dinner was great!

week:something

we've been hiking @ 5 hours a day
lots of exploring to be done

we went to some amazing caves with temples in them in a place called ellora
there were waterfalls, mountains, goats, and cows
(took a nap in a cave and woke up to people taking pictures of us)
also visited an amazing fort up in a mountain called daulatabad
(supercool)

we keep meeting amazing people that take us in to their homes
we spent the night in a treehouse next to a cob house and now we're in faculty housing at a university in ahmadabad (i helped some students break into a music room on campus and we jammed out last night)

we've visited some really cool eco friendly factories that are trying to make a difference
(carrying some samples around)

things are getting dry here and i don't mean the monsoon

late

If D. Garrison looked more Australian than German, he could be our main character.

Miguel in India


well we made it, so far so fun

(i wish i hadn't gotten hurt right before coming here)

but i wouldn't be able to skate anyways

i guess monsoon means "shit-ton of rain"


we got to cristen's friend's house @ 6am here after the 20hr flight endeavour

slept for a bit then off to teach a class

we thought it'd be a few kids but it was 70 something and some teachers at the school too

it was crazy and fun
ps the food"s great
