I arrived in New Delhi on Saturday night and am still in the process of settling in. The combination of jet lag and the adjustment to a normal work week (it's been awhile) will force me to keep this post short this evening.
The basics, upon which I will elaborate later:
* I am living in a double-room in the Hindustan Times company guest house, located in the Soami Nagar neighborhood of South Delhi.
* I will be reporting for Hindustan Times for at least the next three months and potentially for the next six (my employment visa expires at the end of November).
* I survived the first day of work today with my job fully intact, a particularly easy feat given that our itinerary mostly involved a detailed tour of all 17 floors of the HT building.
Here is a photo from the tour of me with the two other reporters from Columbia and my roommate, Harry, a rising senior at Brown who is interning on the business staff at Hindustan. The woman on my left is a part-time student at Columbia J-School named Karyn, and to my right is Michelle, also a part-timer.
I will soon post a much more in-depth review of the past few days, including a description of my living situation and job duties. But, for now, bed.
Cheers.
