HGTV goes to Varanasi, pt. 1

Our house, from the street. That's one of our bedroom windows visible on the second floor, with the big swamp cooler in front of it. (No, we don't use it. Somehow wind blown threw wet hay doesn't seem like a particularly good idea, especially not here.)

A view of our yard. Behind the papaya trees you can see the carpenter building our bed and Dr. M's garage/out-building/servants quarters.

A view of the street from our front door.

And a view of our balcony, which is off the living room.

Looks a lot like Hawaii, huh Val?
