I came to India with six cameras packed into a tan leather bag custom-made for a Leica camera and gear. This was my most self-indulgent luggage and is proving to be totally redundant. Five of the cameras are analogue, including two medium-format relics and a Russian Horizon panoramic, and though I like my toys I get by just fine with a single digital camera that I take with me everywhere. <br><br>I came to India such equipment in order to capture what I imagined ...

... homes all the time....India is so big, yet so small at the same time!!!<br><br>*Cold: I got the cold just like all the other flat mates....Not too bad, just sore throat and then runny nose.....But I had some super hot (spicy and temperature) Sambar I cooked and it was great!!! I felt much better.....<br><br>*It was nice to just chill and not do much in Bangalore and I had great fun.....alright next dispatch will be from Rajasthan!!! Take care,<br><br>Sumeeth<br>

... far: one missionary couple from Indiana working at the seminary and two young ladies (Rebekah and Stephanie) who are both assuming a similar role as I am. English is widely spoken throughout India and is the main language on our campus, but often times the locals' accents (from one of at least four different dialects/languages also spoken here) make it hard for me to fully understand them, but I'm getting better about hearing through the accents. I'm still horrible about ...

... permanent result of which are marble-sized calluses on the balls of his feet. Those years of dedication had failed to bring Rajesh to his hallowed state of &#8216;I&#8217;lessness. <br><br>Until he encountered his first guru, the fakir, by chance after more than a decade. &#8220;He was very disappointed by my progress and accused me of wanting to be a spiritual guru,&#8221; he smirks at the memory. &#8220;He was an educated man, and much younger then I remembered him. I asked him ...

... petrol (Rs.500/-) and reached NAL Quarters on Jeevan Bheema Nagar Road.<br><br>Siva and his friend Ravindran&#8217;s family were loading their luggage in Maruti Swift Desize. After finalizing the places in the two cars we started at 8:00 am and reached Hotel Sukh Sagar in Koramangala at 8:15 am. Got the breakfast packed and resumed our journey at 8:45 am. The road after Silk Board was ok but with lot of diversions and bad to worse stretches in between. We crossed ...

... almost 2 hours, we decided we didnt agree with ESG's position completly. So during our presentation of our case study to our class we presented both sides of the issue. Leo, the head of esg and one of our Indian professors, got very mad and started essentially verbally attacking our presentation. He was upset that we didnt agree with him. I was sad that he couldnt see through our position on the subject to see how much work ...

Ahh, Bangalore (currently renamed to Bangaluru). India's high-tech and outsourcing masterpiece and hub. I have been to Bangalore once before, but only for a day trip to inspect the possibility of doing business with one of India's biggest and most prestigious IT/outsourcing companies, Infosys. That was only a day trip, flying in and out the same day, seeing nothing but the amazing Infosys campus and the madness on the streets. I might hardly claim ...

... precious resources. Bucket baths are when you fill half a bucket with warm water and with a smaller bucket rinse yourself an hair off. Doing this has made me realize how much water I actually need to get a sufficient and relaxing bathe. It is a refreshing experience. I will not be explaining the squat pot, there is a lot to it, but basically you need strong legs. c. I will not be looking at my surrounding as surreal and the people who are me as almost ...

... possibly checking to see if I had changed my mind. I had. I decided that even if I was rewarding some sort of underhanded behavior, I didn't care. If one person can't help everyone, then one person can do that much damage either. She had melted my heart. Renewed my spirit. I knew that behind the touts, the sleaze, the corruption, that India had a heart. I spent the rest of the night searching the crowd for her. Without warning the palace lit up and the crowd ahhh'd ...
