My nine months as a Fulbright student researcher in Uttarakhand, India. My research is still being shaped, but I will be interviewing women about medicinal plant usage and hospital-based care in the rural Himalayas. My field sites will be in the Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve (home to the highest point in India.) I hope this study will inform not-for-profits, advocates, and policy-makers about women's health and health care-seeking behavior in this under-served region.

Some pictures that I forgot to add to the last post...
My first attempt at chapatis. The vegetable is pumpkin or kaddu.
The view of the mountains from my bedroom.
The area around my house. You can make out the mountains as well.
Love the pictures! It's beautiful and your chapati pic is making me hungry. Also glad that you are feeling better, and that you will be able to start your language lessons soon. Keep on truckin'!
