A local graveyard, full of the ghosts of British imperialism.
Jasvinder Singh, my go-to shopkeep.
After my classes I spend the afternoons with my neighbors. They are gravalis, tribal locals from Uttarakhand. They are wonderful neighbors, and bring me yummy ladhus.
A little neighbor that I've named "Swatantrata Senani" - Freedom Fighter. He likes to destroy half-finished chess games that I'm playing with my 15-year-old neighbor.
Uncha Vala comes to my apartment at 2pm and sleeps until 8pm when I kick him out.
