You don't need a drip machine; it is possible to brew a decent cup on a stove-top.<BR/><BR/>Alternatively, have someone ship you a French press and some beans instead of those bags.<BR/><BR/>Also, unless you have a region-free DVD player handy, I wouldn't worry about bringing any movies over.Nathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04737952788723847550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8559110753602072603.post-4821511205812791612007-08-22T02:41:00.000-04:002007-08-22T02:41:00.000-04:00Thanks, all.

I'm size 40 in India (8 in US) and they seem to have very few shoes in that size... so they keep trying to shove my feet into a 37, and I keep patiently explaining "size 40 only..."Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13875686468126571113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8559110753602072603.post-28326273948691970472007-08-21T18:09:00.000-04:002007-08-21T18:09:00.000-04:00Email me with your address!

You definitely need one pair for your room, and then another if you are using any sort of shared shower area. What BL said about the availability of these items.

You can buy "rubber slippers" or "hawaii slippers" as they're commonly called on the street for about Rs 30. (bargain) or for Rs.150 in the Bata store. As for yoga mats - AFAIK, sticky mats are fairly unknown - but you can buy a cotton rug (a dhurrie) pretty cheaply. Or ask your hosts if you can borrow a dhurrie to exercise on.<BR/><BR/>BitterlemonsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8559110753602072603.post-85132221872967729192007-08-20T16:21:00.000-04:002007-08-20T16:21:00.000-04:00Your comments and appraisal of Hyderabad makes int...Your comments and appraisal of Hyderabad makes interesting reading as always. Btw, did catch your audio log (is that what it is called?!!) a while back and you sound like a India born who has spent a good chunk in the US. Never mind if that is indeed the truth. Univ of Hyd is a pretty neck of the woods as you have realized, hope you have a swell time! :)AvinashBlithehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01651460565358782552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8559110753602072603.post-16150079407787172962007-08-20T10:43:00.000-04:002007-08-20T10:43:00.000-04:00Do you want me to send you anything or not?
