Alive and well
I don't have too much time to write much of anything right now, but I thought I'd take a moment to say that I am safe, well, and experiencing culture shock! And I thought I'd be prepared for anything...ha! It took some time to get used to the time difference (+9.5), but now I can officially say that I am on schedule! People here go to bed and get up early; typically they are in bed by 10PM, and are up by 6AM. We will see how well I adjust to that cultural tendency. So far, I have seen quite a disparity in wealth, and I have barely touched the surface on this city, Bengaluru. I have pictures, but I am sitting in a coffee shop and unexpectedly found computers. Despite this being an IT hub, wireless service is extremely rare. Anyways, I will write more soon, but I must go, as my credit here is approaching empty. Much love to all!

Hey Lauren,
I was so fortunate to have been able to figure out the link thanks to Esther! Looking forward to reading many more blog entries and to learning what you are experiencing in that far away and mystical place.
Keep 'em coming!
Dear Lauren -
I was so glad to read your first blog and to see some of the pictures. India is a great adventure for you. So vividly different. Do you think there are opportunities to meet Bangaloreans?
