Bannerghatta to Whitefield. 3 hours one way, 6 hours total per day. Multiple bus changes, state and private transport.

Still made it pretty productive for myself, used to work and read books on the way. Reached home and passed out in an hour, used to have no energy left. Same routine next morning at 6:30 am.
When I was in Bangalore, had been to EY UB city office. It took me 1 hour 45 min to go and while returning it was approx 2 hours. Total around 4 hours and if it rains in the evening the time get worst. Maximum I remember it was 5 hours total commute time while it was pouring heavily.
From Bellandur to Bay area.
I used to travel 1.5 hours everyday
