Jen and I have only three weeks left in our trip. For any other travel this would seem like forever but since we have been traveling since we were married in August it feels like our trip is almost over.
Click here for the link for the Ashram we are staying at.
Currently we are staying at an Ashram outside of Rishikesh. It is a very interesting place, if you looked at the website you will understand. I was not one hundred percent sure that I liked the Ashram until we had a day off and went to the market and explored the city. What was striking to me was how much I missed the routine and the serenity of the Ashram.
The Ashram has the Ganges river walking distance from the back gate. Two wonderful dogs that let you rough house or rub their bellies. We have a set schedule which is quite different from normal life and yet after doing it for a few days it feels natural and peaceful. One of the most amazing things is the food, because it is on the perfect balance of being healthy and tasty. Often Jen cooks amazing meals but I get into trouble because they are so delicious and rich that I eat to much and regret it later. Here they have food which is full of things freshly picked but it is not so rich that I eat to much, this is a amazing because it is technically all you can eat.
We have 4 more days left at the Ashram and I am amazed that I do not think that I will get bored and want to leave early. It is amazing how much time you can spend reading good books and having conversations about religion and spirituality. I think also we are lucking because we are traveling with an old friend and two of his friends who are all amazing.
We are getting excited to see all of our family and friends in the States. Also, we are excited to see our dog Artie.
