Squading in India: Hank Thompson

Squading in India

 

Well, it’s for sure going. Yesterday was Thanksgiving and let me tell you, I’m thankful for a lot of things to say the least.

Things are still going well. I’ve gotten into a good routine and I’m feeling adjusted to most of the big changes. Today at school was good too. The kids are super cute but freaking insane during the lessons. Despite that, they are the sweetest and give really good hugs. It’s really cool to be so loved and appreciated by kids that I’ve known for five days. I love those kids.

 

The YMAD girls are just as great. One today made me pinky promise to ride a horse with her in Khajjiar on Sunday.

Tomorrow is the cultural exchange. I’m pretty excited. Our songs sound really good and the dances are fun. It’s a little scary knowing how many people will be watching it.

I’m excited to get some down time and catch up on some much-needed relaxation.

We only have two more days in the schools. It’ll be hard to say goodbye to the kids.

Once again, it’s going well and I’m having fun. I’m trying to live it up as much as I can now that we are on the countdown.

  1. Hi Hank!
    It’s so fun to catch glimpses of you on the blog and get an idea of what you’re doing each day.
    Glad you only got sick briefly and that your food/snack supply is lasting.
    We missed you on Thanksgiving but are so glad for this experience you’re having!
    The yuppies miss you, we all do!

  2. Hank-
    It was fun to hear your voice this morning. I’m happy that you’ve mostly been healthy and happy. Seems like you’ve been very busy, as we’ve read all the blogs about the trip. Love you. Dad

  3. Hi again Henry!
    It’s snowing here this morning as I wait to see your blog post… looks like ski season will be in full swing when you return! Loved hearing your voice yesterday!
    Travel safe, xoxo mom
