    ¡Hola Masala! ❤️ One month after the earthquake, we wanted to share an update on our house, the reconstruction, and how we're actually doing. The third floor (2nd in India) is still under plastic sheets. We haven't been able to start the reconstruction because the government still hasn't given us permission.

Right now, the roof is just plastic sheets, holding on until we can rebuild.
