ISP prep-time

SO... I've been back in Kathmandu for a little over a week now and it has been busy! Back to the rigors of language class - but only two hours everyday. The first week back was spent deciding whether or not I wanted to go to Dharamsala or Ladakh - but the decision has been made and to Ladakh I will go!!!! My plan is to go there and research the recent disastrous flood  that happened in August. Beyond that I'm not exactly sure where the project will take me - but I know it will be a great adventure. The only other people who are going are Erik and Jon but they plan on traveling around the region a lot so I will be pretty much on my own. But other than that not much is new here - just trying to get everything together. I head out on Saturday - we'll fly through Delhi and then up to Ladakh (with a nice fourteen hour layover in Delhi - but at least they just redid the airport so its actually not so bad). Hopefully, I'll be giving another update from Ladakh with how the research is going!!! Love you all!
