I am still wondering if it’s a bit too early to start writing on Thrissur, having moved here only about a year and a few days ago. A visit to a small restaurant at west fort today evening for a cup of tea brought back in my mind the 30 odd days I spent at a bachelor accommodation near west fort and the small restaurants, I used to frequent for my breakfast and dinner. It was summer, just like it is now, extremely hot, and the room i got was at the top floor.

I was engaged to be married in one months time, a new job and a new location. Almost immediately comparison set in and which I cant help but still continue to compare Thrissur with Kochi, where I had spent almost 7 years and feel disappointed by the lack of vibrancy here.

But a few good things have happened in my life once moving to Thrissur. It may be again too early to attribute it to Thrissur, :-) most likely, it is due to the steadily weaning influence of the Rahu Dasa !!
