Lunch with a dear friend

I was invited to a delicious lunch at a coworker (and friend's) home this weekend. Indian hospitality can't be beat! Even though she lives in a slum, it is one of the nicer ones and her home (a 2 bedroom with 3 families) is quite comfortable. The food was delicious and her family was extremely welcoming. I had a very nice time and was so grateful that they invited me over! I think I could actually live in some of the nicer slums here and be just fine - although I'd be even better if they had running water and it was just one person per twin bed. After awhile, you realize all of the things you don't really need and how loving family and friends can make up the difference.
