You're most welcome Rick. This internship was a month or so, and I did it entirely on my own :)

Congratulations on your internship opportunity, Ishan! I know you are going to put this opportuniity to great use.

I've been tracking the River Mhadei situation, and as a Goan I'm thinking there has to be an alternate option.

Thanks Karena! I am quite humbled to know that you are following environmental issues here, so far away from the US. If only more people were like you :)

What beautiful descriptions of this restorative, important work, Ishan. Congratulations on your internship! It is always wonderful as a young person, to experience meaningful work. It will provide insights and serve as a guide to the opportunities you traverse and pursue.

P.S. I would love to read about the bus ride.

Thank you Dekera:) Your comment certainly brought a big smile to my face. I hope more people read about the magnificent work these people are doing!

Yes, don't worry, I will most certainly write about what it is like to take a bus ride through rural India. It is an adventure that everyone must know about, and hopefully experience for themselves at some point!
