Finally made it back to the internet! I may just kick my internet addiction here in India. We are a five minute walk from this internet cafe, but it takes us days to get here. =p We've mostly been observing stuff at CFI throughout the week and figuring out how things work, but today we were able to talk with, Aparna, our contact at the India Study Abroad Center and discuss some ideas about projects for us to help out with. It will be nice to be useful. *(ignore all my typos..my spacebar isn'tworking well and it's making the rest of my fingers angry) I think we will be able to conduct general health check-ups/surveys for the children in some of the villages and refer cases to the physician operating the mobile health van. I'm very excited about doing that! We are also hoping to gather information on health issues that need more attention in the villages and maybe create information posters that can be translated into the local language, Marathi, for villagers to learn from. Also, we might be able to teach a little English to some of the other employees at CFI. We are able to communicate with them pretty well, Aparna suggested that it might be helpful for them to be able to practice their conversational English for more proficiency for themselves as well as to benefit future interns. Our other big score for the day was talking with Aparna about traveling we might be able to do. With all of the festivals in India, we might be able to take advantage of playing hooky from work for a week in November. Though there are many things to see nearby, we are hoping to take that span of time so see something farther away...Taj Mahal? Elephants? ..Something exciting anyway! I am trying to load more pictures, but I'm not sure if it's working. Thank you for all the notes! I feel better about being on the other side of the world, when I can hear from people back home. Hope you all are doing well - feel free to update me on you as well! =]
