One Month.

Today marks the one month point of my journey here in south Asia. I could probably write novels of all of the things that I have learned and experienced thus far. I feel so incredibly blessed to be able to be a part of the work going on here. I’m stoked that I still have five more months of this!

Here are a few of the highlights from the first month:

Marching bands in the middle of the night

D- Belly

Eating with my hands (Right not left)

The ever exciting quest in an Auto Rickshaw

Arriving in my city to find a new friend and a Tata but no driver

Riding public transport

Throwing (el)bows on said transport

Fresh fruits & veggies

Elephants walking down the road

Monkey temples

THE Major and her army

Stopping traffic

“It is not possible”

Carb overloading

P90X/BL

Sikh-ing out beards

New awesome friendships

A successful attempt to return something

Mission to make the perfect cup of tea

Biscuit ban

Hitting my knees to the floor before my feet every morning

Midnight construction

Photo booth fun with scoot scoot and Mary

Hilarious moments of being the stupid Americans

Sharing truth via Mehendi

Stumbling my way through foreign conversations

Eyebrow threading (It is paining!)

Seeing bicycle/motorbike collisions

Living in a city for midgets and constantly hitting my head on something

Precious children in GB

Getting peed on by sleeping babies

And needless to say, I’m loving every moment of it.
