riding in rickshaws: On the Road: Agra
http://indiastudiesprogram.blogspot.com/2014/04/on-road-agra.html
Saturday, April 26, 2014. On the Road: Agra. Today was Taj Mahal day! We arrived early in Agra and so went straight from the train station to tour Agra Fort before it got too hot. It was interesting to hear the story of Shah Jahan’s imprisonment in the fort and how he lived out the last of his days seeing the Taj Mahal through his bedroom window, but never actually got to visit it! After a time to rest, go shopping and get some lunch (buffalo biriyani) we set out to see the Taj Mahal! On the Road: Agra.

Tuesday, April 15, 2014. On the Road: BIRDS. On Sunday evening, we boarded the train to start our 18 days of travel across north India! First stop: the small rural village of Cuddapah in the middle of Andhra Pradesh. We were able to visit a local village where the farmers are implementing their new knowledge and had a chance to ask them questions about their experience. Visiting a local village. We also went for a hike through the forest-stopping to see many Hindu temples and shrines along the way. Found...

riding in rickshaws: December 2013
http://indiastudiesprogram.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 9, 2013. On the Road: Agra, Delhi, and Dehradun. Sorry for the long delay! We have been travelling pretty hardcore these last few days but are happy to now be settled for a couple days in Rajpur in the foothills of the Himalyas. From Varanasi we went onto Agra to see Agra Fort and of course the Taj Mahal! What an unreal experience! We all had a wonderful time taking pictures. Batch 5 at the Taj Mahal! These hills are stunning and it is wonderful to be in the peace and quiet after the bus...

riding in rickshaws: On the Road: Varanasi
http://indiastudiesprogram.blogspot.com/2014/04/on-road-varanasi.html
Saturday, April 26, 2014. On the Road: Varanasi. Welcome to the holy city of Varanasi on the bank of the Ganges River! We wound our way through the narrow alleys- ducking by cows, avoiding cow patties, past rickshaws, and through crowds to get to our hotel overlooking the Ganga! Is a worship ritual to Mother Ganga involving fire and incense and the ringing of bells. Finally we ended our day with a superb dinner of authentic Italian pizza and amazing apple pie (an ISP tradition)! Sunrise over the Ganges.

Friday, May 2, 2014. On the Road: Dehradun. Well the trip is over, but I wanted to let you know what we did in Dehradun:. After the crowds and heat of the big cities, it was so refreshing to go up to the foothills of the Himalayas and rest. We spent a day debriefing the past semester and discussing what we learned and how we can take these things back home with us. Playing volleyball with the Tibetan guys. Needless to say, it is very beautiful and a very unique experience, as well as tons of fun! Another...

Wednesday, September 25, 2013. A Birthday, A Feast, and A Visit from the king. This weekend several of our students were off on another home stay. The rest still had a fun full weekend in Coimbatore with a big Onam celebration at our apartment complex. Yes, you may have already read our blog about Onam- but it is a 10 day festival and our Malayalee neighbors wanted to be home in Kerala for the actual holiday and then celebrate back in Tamil Nadu afterward. There were several traditional dances performed ...
