So as I sit here in DC waiting for my new earlier flight I contemplate this amazing journey I have experienced these past five weeks. I know I have grown as a teacher and a student and discovered more about myself. I will miss my comrades, especially my other two Musketeers Alexis and Sarah. We all parted ways to various destinations in the past five hours, but the memories and experiences I will take with me forever.
I know I have become a better teacher and learned so much as a teacher in India. I will miss all my students and colleagues at Loreto. My mentor teacher Debatri taught me many things and I am grateful for her assistance and time. I was sad to hear her grandfather passed away the morning I left Kolkata. She is very close to all her family and is such a warm and welcoming lady. I am sad that our awesome partnership ended on such a sad note.
As I am traveling these past two days, I miss the sights and sounds of India. However, I will be very glad to get home to the kids and Bueno. It will be nice to just rest a few days and not have to be anywhere. I will have a few more posts to finish out this part of my blog in a day or so.
I started this blog about my Fulbright trip to Kolkata, India in the summer of 2013. I hope you enjoy reading about my experiences, commentary, and thoughts. There are a few pictures to give you further insight. I continue to update it with news and information about India, education, and teaching. Please leave comments and reactions. Enjoy.
