| The 4 meter Hanuman in front of our Ashram |
You may or may not know that I became a certified yoga teacher in San Francisco last year. It was 6 months of 13hours of yoga a week, plus a full time job at a start up, which is of course, more than a 40 hour work week. I don't know how many times I said, "thank god it's yoga and I'm relaxed when I'm done with the class", because I wouldn't have made it through. What does this have to do with travelling you ask? Well we decided to visit India, and it happens to be the birthplace of yoga and where yoga is mainly taught 1:1. How fortuitous. I knew immediately that I wanted to study for at least a week while there. I was so excited and began researching it months before we even bought our first plane ticket. I quickly found the self proclaimed yoga capital of the world was Rishikesh and it was to become the longest stop on the trip. A whole week in one town, something we haven't done yet.
