Welcome to the new travel blog! As I've promised many of you, I'll be trying to send back at least weekly reports of my travels in India and the work I'm doing there, hopefully with many photos.
For background, I'll be working under the combined auspices of SHARE India, based in Hyderabad, and the Bhoruka Charitable Trust, based out of Jaipur (a major city) and Bhorugram (a very rural town) in the state of Rajasthan. Most of my time will be spent in the latter, helping to replicate a version of SHARE's REACH program in the villages where BCT delivers services. The whole thing has been arranged through the graces of PS Reddy, a Pittsburgh cardiologist who founded SHARE and keeps the whole thing going through serious leadership skills and tremendous personal energy.
On Tuesday the 26th, I head out for a week or so of training in Hyderabad before making my way to Jaipur. Until then, it's hanging out at my parents' kitchen table in eastern PA and "helping" my dad reduce the volume of his liquor cabinet. It's going to be a very unusual adventure, one different from anything I've done so far, but I'm excited!
