I was in India as a member of the Cadre of Technical Assistant Grant Advisors, a volunteer thing.

This is a picture in the village of Mozri, in the Melghat region with Korku tribal villager who is starting a bicycle report shop an income generating project in his village.
I did three site visits to matching grant and 3-H projects in Surat area and in the Melghat region. I also put on a workshop on Project Management - I seem to have fallen into that area of expertise. It was a fast 8 days and I enjoyed. Marilyn and I will be back on a Rotary Friendship Exchange in December. Rotary does absolutely amazing stuff in India in the areas of health, education and water.
