Svecha gorela na stole

After finishing up the trek, we are briefly in Almora before ending up the program in Syat. Even though we were in a lodge in Munsiari just a few days ago, the technology and buildings here feel so much more foreign. Is it because the trek is over and I know I won't be back in the woods tomorrow for an undetermined period of time? Is it because the program is coming to an end? Because I've been to Almora before, so this is a familiar place with technology and not another new exciting destination? Who knows?

I woke up at 5 of my own volition and decided that it was a great time to get up and get on the Internet, much to the shock of my roommate who insists that it is unnatural to get up before it is light out. Well, I have had a fabulous hour taking care of business, googling Russian poems I have been craving, and watching the sun peek out from beyond the haze over the hills.

I won't have Internet that much but it shouldn't cost you anything extra to text me, so I would love a "hello" or an update!
