The Beginning

I have recently found out that I will leave on August 15th for India! As I'm sure many of you know I will be calling Coimbatore "home" for 10 months. It is the second largest city in the state Tamil Nadu and has a population of about a million people. I have had contact with my first host family, and they sound like wonderful people! I will be attending the local Indian school there and hopefully will be able to participate in some activities. The two things I really have my heart set on about this trip are a) the month and a half long Northern India tour and b) administering Polio vaccinations. Looking forward to learning about such a unique and exciting culture!
