to come to India for low cost of living, do not judge prices by drawing a parallel with France. Necessarily all will seem cheaper and you'll have. I see lots of foreigners who think like that, "Anyway it is only 2 €" and spend twice as much money they should. If the controller vendor-of-bus tickets do not make your 2 rupees on a ticket of 10, you say he does not have to be dishonest. Of course these are only 0035 euro but it is a matter of principle and give them more of a kid to do everything in restaurants.

Exception must be made for the items you want to return to France. Here of course, do not hesitate to compare prices.

Airfare:

to negotiate with your firm. Otherwise it is very variable depending on time of year and the airline. The range est comprise entre 550 et 1100€

Visa :

Le visa pour l’Inde coute 60 depuis la France. Vous trouverez absolument toutes les informations sur les visas tourisme, étudiant, business et autre cartes PIO ou OCI dans ce précédent post.

Logement : /* A venir */

Restauration : /* A venir */

Faire ses courses : /* A venir */

Transport : Je vous renvoi encore vers un de mes précédents articles pour tout savoir sur les moyens de locomotion a Bangalore et leurs tarifs. Si je devais make a total I would say that wanting to enjoy the city takes between 20 and 60 € a month to move in your ability to prefer the bus to rickshaws.

Clothing: / * * Coming /

Phone:

India is one of those many countries that makes you realize that the pricing policy of the three French mobile operators akin to racketeering. Here there is no agreement on the size and the salt tax which will carry the pigeons subscribers since the market is highly competitive with Airtel and Hutch (now Vodafone into the fold) in mind. Staying less than a year I have not took one of the many proposed benefits package but a single rechargeable card valid for 12 months + option to Rs.80 (1.4 €) for the same price to all states and not just Karnataka. Then I buy refills Rs.333 (5.7 €) available in all the tiny grocery store that can be found every 100 meters. And Rs.333, it is not complicated, I have a credit of 333 minutes. Yes yes you read correctly, over the phone for 5:30 under 6 €. If you have lots of friends in India, go for a package that will bring to 10 paisas per minute is just over 10 cents an hour!

I said all along that the telephone infrastructure is excellent in all respects. I've never been in default coverage of the city, the voice quality or network availability. The only problems occur in open country when I travel between Bangalore and Chennai but nothing prohibitive for everyday life.

Internet

You've read the last paragraph? Bon bah is the opposite for the internet. The 1Meg happens just for 50 € a month, the lines cut across time and tenders Triplay remain the stuff of science fiction and not as a troublemaker Free to stabilize the market. A real shame for a country who is running for the # 1 Global IT and ICT.

Computer and Hi-teck products:

Contrary to popular belief it's less cheap than in France. Not much but buy your laptop or external hard drive in France you will not find better here. For products of large brands in world prices are applied and therefore there is no real difference. However, playing around with the exchange rate and the margin of the seller you may be able to have 10-15% discount on a phone or digital camera. Nice but nothing extraordinary.

Species:

A liter is a 1 € pile. It is not much cheaper than France and that poses many problems for development. But when one is at the head of a government that shows 9% growth can afford to squander billions to pay the difference to suppliers to keep a liter below the $ 1 50.

Alcohol and cigarettes:

I'm not fond of beer but I saw that the 2L jug of beer in a pub deemed to pay Rs.200 (1.7 €). For great cocktails in a luxurious restaurant it will cost you only Rs.100 (1.5 €). I do not smoke but colleagues from Business Objects told me it was cheap, less than 1 €. By cons I know nothing about brands of tobacco but they told me it was everything. For bide needless to say that the price is almost nil: Rs.7 Package.

Travel: (private fluff inside)

After your last tuition EPITA and thousands of hours in DM, the internship is also a way to forget gcc and made Sunday afternoon. The best solution remains the weekends at the sea in Kerala or Tamil Nadu (less beautiful beaches anyway). For a round trip by bus berth conditioning more comfortable than the SM14-r4p2 it will cost you € 16 on http://www.kpn.com or http://www.customerneedz.com . Onsite life is two times cheaper than Bangalore and you'll have time to think about your friends in TIG feet in the water. Guaranteed 100% compliant SUSv3 NO.

a Budget:

Well now that you know the prices, trying to make a budget to live successfully in Bangalore. The superfluous people varies enormously so it will be to provide more. This is not what I spent, it that would advise anyone who would like to come do his internship at B'lore.

Renting a nice 3-room apartment with a roommate with two other people: 150 €

Business Dining at noon in the house at night but still 3 restaurants per week: 80 €

Two solid hours of phone per month: 2 €

Internet (vital for a geek) divided between the 3 roommates: 15 €

Using the bus company over many alternate exits bus / rickshaw: 35 €

So that's € 300 per month need to live in Bangalore. Le minimum légal d’un stage étant de 378€ vous pouvez envisager un stage en Inde sans perdre d’argent. Avec un peu de négociation vous pourrez peut-être avoir 600€ ce qui vous permettrais de vous payer des week-ends à la plage deux fois par mois, de ne manger qu’au restaurant, de faire du shopping… Je ne parle même pas des stagiaires EPITA de fin d’études avec leurs salaires insolents qui n’auront même pas à prévoir de budget.

Vous voici désormais armé pour préparer un budget. Si vous voulez connaitre les tarifs d’autres produits laissez un commentaire ou écrivez moi, moi email est disponible dans mon profil in the right menu.

fruiting

In France, I were at war against the clementines.
However, every year I wanted to patch up and try one to see. But each time it was the same disappointment. Juicy and tasteless or so full of glitches that there are more than flesh. At the end of patience, I finally décidé de les rayer une fois pour toutes de ma carte alimentaire.

Depuis que je réside en Thailande, ou les fruits sont étincelants de sucre, je me suis propose de tenter la chance.
J’étais déjà passe outre mon appréhension des visages exotiques qu’offrent certains spécimens particulièrement surprenants, et ramboutans et mangoustans ont finis par me convaincre de revenir sur mes positions.
En fait, il ne s’agit pas vraiment de clémentines en Thailande, ni de mandarines (je n’ai jamais su faire la différence, y’en a-t-il?), mais d’oranges qui en ont la taille et un peu le goût. Elles sont oranges et vertes et se pèlent aussi easily than their cousins.

At first, even if it seemed that the Thai oranges had a better chance of satisfaction, I had to admit that some were not the height. And now the specter of a fracture is hoisted again to my taste.
But in the habit of eating more fruit, I began to take the time it takes to peel them, prepare them.
Soon, eating a fruit became a full-fledged activity. Pause for a few moments dedicated to the conditioning of the food, and the nature of things about me. A wave
time during which you focus a little, but that does not let his mind wander, or we have the time or project themselves, or turn around.
So we can quite enjoy the "fruit of our effort," and we savored the moment of encounter with a taste that we know, but that does not stop us please and seduce us.

This teaching, which continues to mature in my mind, allowed me to accept the bad taste of some specimens, and not formally provided to me.
In Paris it's decided, I reconnect with the clementines.
I will take time to appreciate them.

Poblaki 2

My stay allowed me to better understand where children Karen, with whom I share my life for over six months.

They are 13 to come to the village and surrounding area
Annrak, Annuporn M, M Buanapha, Chutima F, F Kanika, Mittchai F, M Nuntikan, Pramote F, M Preawpan, Suchat F, M Supap, M Worachit, Yolada M and F (the letter following the comma denotes the sex).


During my stay over there, I was greeted at Worachit in a charming small shack, built entirely of wood, or reign off without a friendly atmosphere.
In fact, whenever I went there, sat a round meeting in the main room. They were discussing rolling tobacco grown in the village, in sheets I do not know what tree, smoking, sometimes from a glass of rice wine, "ossi" in prakenyan (the language spoken by a subdivision of the tribe Karen, Karen and incidentally all the region where I live).

A slight wooden partition separates the room with parents in the main room, which serves as both kitchen living room, bedroom, guest room, dining room, or bathroom. Everything is open on the piece of land that the family shares with another, of which there are housing about twenty meters.

Worachit n’est pas le seul a avoir un invite. Son grand frère a convie des amis a venir passer les fêtes avec nous, et nous sommes huit a installer nos couches dans un bout du salon, sous l’autel dédié au Christ, une fois venu le moment de dormir.
Les toilettes sont a l’extérieur. Une cabane isolée en contrebas qu’il vaut mieux savoir situer avant de s’aventurer en pleine nuit.

Il a fait froid durant la nuit du 30, et je me réveille très tôt, grelottant sous mes trois couvertures. Après un court moment de répit que le sommeil m’accorde, engloutissant a nouveau la sensation de froid qui m’assaille, je me lève pour me trouver nez a nez avec un énorme pig we will share with family. Behind the animal, I use a basin sink to wash my teeth and face.
rested.

Which Finger Amethyst Can Wear

Moving to Bangalore has

Preamble: This section does that focuses on the case Bangalore. Overall it's a bit the same in all major cities but the ricks are still far more honest in Mumbai as they systematically refuse the meter in Chennai.

The Bus:

many lines, but also deprived public, tour the city and the bus is the best way to get around if you know where you are going. In fact, except the line number it is all written in Kannada and it is therefore ask the driver the route. There is no plan and no lines in the street does not know the network mapping. Also be aware that buses spend only in large arteries so it is with experience that one learns to master the means of locomotion. Their frequency, however, is very good (one every two minutes for someone who spends all from my house) but they are still bungs between 18 and 21H. When I say packed I'm not just talking to people close, it's downright human grapes hanging outside the bus.

Stops are quite distant from each other but we can raise and lower when you want because the doors are always open. Warning this does not mean that the driver will stop. When there is little traffic or an intersection is quite simple but I routinely see guys jumping a bus running more than 20km / h. I've already done the thing in reverse too: a huge sprint followed by a good jump millimeter (and a prayer that the bus does not slow down with a snap) all without putting your hands on the floor al'atterrissage in the corridor to preserve the white shirt.

As Bangalore is a city in perpetual modernization new buses made their appearances. They are similar to those found in Paris (the large air conditioning and more) but the price is simply twice. Exit the ride uncomfortable and the crowd (yeah the price is prohibitive for many) and hello comfortable seats. As we approach the subject it is nice to see that the controllers (one for each bus at all times, he comes to sell you the ticket) do not pay people who do not have much money and disabled or blind. Transport is thus implicitly free the poor.

Advantages:

+ Very cheap

+ Frequency passages

+ Fast ultimately

disadvan tages e :

- need to know where we are going and which bus you must take

- Uncomfortable because of suspensions nonexistent seats spartan and the crowd (after 18h)

Rate: is based on distance and decreasing. Count 2 / 3 rupees (5 cents) for a trip during less than 5 km and the maximum is 12 roupies (20 centimes) pour parfois 25 km.

Le Rickshaw (aka auto rickshaw, aka rick, aka tempo, aka tuk-tuk):

Le confort des bus n’a jamais été un problème pour moi mais il reste que les rickshaws sont pratiques. Ils connaissent la route pour vous et il y en a absolument partout. C’est donc le moyen de transport parfait pour se déplacer quand il faut faire trop de changements de bus, que l’on est pressé ou qu’il est tard.

/* Description de l’engin et photos à venir */

In a perfect world there would be no problems and everyone would follow the law:

Rs 6 per km day and 9 night (22h-6h30 approx)

Theoretically therefore there is no negotiation possible, but good theory in India ...

Often it is necessary to negotiate prices and many parameters come into play

Advantages:

+ is the mode of transport easier

+ No need to know the city

+ The vehicle is very manoeuvrable and sneaks not too bad in traffic

+ can go to 3 in (4 squeezing) which allows to share costs with his friends.

disadvan tages e :

- It's not expensive but far from being free either.

- It is therefore better able to negotiate

Rate: Ultimately we must therefore take about Rs.30 (50 cents) for a short ride and 150 (2.6 e) for long.

The Taxi

In addition there are real rickshaw taxis in India. The problem is there are no taxi written on it, then how will recognize? A color that is invariably white of course! Okay this does not help much as intelligence, the real hallmark is the backplate which is yellow. This is not necessarily convenient to recognize but anyway taxis are used only in certain cases. Indeed they are 2 more expensive than rickshaws and there is less limiting their use. However you can book a to advance to take you at the airport at 3am (which I'll do shortly) and how they work for companies they are for Most lot more honest than the rickshaw. In addition, some are small van that can accommodate 6 people and a lot of baggage that can make them even more interesting if you are numerous and charges.

Advantages:

+ Reliable and honest

+ Ability to book

+ Not so expensive if there is more than 5

+ can go to 3 in (4 squeezing) which allows to share the cost with friends.

disadvan tages e :

- Dear

- Harder to find but there are still many

Rate: At least Rs.12, 20 cents per km. Between Business Objects and the central station (one km 20aine) I know it takes is Rs.300 5 e .

The bus company:

To overcome the problems of transport and reduce traffic jams almost all large firms in Bangalore have a network of buses for their employees. At Business Objects there are 11 lines that crisscross the city by getting employees home before the morning and evening redepositing them. At 8 and 17H The city is the scene of a ballet bus placards bearing Intel, Infosys, IBM and Accenture. Through this service the transportation problem is limited to evenings and weekends.

Only 300 employees currently at BOBJ India and so there is a daily bus pass. We can not choose the times when you go to work. Nothing dramatic, since we can always take the Rickshaw and that companies that have large numbers such as SAP, HP, Siemens, HSBC ... offer several crossings a day.

Advantages:

+ No need to worry about are commuting

+ Punctual

+ Fast + Cheap

+ The friendly atmosphere on the bus since we know more and more people with time

disadvantages e deny s:

- need to work in a large company

- One pass per day if it does not work in a very large company

Rate: Next the company. Rs.970 (17 e) for Business Objects. I think it's free at Siemens.

Metro: No there is no metro in Bangalore, at least not yet since it is planned for 2011 but I still wanted to mention it. However there are only two lines expected at first contrast with the huge network of Delhi. More info here.

Rent a car: I did not test e but it is possible to rent a bike for 4 th day. I have no more information for those who want to rent a car.
