It is amazing how much information there has been to take in over the past 4 weeks! We have learned about project management and design thinking, Indian politics and the Indian macroeconomy, and Hinduism and microfinance in our last three class sessions. On top of that we are taking Hindi lessons once a week to enable us to speak basic phrases once we are on the ground at CORD. It has not been all work however. We did take some time to have a party at Jim's house a few weeks back. As you can see, it was great getting to know each other more and the food wasn't so bad either!
All in all, it has been an incredible experience thus far and I can't wait to experience the remaining weeks until we leave for India. There are some great things coming... Learning more about the culture, hearing from a photojournalist from National Geographic that has spent a lot of time photographing India, practice project presentations... It's a whirlwind for sure, but one I am very glad to be in!
