Khanna Household

The Khanna's sitting room
Sati (husband) and Reeti (wife) Khanna are hosting me at their house for the three months that I am here. They are an older couple whose children are grown with families of their own so they host exchange students through the Rotary Club.  Mr. Khanna is so friendly and talkative and has been very helpful.  He went to Harvard Business School about 40 years ago so he spent time in Boston and goes back occasionally to visit.  We spent a while talking about the work I'll be doing here and the places he's traveled to and the parts of India that he says I must see before I leave.  Mrs. Khanna is also very nice and I spent time talking with her about our families, she does not smile or talk as much as Mr. Khanna, but I've realized that this isn't because she's angry or upset, it is just how she is.

Outside patio




We had tea out here, there's a ceiling fan so it's very nice sitting out here and they have a wall that can come down to separate the patio from the lawn for when the rain is heavy
Yard - the statue is of Ganesh, it is currently the Festival of Ganesh
