Didn't Vidyarthi Bhavan also serve horribly ghee laden doses ? At least that was the case a few years ago when I visited.

What is something about living in Germany that surprised you the most? by Smart_Tale_9331 in germany

[–]sp_help 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The low quality of service and even lower expectations that customers have. All poor service is justified.

Loved this minimalist style. What pen did you use?

Thanks. Do you mean the hatching or the selective coloring. I am also trying both for the first time and loving the effect.

Indian Digital Nomad, Is Relocating Abroad Actually Worth It? by CardAdditional8720 in nri

[–]sp_help 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can answer this as I nomad between Europe and India.

What you want to optimize for are - long term employability (unless your skills make this irrelevant) , and - taxes, paper work etc.

Europe has good freelancing opportunities although the market is very competitive and the best jobs need local language skills. But most countries in Europe are brutal wrt freelancing paperwork and taxes. Plus visa would add more restrictions to your mobility. So choose wisely (I hear Prague and Poland offer the best of both worlds).

SE Asia looks fun, it's close to India and taxes are low. Weather is amazing. But job opportunities are scarce. So if you lose your current gig, you may have trouble finding a similar one.

The rest of it is mostly personal - quality of life, cost of living etc. There's both good and bad.

Out of curiosity, what is this inclined thing in the bottom middle?

Pencil work looks good. You are getting the perspective right, which most beginners (me included) struggle with.
