Salt Lake City

This morning conversation with mom:

She: “Ei soptahey tour-e jaas ni?”

Me: “Hnah. Gechhilam”

She: “Kobey phirli”?

Me: “Ei to porshu din. Tomay bollam na airport theke phone korchhi”?

She: “O! Kheyal korini. Ekhane bairey eto awaj sob somoy thik korey shona jay na. Kothay gechhili?”

Me: “Salt Lake City”

She (very very confused): “Tui ekhono Kolkata thekey berosni?”

Having lived in SLC for a few years, I can totally relate to the conversation !! Especially since Neil’s mom lives in Salt Lake, Kolkata!
