Recordist's notes

Usually a crossroad from the university campus to the City centre, yet very few people walking about, going to local markets for their essentials. This recording also reflects the lonesomeness in the city, the lady with the luggage, either travelling with her recently purchased items or heading to the bus centre to leave the city.
