Our last day in Orchha was really good. We visited a school that was funded by charitable donations for the poorer children in the villages whose parents don't believe in education, the children were all so well behaved and they were given meals as we were told they often did not have enough food at home and were made to work from an early age. One of the conditions of then being in the school was that the children did not work. The school was set up by a lady named Eeva schults and she raises money to fund the school. We then went into some of the villages to see the way of life there. These villages were quite poor but the children did not ask us for anything, they followed us around and we took there photos and showed them, they all wanted to hold our hands and know our names. We visited 3 schools there and we completely disrupted the classes! They were practising their English with us, it was brilliant. In the evening we went for a cooking class with one of the locals in Orchha, we went to her home and she cooked and explained all the ingredients and we had a go at rolling some of the bread. We ate the food on her rooftop with a great sunset, the food was great and all the people of Orchha had been so friendly to us, I was really sad to leave!
