Hi everyone
It's Saahil and Nisha here from AWAG. It has really struck us as to how different Bangalore and Ahmedabad are! Bangalore being cosmopolitan, clean, cool and easier to navigate around. AWAG is located within a slum area where the beneficiaries of the charity live. Our first day was quite intensive. On the one hand it was harrowing to hear the stories of these women but, on the other hand it was quite uplifting to hear of the changes that had been implemented thus far.
Yesterday was our first evening out in Ahmedabad. Satelite Road seems to be one big never ending highway where many shops and malls are situated. The shops in the mall were very modern, western and posh. A complete contrast to the slum areas located just a short walk away.
On a more practical note we have yet to find a CCD and an adequate map of the city for Priya!! Missing all of you guys and Bangalore and CCD and MG road and ISI!
Look forward to hearing all of your stories.
Nisha and Saahil xxxxxx
