well, right now I have been in Jaipur for about two weeks. I have been teaching in a school every weekday morning and visiting houses in the afternoons. I am having an amazing time with my group, and we are all growing and learning a lot. we have been connecting with some of the local people while we are here, through the house visits and meeting new friends at the mall. through this we have been able to share a little about our lives and why we are in India. they have also told us about themselves and the city itself.
we have learning all about the culture and religions of this area, and have been told that you can't have one without the other. most of the people that we have met have been very open and willing to talk.
i need to run, but i hope you are all safe and well! i'll try to post more later!
(oh, and Jaipur is named after one of their old kings, Jai. pur means city.)
