India

Miriam Handler June 28, 2016

Dehli, Agra, and Jaipur in 11 days with 18 students. Being there made me feel mostly introspective, considering how in the United States we live for pleasure, and in this country, so many people live for survival.  The colors and spirit of the country were juxtaposed against the pervasive poverty pouring out of every street and alley on repeat.  People bathed in the water that was too unsafe for us to drink.  With my mouth closed tightly shut in the shower, I considered how privileged I am to live in a country where I can walk around without fear. Aside from the psychological experience I had, the ancient and historic architecture of this country is surreal.  I shot only with my cheap point and shoot and a disposable camera.
