Long Address

Me: Whew! That is quite an address you have there, my friend.

Indian Patron: Yes, it is quite long.

Me: Is that common to have addresses like that in Mumbai?

Indian Patron: Well, Mumbai is just the city. The whole country has mailing addresses like that.

Me: Seriously?

Indian Patron: Oh, yeah. It starts with the flat number, then the name of the building, then the street you are on, then the part of the city you are in, then the city itself, and then the postal code.

Me: Jesus.

Indian Patron: Yours are much shorter. It is nice.
