Wish I Was There



It being Monday and with this working on the project in South India, I really want to be on a bicycle riding down a dirt road through a grove of palm trees on my way to a cool mango lassi. Just saying, it sounds like a lovely way to spend an afternoon especially when it is unseasonably drizzly here in the Bay Area. It has been far too long since my passport has been stamped and I am definitely feeling the itch to travel.

So now I must reminisce to past trips and one in particular comes to mind. Right before my last semester of school we took a fieldtrip to India, tough life. Southern India, this is Tamil Nadu, has amazing food and atmosphere and culture and beaches and I could continue this list on and on. Our class had a great time despite some long bus rides and to be expected travel challenges. We started in Chennai and went down to Mamallapuram, Pondicherry and Auroville then West through Gingee Fort and Thiruvannamalai. Definitely a destination to put on your To Go List.
