Front of guest house. Much of the site has recently been tarmacked / paved and the gardens are still beautifully tended by the women’s SHG.
It’s wonderful to be back at RUHSA in KVKuppam for the first time since 2019. So much has changed in that time. Dr Biswajit is head of RUHSA, Mr Allen is the new Vinoth, the lead administrator. Already there are real signs of great efficiency. When I was last here we knew that Dr Rita had initiated the building of a new guest house. At the time I was puzzled about that as a priority but now that we are guests staying in the finished building I can certainly commend it! The accommodation is modern and comfortable and comes with very helpful young men who do whatever is our bidding! So far, sorted wifi, cycles, hot water for shower, food, washing up.
This afternoon I think we will be accompanied to the police station at KVK to check in as alien visitors! Lovely to be back with the sounds ( crows, trains) and smells ( woodsmoke, spice, India!) and to be resurrecting my rusty old Tamil. Sacray ille- no sugar, very important as tea and coffee is sweetened as a matter of course. Nandri- thank you, accompanied by namaste gesture- much used. Time for our second curry meal of the day, 12.40 here, 7.19 in UK.
