Walking down Flowers Road on a Saturday morning, you'll find bakeries just opening and flower vendors setting up their jasmine strings. The landmarks feel like old friends—the corner store where you've been buying groceries for years, the Pathala Ponniamman Temple on Barnaby Road where evening prayers draw neighbors in quiet devotion. The small restaurants with ceiling fans have witnessed countless family celebrations, and the street food stalls somehow taste better because you've been going there forever.
Yes, peak-hour traffic can test your patience, and finding parking near your favorite spots takes some creativity—but these are the small prices you pay for living somewhere that feels less like a location and more like an extension of home.
