Out and About: December 2009

Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. -Henry Mancini. Saturday, December 12, 2009. Writing Puzzles and Water Quality. Either way I really appreciated the chance to craft a paper like that, learn so much about water and sanitation, and most of all to learn how the business world works in India. I think any ride at an amusement park will forever be dull after bus rides here in India! The teacher came up to me and tried to tell me something in Oriya but I couldn't really und...

Out and About: Snackathon Saturday
http://easknight.blogspot.com/2009/12/snackathon-saturday.html
Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. -Henry Mancini. Friday, December 11, 2009. We had errands to run in town - buying a few groceries like soap and fruit and things for our rooms, but our main goal on Saturday was to eat! It was a great success since we didn't get sick at all! We sampled some fresh juices first and fresh juice here in India is so different from the juices I have had in America. Fresh apple juice in Manali was so fresh it had apple pulp in it! The sauce ...

Out and About: Business as Usual
http://easknight.blogspot.com/2009/12/business-as-usual.html
Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. -Henry Mancini. Thursday, December 3, 2009. I've been working in the office for about a week now and it has been more of a fun and wild learning experience than I would have ever imagined! Aside from Joyo bringing me and the other two Canadian girls in my office chai two times a day, there are also some other very Indian - and very interesting - things happening throughout the day. We start the day at about nine after having breakfast...

Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. -Henry Mancini. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. A Little of the Life in the Hills. After the crazy bus ride things have been much quieter up here in the Himalayas! It isn't snowing here yet but it is certainly fall and BEAUTIFUL! We are staying in this great little hostel away from town about a half mile sitting above a glacial river! I'm really frustrated by all of the languages here! It's quite frustrating to only use English because t...

Out and About: Tales of Train Travel
http://easknight.blogspot.com/2009/11/tales-of-train-travel.html
Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. -Henry Mancini. Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Tales of Train Travel. After a 24-hour long train ride from Varanasi to Bhubaneswar, I feel inclined to write about a few of the hilarities and bizarre occurrences of the trains and train stations here in India! For some reason the rides to and from the train station are the most wild and seemingly near death experiences, like the recent ride I had in Varanasi! Seriously, every time I̵...

Out and About: Living the Life!
http://easknight.blogspot.com/2009/11/living-life.html
Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. -Henry Mancini. Wednesday, November 25, 2009. I have had these moments over and over for the past day where I ask myself, “Is this really my life! 8221; Orissa is pretty much my paradise so far and I’m so happy to be here! It’s a beautiful spot with clear blue skies, peaceful, quiet walkways, and butterflies floating all through the grass…and the occasional scorpion! The head of Peer Water Exchange is one of the most inspirational and...

Two drifters off to see the world. There's such a lot of world to see. -Henry Mancini. Saturday, September 12, 2009. Summer in the South. Only one month until we leave for our big trip! And only a few days left in North Carolina! In light of the upcoming departure, I just thought I'd give an update on what we've been up to here in Corolla, NC all summer! The easiest and most common way to help is to advise the drivers to take air out of their tires. It takes a few minutes, but running any vehicle on ...
