Resurfaced

Deep exhale. After a month and a half, which felt like a year in itself, I closed-out my fellowship with Indicorps. It was a hard decision to make, but I eventually realized my goals were not aligned with those of the fellowship. Kind of crazy I’m now in India with no concrete plan but I’m excited to spend the next few days decompressing and thinking towards how I want to spend the remaining time here. Enthusiastic to actually learn culture and to connect with family- as well as travel! Feeling relieved and confident, finally starting to feel like myself again after a crazy fifty days.

Feel free to be in touch more now- I’ll be able to be more communicative and probably more blog-active.

  2. I posted a comment a week ago, but it looks like my last comment got eaten.

    Surprised! It will be interesting to hear the details. A week ago I had suggested that you either find another non-profit, and then spend some time backpacking while you're there. I have friends who spent a year learning yoga and traveling across India.

    Cool to see you found another non-profit already.
