Hyderabadi Home

outside Shilparamam, the arts and crafts village in Hyderabad

Sophie's birthday, mmm chocolate truffle cake after a delicious potluck dinner

a bunch of people were crammed into Musa's one room apartment.  For the few minutes when the trick candles were billowing smoke I thought we were gonna set the whole place on fire.  

move in day! the beautiful cloud formations viewed from our door

the other tenants came to join the fun

rajini's got some serious dance moves

The last night of the Ganesh festival!  One neighborhood over in Lingampally, a dance party in the streets with men in shirts stained with pink powder, 

crazy drums, someone playing a keyboard inside the truck hooked up to speakers,

a smaller ganesh statue on top of the truck... we had to leave because a fight broke out over our presence (a guy was trying to keep the other guys from getting too close to us when we were dancing)

sunset view

Sudharshan Nagar, our neighborhood
