India blog 2My second practice went well! Sharath adjusted me in Utkatasana and he helped me grabbing my ankles in Urdva Dhanurasana (bruggetje). I had lunch at home (learning to eat with my hands here ;)) and we met Eva and Edwin( also from Holland, has been here sinds half october and is staying till the end of march!) for a drink and ice-cream (the people from the ice-cream shop got their certificate in Rimini, Italy and the ice-cream was indeed really good)....
