Breathe Love Yoga

This summer, I was fortunate to receive a Fulbright-Hays Seminars Abroad grant to travel and study in India. The purpose of Fulbright grants is for U.S. educators to increase their understanding and knowledge of people and cultures throughout the world. As an ESL teacher in Queens, NY, I am looking forward to learning more about the Indian culture, as well as breathing the air, loving the food, and practicing yoga. Follow my journey throughout India and feel free to post comments. Namaste!

Shimla - Harry Potter-esque features

During our time in Shimla, we have seen a very different India. In the north, the geography is filled with mountains, and architecture ranges from Gothic, Viktorian, Swiss Bavarian, Tudor, and Scottish. We visited the Indian Institute of Advanced Study and the Bishop Cotton Boarding School for boys (a very elite school grades 3-12, but only costs $5,000 per year.) Both have elements that remind me of Hogwarts, Harry Potter's school. Enjoy the photos.
