Hello everyone!
Here I am, I am finally!
I took a long vacation since last August.
I tell you now a part of my journey as interesting!
Apart from that, I am currently in Japan and I work. I hope
able to tell you about my life in Japan later.
(But holaire seen my work in Japanese, it can be difficult ...)
India
was superb!
How would I ...... India does not leave me bored!?
At first, I participated in a workcamp.
This is 10 days of learning yoga in a very "sacred" (ashram) and the other 10 days of work in a small kindergarten-primary education.
We were 2 Dutch, 2 American, 2 British, 1 Finnish, 1 Mexican, 1 singapolienne, 1canadienne, an Indian and I Cordiner a Japanese.
life in an ashram was drive.
was the disciplined life of yogi monk. 5:20

6:00 meditation, singing sprituel, history of yoga
7:30 tea time 8:00
yoga brunch
10:00 11:00 24:30
theory classes small task for the common life
1:30 p.m. 2:00 p.m.
tea time course optional yoga yoga
3:30 p.m. 6:00 p.m. Dinner
8:00 p.m. meditation, singing sprituel, history of yoga in bed
10:30 p.m. I was interested in yoga before, and now I'm interested more.
This is not a sport but a lifestyle. How we
Menge, we think, we live ......
The meal was lacto-vegetarian.
Unlike what I thought was not bland but it was delicious! Then
"yogi monks" who come from all over the world were very nice!
was a pity that I do not understand English well at that level and then for the theory course.
Anyway, I had a great time there!
Second part of the site was more like a normal international site.
was painted illustrations with English words. (It is an "English" school)
Then, when you can, you taught what you could, like English, art etc..
And I, I taught origami folding Japanese paper.
They seem happy to have learned origami. So I was as happy
!!!!!!
The children were very curious, very cute and very adorable!
I do not know if the French or Japanese children also have the same purity of childhood.
Anyway, I had fun here too. In addition to our team
site was great.
Even if I do not know speak English, I do not feel excluded.
Because it was a good team!!
Thanks guys!
After the rally experience, I left all alone ...... During
Changyi, we can say it was quiet, everything was organized.
And now it was me who was the only organisateurice this trip.
I visited full of caves and ancient monuments.
was great, we see the power and spirituality of India.
But what interested me most was the actual life of the Indians.
What they live, what they eat, what they think so ...
It's hard to see it all by making a simple trip, but I tried.
What I frrapé most is that their life is very simple.
pentdant this trip I felt that my life is too materialistic and that we are over-consuming. The Indian
use items until they can no longer use them in repairing.
There is not much disposable stuff.
The packing list was often in newsprint.
A small snack in the street, there is also a newspaper, a base sheet eco-disposable or non-disposable plate they wash in a bucket of water (not very hygienic but ecological).
I also noticed the importance of water, especially hot water.
I think the majority of locals have no bathroom at home so they wash in the river, the lake, well or sink with a bucket of water.
Cheap hotels that I used did not hot shower.
So either I shower with water or FOID I was given a bucket of hot water and I washed with.
was not practical but it was doable.
Japan or France uses plenty of water without thinking.
But we think sometimes people without access to water as we do.
There are other interesting things;
- their clothing is a simple fabric like "sari".
- they eat with their fingers
- they do not use toilet paper in the toilet.
etc. ...
I do not know now what I mean ......
I'm glad this trip.
India has many problems such as poverty and offset between rich and poor, Margles all, I love this country very special!
