Jen does Delhi with VSO: November 2010
http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. Saturday, 20 November 2010. There are, generally, two tourist India’s. The five star luxury where you don’t see much of the real India at all. You pay through the nose for this and if you ventured into your hotel’s kitchen you might get the idea you weren’t in a decent hotel at all. Friday, 12 November 2010. Recently I went on a Vipassana. We both agreed I was a bit unlucky though in the end the result was pretty much the same. And hung out learning all about yoga and other spiri...

Jen does Delhi with VSO: Lost Weekend: Finishing up in Delhi
http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/2010/12/lost-weekend-finishing-up-in-delhi.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. Saturday, 4 December 2010. Lost Weekend: Finishing up in Delhi. Ok so it wasn't a lost weekend but where did it go? In fact the last 4 weeks just went. In training they tell you the last month of a VSO placement will be gentle. Tidying up loose ends, saying goodbye, eating cake. That sort of thing. Not here. Will you be back?

Jen does Delhi with VSO: January 2011
http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. Thursday, 6 January 2011. The End of an Era.Adieu! But the first few days were odd. I had to eat about four bacon sandwiches over the first few days in order to satiate my cravings. I had to remember to put toilet paper into the loo and not in the nearest available wastepaper basket. I spent a lot of time emailing, calling friends and visiting. To complete these musings, here are the things I wished I'd written about and didn't have time:. Climate change in India. Why people get ...

Jen does Delhi with VSO: Let the Games commence…
http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/2010/10/let-games-commence.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. Sunday, 17 October 2010. Let the Games commence…. I missed out on my swimming ticket due to a rescheduling of the Coimbatore interpreter training. I’d had a few emails whilst I was away asking if the atmosphere in Delhi had changed due to the Commonwealth Games. I was lucky enough to return by plane rather than endure another 42 hour train journey. A few days later and it was time for some badders. With every match featuring either England or India it was going to be a good d...

http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/2010/11/fever-in-morning-fever-all-through.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. Monday, 8 November 2010. Fever In the morning, fever all through the night…. Out of 15 volunteers currently in Delhi, 7 have been struck down with mysterious fevers and illnesses. That’s nearly a whopping 50%. Of the 7 that have been struck down, we’ve had cases of Dengue. 1), unidentified fevers (3), a strange rash and unknown vomiting (2). No Malaria. Yet but it could just be a matter of time.

Indian Bells: April 2010
http://indianbells.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
A Royal Rajasthani Reawakening. Monday, 26 April 2010. Adapting to the heat. My new family say they are surprised how well I'm adapting to the new climate, the heat and a new environment. So how do I survive the heat? Monday, 19 April 2010. Party wear, dress shopping and child marriage. Wednesday, 14 April 2010. How to make Mama's chai. Chai is integral to Indian life, especially here in Laporiya, and from what I can work out, every cook has her (round here at least, it's usually a woman) own signature s...

Jen does Delhi with VSO: Coimbatore - Interpreter Training Course Number 3
http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/2010/10/coimbatore-interpreter-training-course.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. Wednesday, 13 October 2010. Coimbatore - Interpreter Training Course Number 3. There are always some ups and downs in the first few days of the interpreter training. You rock up in a strange new town, unpack and prepare yourself and the trainers for what is to come. You take a long look at the list of names, their backgrounds and talk about their potential.

http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/2010/10/all-aboard.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. Monday, 4 October 2010. I was 5 hours into a train journey last week when I managed to get my battery starved laptop on, cranked up the internet and tweeted. Another 37 hours to go. 42 scheduled hours from Delhi to Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu. A cool 2611 km away. That’s nearly two and half times the entire length of my home country, Great Britain. I was lucky though. I left on the morning of the 28 th. That journey was a monster 34 hours so nothing really. 29 October 2010 at 14:34.

Jen does Delhi with VSO: My Work
http://jendoesdelhi.blogspot.com/p/my-work.html
Jen does Delhi with VSO. It's been interesting so far and quite busy. We held the Indian ASLI 2nd National Conference. After that, we wrote a few government proposals, rather successfully if I do say so myself. There will be more to come on this later. We travelled to some Deaf events to publicise ASLI. And to encourage more interpreters to join as members. The website has been developed and we have set up a Facebook Page. And a Facebook Group. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). For more regular updates.
