A Brief Introduction

Hi.
I'm Philippa, and this blog is intended to record my preparations for, adventures in, and memories of my trip to India.

I am due to leave England on February 28th, 2008, and will not return for 4.5 months.

The aim of the trip is to teach in an orphanage school called Dar-Ul-Fazl, in the North West of India, near Manali (famous for drugs and hippies!). I am going with an organisation called GAP Activity Projects (www.gap.org.uk) and will be working with an Australian girl named Celia at the school.

Of course, I also aim to be a tourist for part of the time, and have just bought myself a new camera (Canon powershot G9) for this purpose.

More information about me will come very soon, but until then, TTFN x
