Year one complete!

Hello everyone, yes we know! We are very bad at keeping up with this blog thing! We have completed a year in India and we are surprised at how fast the time is flying by. Matt passed his final exam (we all knew he would, right!) and now he begins year 2 of actually interpreting Buddhist teachings from Tibetan into English. Its been a crazy year! Here are some of the highlights in case you missed them: Matt studied a lot, Tammi traveled to South India with Megan and Ali; Tammi went home for 3 months and missed monsoon season, Matt got wet and moldy, Matt missed Tammi, Tammi missed Matt, Tammi came back to India. Ok so now you are all caught up:)

I am leaving for Kathmandu, Nepal on November 13th to take part in a meditation course at Kopan Monastery. I'll be meditating and taking classes on the Lam Rim, a famous text in Tibetan Buddhism that teaches the path to Enlightenment. I'm not expecting to come out enlightened, but I am looking forward to a daily schedule of meditation.

Then after one month I will meet up with Matt in Delhi, where we will fly to Goa to hang out on the beach over Christmas and New Years. If anyone has the urge to join us we would be happy to see you! Matt will have one month off to relax and soak up some rays before going back to the rigors of school.

I'll post more about what's going on when I return from Nepal and Goa, till then check us out on facebook or drop us a line!
