We have started our tour of North India.

I am in Hyderabad right now.

We have just started the third course of the semester on religon. Besides being known for pearls, Hyderabad has a high concentration of Muslims, 80%. After our study of Islam we will fly to for a touristy time visiting the Taj Majal and such. Then we head to Varinassi to study Hinduism in depth. We will be visiting Mumbai and some other cities as well as we will be finishing the last two courses on this trip, living out of our suitcases bouncing from hostel to hostel.

The majority of native Indians have not visited as many locations in India that we will have by the time the semester is done.
For that I feel SO fortunate and blessed. I can barely believe that we are over half way done with our semester.

Due to us being on the road for the next month, blogs will be updated with less frequency and more concisly, but I will try my best.

Happy Vetrans Day! (and I would like to take this time to make a very special shout out to my Mother...)









HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!



Love, Lydia
