My parents are from Bangalore.

And we're Tam Brahms too! (Except we speak Kannada, Hindi, and Tamil.)

Tamil Brahmins basically means that you're a Brahmin (one of the four 'castes' in Old India.) As Brahmins, we represent the caste of knowledge. These people, in the ancient world, were the gurus who taught people skills. Since we're the most learned, we're considered the highest class.

sorry I'm a mythology/history nerd
