Farewell India
 I'm back in Delhi for the week after 13 weeks in Chennai and 7 weeks travelling and guess what? I'm utterly in love with this amazing country and I'm very sad to be leaving! At the moment the plan is to come back in five years, do some more volunteer work and more travelling

An Unforgettable Remembrance Day
 At 5.30 this morning we joined the queue (the first of three) at Kanha National Park. The world and his wife seemed to be there but once inside the crowds miraculously disappeared. The organisation seemed to be better here than at Bandhavgarh, with the entrance operation running very smoothly.

 The three months here have gone reasonably quickly, largely thanks to the fantastic people I've been working with. As I'm sure I've mentioned I don't enjoy teaching but one of the reasons I wanted to do this project

Teaching the World to Sing
 Today is the day after Indian Independence Day, a national holiday here, where celebrations were held to mark 60 years of independence. The other volunteers and I celebrated by spending the day at a beach resort.

Work and Travel around India
 Feels hotter than ever today! Work is very busy I have 11 classes a week. Six of these are with kids, two with adults (both twice a week) and three are with anyone who wants a 12-week crash course in playing the keyboard.

Settling into India
 It's been over a week now since I arrived in Chennai and it's gone so quickly! I've settled in to my homestay with Sarah and Chandra, the maid, both lovely people who have made me very welcome.

One Week to go
 No less than one week till I’m off to India! I had my final vaccination this morning so I'm now invincible to anything and everything. I also started packing today and discovered my bag is too small, even though I'm travelling light - good thing I started early! Just a small amount of shopping left.
