Everyone has moved from the TCOVillage to Shanyrak Village, so I get to stay in the newer accomodations. One of the benefits - each room has its own bathroom. No more sharing!
Actually flew over the SV - you can see the common area, where they have the canteen, and all of the living quarters radiating out from them. Although you had a room with a bathroom, the beds are still terrible.
The offices are still in TCOV so that means a bus ride to work, or about a 10 minute walk. Not too bad in the morning, but the afternoon heat makes it interesting.
Also took a couple of photos looking down to the plant.
