Sathya Lakshmanan
Bangalore, India
Sathya Lakshmanan works as an Administrative Assistant at Explorinno. She was born and brought up in Bangalore. She completed a BA in Women’s Studies and lives in a joint family with her mother, father, and her sister’s family.
"My most memorable moment on the bus was seeing my school friend after a decade and recollecting our old memories."
Bangalore is a fast-growing city, and the cost of living is increasing steadily. Private transport options like taxis and autos now have dynamic pricing, and during peak hours it is often difficult to get these services, so she prefers public transport as it is more affordable.
She enjoys sitting by the window seat and finds travelling by public transport more comfortable and enjoyable. She takes this journey every day, but some moments still surprise her.
