Ghar ki talash me: In search of a house!

Yesterday, Rebecca,Tapesh (her facilitator), and I spent most of the the day looking for a place for her to live permanently (for the year). Finding the right place in Delhi in the best location for the best price is not a simple task. Luckily Tapesh knows the areas and all of the local customs. We did not find the right place yet, especially since the Buddhist Centre is so calm and accommodating. Her big task for the week will be to register at the Foreign Service Office, apparently a bureacratic challenge. My big task is to find my way a bit more around Delhi. So far, I have had no problems with the food or water or anything else, except for some weird sleeping patterns. The air is somewhat polluted--and Delhi is a noisy place, full of life and spectacles of every variety. We plan to see a few historical sites as well as meet up with some American friends of friends. Later today, I hope, I'll be able to post some pictures that will give a little more perspective on our life and wanderings.
