Hey all,
So this is my first post - exciting! I am checking out this blog situation to make sure it is going to work when I'm in India! So I leave this Friday the 9th! Ah. I still am not sure if i will have a computer in India, i may only rely on internet cafes.
So here is a tentative itinerary of my trip:
Fly into Mumbai/Bombay for two days.
Travel to Hubli our main location in the state of Karnataka in the South about 5 hrs from the western ocean. Here we will be doing service learning (community service) and project development where we have 1,500 dollars - donated from NEU to give grants to already existing institutions in India.
We take a week off after we get there and go to New Delhi for DIWALI! A fantastic festival of lights - pretty much the fourth of July but lasting for over a week. The entire country shuts down for this. We will also visit agra, where the taj mahal is.
We will go back to hubli for a few weeks then off to Goa - party city, hippy hang out, vegas of India.
Then back to Hubli for a training in grassroots organizing with Indian students in a local engineering college.
Then we end in Bangalore, in the South!
Whew that was a long first post,
Well next time I write I will be in INDIA! AHHAHAHAH

Adios muchachos,
Muchos besos y abesos,
Sarah

Hey Cuz!
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic trip! Can't wait to read your updates.
Love,

We miss you and are glad you have this blog. Roger, Eveline, and Joanne enjoyed your Skype visit. We have made our land trip arrangements for Nov 24-Dec 7 already. I am glad that you will have seen New Dehli and Agra - Taj Mahal and Red Fort. Then we don't have to plan on taking you there in December.
ReplyDeleteWe had a great visit with Roger and Eveline in Delaware and visiting Bubbie.
