Village & Community
Life and work in the villages of the Rishi Valley.
Sankranti
My favorite festival – a 3 day long celebration of a successful harvest, the end of winter….and cows.
An RV Christmas
Celebrating Christmas American-German-Australlian style in the RV with a few friends.
Village Dance Performance
A few students put on a dance performance at the village of CTM (forgot what it stands for…) for one of their festivals. Totally amazing.
Chennai
A visit to Chennai in Tamil Nadu: Diwali maddness, getting “saree’d”, and exploring every corner of a fantastic city with friends.
Cooking with Ramolla
The other night, my downstairs neighbor and house parent to the dormitory, decided to cook a dessert for all 30+ girl’s before they left on holiday. A close disaster turned great success.

RV Rural Health Clinic
I work at the Rishi Valley Rural Health Clinic (RHC), about a 10 minute walk off of the RV School’s campus. The RHC serves predominantly low-income patients from the surrounding villages and beyond.
PO Box: India
My home on RV School’s main campus. I live in a room on top of the 11th-year girl’s dormitory, called Malli House.
