The trip is over and we are home. And right now I want to go right back to Bombay! I miss everything about it. Let’s face it, I’m going to miss blogging too. Everything about this trip may not have been perfect but it was still amazing. I learnt so much about myself over the [...]

It feels a little weird writing a farewell post…as I am currently laying in my bed in Mumbai. The boys have just left for the airport….I am the last SU student left in India. Although I am still here and still “experiencing” India, I am ready to reflect a bit on everything I have experienced [...]

The rain, the heat, the bugs, and the unpredictability of the country are what I will miss about India. What I will miss most are the people; the women in saris I call “Auntie” and men that I called “uncle.” It’s been an amazing ride here and I plan on returning in the future. The [...]

I landed at JFK and left saying bye to the others who had flown back with me. I got a taxi outside and was relived to have enough head room inside and that there were doors. I was going back to my sister’s place in Queens to spend the rest of the summer in NYC. [...]

Six out of the eleven students just left. Two more leave tonight and tomorrow. I am so sad! Never in a million years did I expect to love these people so much. I got on a plane a month ago with ten strangers…and now I have ten best pals that I absolutely adore in every [...]

In the final days on my trip to Mumbai, I’m feeling like I’ve just begun to scratch the surface of life in this city and this industry. There are so many layers to life in the city, but alas, the United States are calling my name once again. I feel very fortunate to have had [...]
Our “S” Baseball Caps

I brought 44 Syracuse University baseball caps with me to give as gifts to people we met, WWI faculty members, and/or site supervisors of internships, etc. (FYI, 44 is a very meaningful number for Syracuse and several of its football legends have worn the 44 jersey. Our zip code ends in 44 and all our [...]

So since I’ve been in India a lot of this have been changing back home. I missed a lot of my friends graduating from college. I missed seeing three of my friends graduate from high school. My sister’s boyfriend sister just got engaged. My friends are getting jobs or leaving their hometown. People are having [...]
