 Adventures of a Travel Addict Ann Jaimi Post Count: 28 Msg: #1 77 weeks ago, June 28th 2008 | Does anyone know of any places in South India, preferably rural, where I can spend a few weeks volunteering and working with the locals? | The only projects I've come across cost about a grand for 2 weeks which seems absurd to me, knowing how low the standard of living is in this part of the world. I'm specially interested in working in a rural setting in the southern part. alotusgirl yogaman Tracy Cox Post Count: 5 Msg: #2 77 weeks ago, June 28th 2008 | Hi Ann~ | If you will be in Mysore there is a program called Operation Shanti run by a woman from San Francisco who lives there 10 months out of the year. You can go to the website at www.operation-shanti.org or read the blog to learn more at http://operationshanti.blogspot.com/ here is my blog as I brought shoes to them while I was there in January. It was VERY fulfilling work, I must say! http://alotusgirl-tracy.blogspot.com/ email me if you need anymore info! alotusgirl at comcast dot net Namaste~ Tracy Adventures of a Travel Addict Ann Jaimi Post Count: 28 Msg: #3 77 weeks ago, June 29th 2008 | thanks so much Tracy. | Number of Users: 2 | Number of Posts: 3 | |||||||||||
