This is me in Pondicherry on vacation earlier this year. The Picture was taken at Aurodan Art Gallery there.

The property was recommended by Alaphia Zoyab, a former collegaue at NDTV.

It is owned and managed by the very warm and charming Lalit Verma.

A giant who roams the streets of Pondicherry in his shorts on a Kinetc Honda.

The room where i stayed was part of the art gallery and surrounded by priceless pieces of art. The whole gallery and living area has been tastefully done up.

The service is excellent and the location just right. I would recommend it to any one visiting Pondicherry. But not everyone gets to stay there...Lalit is very particular about who he lets in.
