Somehow, it's already been an entire month since I've been home from India and I guess I'm still not over it. Taking a class on Hinduism isn't helping my case too much, because all I do is sit there, listen to my professor lecture, and think about India.

Here's a video we made on the way to Sarnath, a sacred Buddhist pilgrimage destination outside of Varanasi, India. In this video you can get the real essence of what big cities in India are like: loud, hot, and crowded! There's a saying that in India, drivers use their horn more than their brakes. The biggest shock a month ago when I was driving home from the airport in Boston was how quiet the roads were! You can also hear in my voice how sick I was (I was really sick for the first week that we were in India, after our crazy bus ride from the border). Above all though, this video really illustrates the colors, sights, and sounds of India. I miss it so much!
