Uneventful and Pleasant Arrival

So I have arrived in Darjeeling, and I am happy to say I have little to report.

Classes are good, I may actually fall into the beginner catagory. I going to give the intermediate another shot monday with some preparation, because the subjects they are studying are much more in intresting. Well see, the begginer class is not bad, there is only one other student there and he has been living and studing in Darjeeling for about 4 months, which is quite alot of immersion. The other students are nice and the teachers are quite able.

I found a nice house with a Tibetan family above the center of town (they have a fantastic veiw from the porch) and they are very nice as well. They have been very kind overall and they are careful to speak mostly or almost only in Tibetan, which is really good.

Delhi was not bad, the area I stayed in Manjukatila is much nicer than Paragange where I stayed before. I did almost miss my train due to many mix ups (taxi drivers taking me to the wrong train stations, etc.) but it true India magic I hopped on my train as it was moving ;). Although later it stopped just a little down the tracks to load supplies, so I think I might not have missed it if I was a few minutes later, but it had a great dramatic effect. The train ride was really nice, they served me so much food I had to start refusing things, which the people riding with me thought was quite strange.

Other than that not much to report. I did also was like 5 kilometers to the Tibetan district of Darjeeling, only to find out that the center was in the center of town, that was kinda funny.

Take care everyone,
Ryan
