Well, after nearly 24 hours of travel, 2 flights, 4 in-flight meals, seeing the sunrise over Paris and enjoying a tour of the Swiss Alps from the sky, we arrived in the 2nd most populated city in the world, Mumbai late Friday night. From there we drove 3 hours to Pune where we finally reunited with Annie and stayed the weekend exploring the city with our couch-surfer hosts, Aniket and Chaitanya, and their friends.
Overall, this weekend was the perfect start to our time in India, where the seeds of the Look Out Loud project were unknowingly planted. When we arrived in Jamkhed on Sunday evening, we almost felt as if we had come full circle, to the place where this project all really began over 9 months ago. It's great to be back- surreal, but great -as Annie, Maggie, and I are back together at the CRHP campus and ready to start the first round of Look Out Loud. We are meeting with Ravi, the Director of Operations at CRHP, tonight to discuss Photovoice logistics, and we’ll keep you posted with developments!
