The Original Adventures In Service
India: Food and Lodging
What type of lodging is provided?
You will stay at the Global Volunteers House, a comfortable, air-conditioned guest house in Porur featuring family-style accomodations. The house has double occupancy rooms and a kitchen, dining room, sitting room, two showers, and two bathrooms.

What are the laundry arrangements?
A washing machine and clothes lines to hang-dry your clothes are available. Alternatively, there is a very inexpensive laundry service in the community.

What is the electrical power?
Electricity in India is 230-240 volts. Plugs are usually three round-pins, similar but not identical to the European plugs. Bring a power converter and a set of universal adapters. Expect power outages from time to time.

What is the local cuisine?
Traditional Indian meals are prepared by a local cook employed by Global Volunteers. In addition, some evening meals are eaten at local area restaurants. Typical Indian foods include curry dishes, rice, vegetables, limited amounts of fruit, tandoori (herbed and baked chicken, meat and fish) and flat breads. Breakfast includes eggs, hot cereal, biscuits, fried vegetables and coffee or tea.

Can special diets be accommodated?
Vegetarians can easily avoid meat, but those with very restrictive diets should bring special foods to supplement their meals.

Will potable drinking water be provided?
We will supply bottled water for drinking and teeth brushing. Water can also be boiled.
