Half-Way Day!

Here in Kolkatta the Shiva crew is celebrating both Halloween and the half-way day of our semester.  It is hard to believe that we are half-way through – I am so proud of what our crew has accomplished as a group already, and looking forward to seeing even more self-growth, adventures, and hilarity in the remaining half!  I wanted to give a shout-out to all of the family and friends back home who are following the group on the blog and sending your love and support; it makes a world of difference for us here in India.  We also appreciate your patience as we battle the sometimes-painfully slow internet cafes, but keep an eye out for more photos! In the meantime, here is a scattered collection of a few from the last few weeks.

Happy Halloween from Kolkatta!
