When in Rome, do as the Romans do, right? Well I guess the same philosophy applies to India as well, at least for me. I know this might be hard to believe, but I woke up at 6am this morning (probably because I fell asleep at 9pm last night) and did rooftop yoga at our hotel at 730. It was amazing. I have never really done yoga before and I am incredibly inflexible, but it felt amazing to just be in the fresh air over the mountains taking everything in, including the actual practice of yoga. Our instructor is a pretty young man who has an incredibly deep, soothing voice, that made me relax almost instantly. The most amazing thing is that we only have to pay $2-$4 USD per class, say what?!? In the US it would cost $15-$20 USD for a yoga class and that is what we will pay for an entire week. I hope I stay with it and getting up at 7am does not become to big of a challenge for me.
As I have already told you, our hotel overlooks the Himalayas and it is so breathtaking. It is quite smoggy though, so taking pictures is a bit of a challenge.
I walk outside of my door at the hotel and this is what I see from all directions :)
If you know me, which you probably do if you are reading my blog, you will understand if I say that where I am right now reminds me a lot of the lair, which I mentioned in an earlier blog post about running outside. I am so excited to be spending the next three weeks here.

Hi Brianna,
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you and all your new experiences. You have a great way of describing new things and I'm excited to read what you write. I also have enough experience traveling and living in other countries to know what you mean about the different toilets (not to mention odd toilet paper or NO toilet paper) and the beggars and the heat. Keep writing, stay safe, learn lots!!
