I was walking with Delia from their apartment to the main road yesterday afternoon, and we started talking about living in Karachi. I've always said that living in Karachi can prepare you to deal with everything - we're fiercely independent, stubborn and constantly running to get somewhere. Karachi is a melange of cultures - everyone speaks a different language, originally belongs to a different part of the country, and follows different religions and sects.

I've lived in Karachi since 1995. Being a Karachiite is a part of my personality now. Everytime I leave the city, the minute I arrive this incredible relief at finally being home takes over..

Yeah so true Saba,
Same is Mumbai.
Recently there was a conference held in Mumbai wherein delegates from Karachi shared their problems and found that they are so similar to Mumbai.
Thats why I say, India and Pakistan are so similar !!!
