Varanasi and Mussorie




After spending two nights in Varanasi and meeting our professors, we took a twenty-four hour train ride to Mussorie, a small town in the foothills of the Himalayas. The weather is cool and we are staying in a comfortable hotel with a beautiful view of the mountains. (Elin: this is the nicest hotel I have stayed in!!). We're taking Hindi classes for four hours a day with two different teachers, Virendra-ji and Vimal-ji (ji is a suffix indicating respect). Monkeys play outside our windows and jump from tree to tree.
