I am a 35 year old Danish guy, who's been abroad for several of years now, either traveling, studying or working.
I have just signed up for 2 year in Bangalore as a Liaison Office for a Danish bank (Danske Bank) working together with ITC Infortech.
I love to ski and surf, but since Bangalore is a bit short on snow and oceans, I have bought a 1959 Royal Enfield, and hope that others in BEC might share this interest?
I speak Danish, Spanish and English, but would like to pick up Hindi while being in Bangalore.
I have been in Bangalore for a month now, and would love to meet other expats for social occasions and also exploration of India outside Bangalore.
