I would encourage you all, if you haven't already, to read up on the situation in Tibet right now, because it is increasingly pertinent to the area I will be visiting!

open your mind
I can't believe I've gone a whole month without posting on the good ol' blog...Things have just been crazy as always. I've started doing some reading, along with brushing up on my Hindi:
"India- monsoon and marigold, dung and dust, colors and corpses, smoke and ash, snow and sand- is a cruel, unrelenting place of ineffable sweetness. Much like life itself. And, like life itself (if reincarnation be true) worth visiting repeatedly, in this turn of the wheel and the next."
- Travelers Tales: India
Also thank you so much to everyone who came to the fundraising dinner! The food was delicious, the conversation enriching, and I am looking forward to sharing more with you all when I come back. Namaste,
Emily
