"Ganga ki awaaz"...

...Or, "The sound of the Ganga" (Ganges River) is what we hear all day every day. The Himalaya Hindi House is situated right on the banks of the Ganga. We arrived here one week ago. Since then our days have been spent studying Hindi, drinking tea, and eating the best food. We study in a bamboo hut. We study on the banks of the Ganga. We fold our hands and say "Namaste" to the elderly Nepali gardener. We communicate with a young deaf and dumb boy in sign language. We do Yoga in the morning. We will go trekking in the Himalayas with Anil, one of our tutors.

*Internet/phone access is only available 15 miles away in nearest town, thus posts to blog/emails will be infrequent until mid july when we are finished our studies at the HHH.
