The past few days have been really fun. Thursday night was amazing! Our friends from camp were going to a turtle hatching at Agonda beach and asked if we wanted to join them, of course we were like yeahhhh! It sounded really cool, you sleep on the beach with just a mat and a sleeping bag and then wake up at 2am to go looking for turtles. Unfortunatly the turtles decided not to hatch whilst we were there but it was still a really good night. The beach is untouched...

We've had a busy week! It's been great! We've both picked our projects, but we'll each tell you more about them in a different blog post!

They were really yummy too...

Mudbath was great fun! Only it wasnt exactly a bath, it was more getting up close and personal to an indian woman with a bucket of mud, our skin feels lovely and soft though! In the evening we left the ashram and caught the overnight train to Goa. We were quite shocked when the train first pulled up with indian people crammed into every available space and hanging out the doors. We were in a sleeper carrige which wasnt so bad however as we walked on we were greet...
