Although I'm in India, I feel like I've been all around the world these last couple of weeks. For ex., I work with an Australian, sleep on the bunk under a lovely girl from Trinidad and hung out this weekend with some Iranians. Every culture has it's own mannerisms, customs, style. I'm learning so much.
I've been slacking with photography. I get shy about it, and it's hard to lug around a manual in this kind fo heat. Hopefully I will head to Varanasi this Friday, though, and get some great shots.
Today my students wished me a happy Eid! We got amazing cookies. Happy Rosh Hoshana!

I finally found your blog. I am so glad to hear you are getting used to the hussle and bussle of Delhi, and India. It sounds like you are making the most of the experience and it is so surreal to think that you have wanted to go there for so long and now you are there. Keep these blog posts coming, they are fantastic. Can't wait to see pictures of you and your life there. Stay safe, stay cool, and drink lots of good water!

ReplyDeleteIt's amazing to read you blogs. I hope you are learning so much. I've been thinking about you a lot, especially since in my world religions class we are learning about Hinduism! I cannot wait to hear more, keep on updating us!
ReplyDeleteThanks All!
ReplyDeleteSathya: I can't believe I am here either. You know I be drinking some purified water. Luckily we get it for free at home. No food probs yet! (Knock on wood)
Carlie: love you too! Thinking about what you'd do if you had internet as infrequently as I do..which is still better than I though..haha
Allyssa: thanks! how are your photo classes- did you have critiques yet, and did the big-ego-photo-heads live up to their reputations?
