Anegundi Tales

A lot of things to say about this little village - across the river Tungabhadra - a village called anegundi - older than hampi - about 600 years old - small houses - granite construction - timber posts - brick superstructure - lime plasters - rough slabs - smooth dung finishes - colourful flowers against plain white walls - banana workshop - simple south indian food which students disliked - cluster houses - fast disappearing - modernity enters social structure - tapan concerned - mapping mapping - students draw sections through the village - first day of hammering - next day improvement - had a small bonfire - karan's birthday where students ruined the silence of place by silly loud music - and just such typical stuff.

but there shall be another post with detailed observations of what i saw through the NEW eyes.

and here is more of the feel:
