After my last post, things came to a head with the landlord and we moved from T. Nagar to Alwarpet, another neighborhood close to our office but on the other side of Mount Road. I'm temporarily living with the rest of the interns there while I wait for a bed and air conditioner to be installed in yet another apartment in Mylapore. That will be my fourth, and hopefully final, apartment in Chennai. I've been here all of 27 days, by the way.
As soon as the A/C is installed, I'll be moving in with one of the organization's employees. I'm getting a little anxious to get on with it, and am looking forward to moving into her place. Although the new apartment is really nice (much cleaner, much bigger, and run by a much more professional management company) it's still a guesthouse, and I would still be sharing it with 7 other people. The apartment building I'll be moving to is residential - full of families and much the experience of living in Chennai that I'm looking for. Tonight I'm going for a field visit to Thanjavur, the area where my organization is working in southern Tamil Nadu state. If all goes well, I'll be moving into the new place on Friday morning when we return.
My camera was stolen in Pondicherry this weekend, so no photos in the blog for a while :(
