Turns out, I got to stay in the SIP guest house with most of the other students in my group. I traded rooms with a girl who wanted to live in the women's dorm. I have a single, which is good, except it only has one window that is boarded up because there is an air conditioner in the window. So basically, I live in a hole. I'm going to see if I can change that by removing the board. But other than that, I like my room.

We went to Shilparamam today. It's a permanent craft village, where local artisans set up booths to sell their wares. It was one of the better shopping experiences I've had in India, if only because it wasn't crowded. I didn't buy anything, but it was fun.
