Having a Blast

Hello From India!!
Hello all you beautiful people! I am having a blast here in India! I have not been able to get to the internet very much, hence, the super long time between posting. I am not able to upload any pictures unfortunately, but I will be sure to do so once I get back home on March 26th. I have been spending my time with some fantastic new friends, in a tropical paradise! I've been doing tonnes of studying and lots and lots of yoga! This resort is full of coconut palm trees!! I have made some great friends here, especially my roomate Yvonne, she's great...when we have a gecko or a cockroach in the room she takes care of it! Which is good, because I am not about to escort a cockroach outside! Today we all had the day off so I just hung around the pool and did some studying. It's beautiful here, around 37 degrees, always sunny, and the people are really friendly. Some of the interestign things about this area: There are about a million and a half crows here...no kidding...crows!! They also play Indian music over some loud speakers 24/7, and one really sad thing is that there is no recycling here, so everything, garbage, recycling etc. gets burned every night. This means that all the laundry we have to wash and hang out to dry on the clothesline rope mom made me pack ( thanks mom!) smells like smoke every day. It's a beautiful country...but there is so much sadness and poverty here it breaks my heart.

I have to go now...internet time is up! But I will write again as soon as I am able!

Sending my love to Canada!!

Peace and Love ( from India)
Love,
Daphne
