Sunday 12/ 20 - Moving into Bajipura
Today I spent the day at home in the village, and in the afternoon I was
dropped off in Bajipura. This small village was where the Nanubhai
fellows are living. We sat down together for dinner. Drew made a great dinner. On weekdays they have a cook who comes to make lunch and dinner. I enjoyed moving into the house. I was excited to hang out with the fellows. They live gujarati style. They take showers by boiling water, using a bucket. The shower runs cold water. They have met the neighbors, they go to dinners that local people invite them to, and they are known in the community. They are well known for running in the early morning and late evening through 3 villages and sugarcane fields. They are training for a marathon. So tonight, Kirsten and Meg went on a run. Everyone prepped for the next day. I covered myself in bug spray. I was staying in Meg's room. It reminded me of a college dorm. We slept with the fan on. The bungalow is located on a major road. All night long, trucks drive by carrying goods being transported throughout India. The trucks in India blow horns that play a song. They are loud. They are loud enough to get animals to move out of the way. Good thing I am a deep sleeper, the noise did not bother me at all! I had a great night's rest.
