After an incredible 28 day journey around India and Nepal we are back safe in our apartment at the school in good old Andhra Pradesh. We visited 9 major areas including Goa, Mumbai, Jaipur, Agra, and Dehli, Darjeeling, and Kolkata in India and Pokhara and Kathmandu in Nepal. Transportation included trains, buses, mopeds, taxis, auto-rickshaws, bicycle-rickshaws, and subways. Compared to the polluted dirty cities like Dehli and Kathmandu the slow farmlands where we live never seemed so inviting. It is amazing to see the familiar faces at the school and to be back with our neighbors Ramana and Chandu. We're still tackling each of our piles of laundry, I've never missed a washing machine so much and you don't want to know what the water looks like in the buckets when we are done, and also enjoying the joys of being able to cook for ourselves and feel clean. It's daunting thinking about telling you guys all about our trip but in the next few days we'll try to post at least some of the crazy highlights. I hope you all had had an amazing holiday season and that the start of 2012 has already been a blessed one.
