It must sound very confusing and sudden, but this is quite how it has been for me. Things with the NGO in Kolkata didn't work out at all and I only just realised in the last two or three days that the situation won't change. It would just get worse. (I will let you know in more detail if you wish... I'm still in the phase where I'm talking about the wrong things that happened all the time... so I'll spare a little moaning for you! ;-))  So I decided to quit and leave for Delhi with Mesum and fly back home. With some stress and driving around we could finally book our ticket for monday. (So right now it seems just right to come home...) It is a big disapointment for me as I was looking forward to staying here longer and getting to know this country better. But I must say, if the working experience didn't materialise, I truly have got to know this country a bit better...

The Queen apparently used to stay here, although I don’t quite know how many times she came here. It is a huge marble building and now hosts several museums with paintings by British colonialists and also an interesting exhibition on the British rule and the Independence struggle. In many places there are exhibitions on the Independence struggle, which is a very present period in history. There is also a nice park surrounding the Memorial, which seems to be a place for couples to sit together on the benches in the shade. (Mesum, this time I didn’t try to sit on a bench and enjoy the park as I felt I had already enough of being more interesting than the exhibition inside… J)&lt;br /&gt;I also visited the Academy of Fine Arts nearby. There are several exhibitions on embroidery, carpets, miniature paintings and contemporary artists. There is also a room (which is the only air conditioned room and you have to take your shoes off) where a friend of Tagore donated some of his personal items, paintings, letters and manuscript. There is also a box with some of his hair inside… So I really got the impression how very important he still is for Bengal and also the whole of India.  &lt;br /&gt;Finally I went to see St. Paul’s Cathedral, which is quite big. I thought it would be nice and cool inside (as our churches tend to be), but unfortunately it was as sticky-humid-warm as outside… So as sticky-sweaty as I felt by now I made my way home and it started bucketing down, just as I got into a taxi…&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-115184102048928213?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/115184102048928213/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=115184102048928213' title='1 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115184102048928213'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115184102048928213'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/07/sightseeing.html' title='Sightseeing'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-115184088521239238</id><published>2006-07-02T04:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-07-02T04:48:05.226-07:00</updated><title type='text'>“If you want to see the real India…</title><content type='html'>... then you have to go to the villages.” (For people not familiar with this insider, this is what everyone keeps saying…) So this is what I finally did. We went by train to the Birbhum District, around three hours northwest from Kolkata. There is a place called Shantiniketan, which was founded by the multitalented Intellectual Rabindranath Tagore. He still is a very important person and everywhere there are pictures of him and people sing his songs and read his literature and poems. Shantiniketan is a very nice place and he founded a University there, which has become quite big and apparently many foreign people study there. After being in major cities it is very peaceful (shanty meaning peace) and there are mostly people on bikes on the road. We stayed in the house IISD owns and went by car to various villages. The people we met are leaders of Self-Help-Groups the organisation formed for the artisans. The women showed us their saris, bedcovers, dresses etc. they have made. They are all beautifully embroidered with a special kind of stitching called “katha”. I have rarely seen so beautiful cloths and it was interesting to see how these artisans live and work. You would never think that in such simple conditions (just sitting on the verandah, no light) people could make these lovely things. The people were ever so nice and gave us tea and fresh coconut they just got from their palm tree. Yummy! As every person in India seems to go under some category (or caste) these people are minorities, basically because they are Muslims. So IISD is working together with the Minority Commission to help finance these people and especially the oncoming trainings to improve their skills, design and knowledge in marketing. &lt;br /&gt;In the afternoon we went to a Tribal village. The people here belong to the Santhalis. They are very poor and mainly work on the fields of the landowners. They live in mud huts, which I noticed are very cool in the mid-summer heat. They speak their own language and have their own traditions. While we were there, there was a big dispute between the women from the self-help-groups and the village politicians. The latter weren’t quite sure why IISD was helping them and why they had given them cycle vans (a kind of “pick-up-cycle”). It got quite heated at some point but in the end it seemed to be cleared more or less. As she told me later, it seemed to be more of a dispute between two brothers, one in a self-help-group and the other in the village politics. So that was quite interesting, I’ve not only seen people from state- and national politics but also on the village level.&lt;br /&gt;The countryside is so beautiful here. It is very green and I’m amazed that every spot of land is cultivated. I more used to seeing grass fields at home (or sand in Ladakh) and then there is so much land here. The earth is red, which gives the terracotta it’s reddish-brown colour. Work on the fields is mainly done by hand and with oxes (Ochsen?), here and there you see a tractor. There are many ducks, which surprised me, and many goats (either blocking the roads or being butchered on the road side…). So, these days here have been a very good and interesting experience. And especially it is much quieter, green, fresh air and little cooler in the countryside (not to say “in se nature” J). Unfortunately I didn’t take any photos, I felt it would be a bit pushy to come and immediately pull out my camera. But I think I’ll go back next week, so maybe then I can give you an idea of what it looks like. Talking about pushy on taking photos, many Indian people don’t quite have a sense of that. One couple thought I was part of the decoration in a restaurant and acted as if they wanted to take pictures of the room. She just stood in front of me and took a photo! Without even the “madam, one snap please?” question. So if you ever feel a lack of attention in your country, just come here and people will be glad to just stop and stare and take your photo...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-115184088521239238?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/115184088521239238/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=115184088521239238' title='2 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115184088521239238'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115184088521239238'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/07/if-you-want-to-see-real-india.html' title='“If you want to see the real India…'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-115166982239483266</id><published>2006-06-30T04:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-06-30T05:58:54.103-07:00</updated><title type='text'>cochin -

(sorry, but you really constantly are getting cheated or at least everyone seems to try to...)&lt;br /&gt;So, hope more from this end of India soon...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-115114878609446892?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/115114878609446892/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=115114878609446892' title='2 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115114878609446892'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115114878609446892'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/06/im-still-around.html' title='I&apos;m still around...'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-115114753128748917</id><published>2006-06-24T03:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-06-24T04:12:11.300-07:00</updated><title type='text'>mysore -

I've been driving with Ms. Chaudhuri from IISD through nearly whole of Delhi to meet some of the officials here. So I've met some quite big shots in several ministeries and also one from UNDP at the UN Place... That's quite interesting and on Saturday I'm going to a Secretary's home and I'll meet his daughter who could also be of some help for my work here. Apropos work... what I'll be doing is the following: On Sunday I'm going to Kolkata (Calcutta) for about a month. There I'll meet people from the organisation and also I'll go to the village areas where all the artisans live. I'll be seeing how they work and live (they are mainly poor and some are from tribal origin). They do things like embroidery or pottery. This will be very interesting. I'll stay in a village, in a flat they rent for coming to "the field". Then back to Delhi (end of July, beginning of August) and here I'll do research on all the handicrafts in the whole of India. I'll also have to look at artisans work and all the information will be gathered for a webstore. They want the artisans to participate in the global market, but without third parties exploiting them. For this they're getting help from different ministries. So I'll be gathering information in the library and also from these people I have met. So it's much like the work I'm used to from Uni, except for dealing with all these big shots... :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I'll be writing more from Kolkata. Hope you at home are all enjoying a cool summer (not 41C like here...) bye bye for now and looking forward to messages...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-115044541162965122?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/115044541162965122/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=115044541162965122' title='5 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115044541162965122'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115044541162965122'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/06/pahar-ganj-nord-sued-ost-west-pahar.html' title='pahar ganj -

jalgaon - ajanta - aurangabad - ellora</title><content type='html'>was time to say goodbye to sylvia, was really nice to stay with you in ladakh, thank you very much!! so i took a train from delhi to jalgaon, a sleeper train, was quiet good, but noise all the time, craying children, and some discussion about the seat number. jalgaon is the main junction from the train coming from delhi, colcatta or mumbai. i was staying there in a really nice hotel, and the manager was a friendly helpfully man. then the next day i live for the ajanta caves. there was more then 20 caves, all are buddhist caves. there have some statue inside and lots of painting. the painting and the statue are some in a good shape, some are broken, or the painting falls down the wall. so sometime you will see only some pieces of the paintings. but the caves are really old, some 500 ad old(500 years before jesus). was really intresting to see this, full of details, and we was looking around for more then 4 hours (a boy from holland joins me). the paintings and the statue tells you a story about buddha when he was on this earth. in every cave the guard tells you do the pictures not with flash, and after the 10th cave i was thinking now i knew it. but still on the last cave i understod why there tell every one again and again. i indian took a pictures with flash, and the flash will destroy the paintings, so the guard was shout at him and then was a big discussion about this. and also it's not allowed touch the statue, but the indians must touch everything, its bad for the life for this caves, there will destroy faster then shut be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after visit the caves, i was traveling with the bus down to aurangabad. a nice city, with some trees and parks and looks very clean, not normal for a indian city. so i found a nice hotel a little bit outside. i rest a little bit and then the next day i was going to the ellora caves. there is three section, one is hindu, one is buddhist and finally the have some jain caves. i start with the importance cave, the kailash temple, a hindu cave, to show the god of kailashanta. in early days the temple was covered with white colour, to show the mount kailash, based in tibet (or china whatever). this mountain is for both, hindus and buddhist a very important place. i hope sometime i cane also visit the kailash. the temple was full with statue outside and inside, there was no paintings. i spend there more then one hour. to long, was so hot, and still i shut see more then 20 caves. after i saw all buddhist cave i give almost up, now i was more then 3 hours walking to see the caves, took a lot of pictures, and i was tired and thirsty. but i was thinking i want see also the jain caves. so i but myself together and walk to the 1km farest jain caves. was also intresting, something between hindu and buddhist caves. this caves in ellora not that old then the caves in ajanta, but the there are not in a good shape, and of course every indian touch and climbing the statue, and inside the caves stinks like hell, there are many bat inside and you will walk on a carpet of shit. so for me was the ajanta cave much more nice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;back to the hotel some christians have a meeting there, there speak about jesus and the bible. its nice i think, but make me sick when there start to talk with you and tell you shut believe in jesus, and start to force you to read the bible. and today in the morning i saw the pastor, i wished him a good day, and he asked me how are you? i told him, fine. i asked him also, and he says very fine, because im beliving in jesus and god help me......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;see you soon, im going now to goa, where i dont know. where the bus will drop me, there i start explore the state.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-115035599136048016?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/115035599136048016/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=115035599136048016' title='4 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115035599136048016'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/115035599136048016'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/06/delhi-jalgaon-ajanta-aurangabad-ellora.html' title='delhi -

Es war etwas ein nerviges handeln, aber schliesslich uebernachteten wir doch in einem der vielen Hausboote. Es waere noch indyllisch auf dem See, doch es hat so viele dieser Hotels, dass man gar nirgends hin sieht, ausser zu den naechsten Hausbooten. Srinagar ist eigentlich wie jede indische Stadt. Etwas nervoes machten all die Militaers die bewaffnet herum standen oder hinter Sandsaecken an Strassenecken eingebunkert waren. Doch all die vielen indischen Touris (ganze Busse und Taxikolonnen voll) und die paar wenigen auslaendischen Touris beruhigten wieder. Die Leute schlendern am Seeufer entlang und die Stimmung ist eigentlich ganz entspannt.&lt;br /&gt;Wir besuchten einige Moscheen, einen Garten (ja da war ich wohl die groessere Attraktion als die Blumen und Wasserfontaenen...:-) ein snap hier und ein snap da...) und machten eine entspannende Shikara-Fahrt. Eine Shikara ist ein kleines Boot, mit dem man zum Hausboot gelangt oder eben um den See gepaddelt werden kann. Es gibt Leute die wohnen wirklich auf dem See, meist auf kleinen Inseln. Dort wird auch auf "floating gardens" Gemuese und Blumen angepflanzt. Es waren also zwei entspannende Tage in Srinagar, vor allem war es nicht zu heiss, vielmehr regnete es. So sahen wir erst am Morgen der Abreise die schneebedeckten Berge.&lt;br /&gt;Nun zurueck ins "sizzling" stickige Delhi...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114976990902501422?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114976990902501422/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114976990902501422' title='1 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114976990902501422'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114976990902501422'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/06/2-tage-in-srinagar.html' title='2 Tage in Srinagar'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114976911148354962</id><published>2006-06-08T05:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-06-08T05:37:18.846-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ueber die Paesse nach Srinagar</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3523/2097/1600/PICT1077.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3523/2097/320/PICT1077.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3523/2097/1600/PICT1075.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3523/2097/320/PICT1075.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Die Fahrt von Ladakh nach Srinagar war sehr eindruecklich.

Es war super schoen! Wir fuhren also zuerst nach Likir am Sonntag abend. Weil wir es verpasst hatten mit dem Bus gleich weiter zur Gompa zu fahren, liefen wir am naechsten Morgen hinauf. Es dauerte etwa eine Stunde. Das spezielle an diesem Kloster ist, dass es eine sehr grosse Maitreya (Buddha) Statue draussen hat. Es war sehr eindruecklich! Wir folgten einigen Schulkindern den "Schliechwaeglis" nach wieder zum Dorf zurueck. &lt;br /&gt;Von dort liefen wir ueber einen kleinen Pass und durch eine fast mondhafte Landschaft nach Yangthang. Dort uebernachteten wir in einem Guesthouse. Wir schliefen aber im Haus der Familie und assen auch mit ihnen. Das war super, denn so konnten wir etwas mit ihnen sprechen. Die meisten Leute im kleinen Dorf waren beschaeftigt mit pfluegen. Die Menschen hier arbeiten wirklich sehr hart. Uns fiel hier vor allem auf, dass es Schulkinder hatte und dann aeltere Leute. Die Personen im mittleren Alter schienen fast alle zu fehlen. Es isch schon krass, wie man zum Teil sieht, wie Doerfer sich einfach leeren weil viele nicht mehr dort leben wollen. Am Morgen frueh erhielten wir Fruehstueck in der Kueche. Der Junge der Familie machte sich bereit fuer den zwei-stuendigen Marsch zur Schule! Wir waren schon etwas baff, dass er so weit laeuft jeden Tag. In Yangthang hat es naemlich nur eine Primarschule, danach muessen die Kinder ueber den Berg nach Hemis-Shupachen. &lt;br /&gt;Wir liefen als morgens frueh hinter dem Haus den Fluss hinunter. Es hatte viele Baeume und Straeucher und war sehr schoen. Wir besuchten das Kloster Rizong, das anscheinend sehr streng sein soll. Nach einem kleinen Snack (wir assen meist geroestete Gerste mit gedoerrten Aprikosen...) liefen wir den recht steilen Pass hinauf. Das war (zumindest fuer mich) schon noch recht anstrengend. Es war auch recht heiss so mitten in der Sonne zu laufen. Oben angekommen haengten Mesum und ich unsere Gebetsfahnen auf. Ein etwas steiler Weg fuehrte hinunter nach Hemis-Shupachen. Wir waren also recht muede und fanden nach etwas suchen ein tolles Guesthouse. Die Leute waren super nett und es war ein schoenes Haus. Am Abend erhielten wir sogar Chang! Jetzt hab ich es endlich auch mal gekostet... Die Frau sagte immer, es sei "good chang, good chang". Schon nach dem ersten Glas merkten wir, was sie damit meinte...&lt;br /&gt;Am naechsten Morgen liefen wir zuerst einen kleine Pass hoch und dann fuehrte der Weg hinunter und wieder steil hinauf. Diesmal war der Pass auf 3900m, das war auch recht hoch! Es ist schon etwas anders hier auf dieser Hoehe zu laufen, keuch keuch...&lt;br /&gt;Dann begann das abwaerts laufen und meine Blasen an den Fuessen freuten sich. Der Weg fuehrte nach Ang und von dort war es eine geteerte Strasse, was nicht sonderlich bequem zum laufen ist. In Tingmogang nahmen uns zwei Truck-fahrer mit zur Hauptstrasse hinunter. Das war super, weil niemand von uns mag wirklich so abwaerts laufen. Von hier aus nahm uns ein weiterer Truck mit, diesmal beladen mit Holz und zwei Scooters. Mesum und Bija fanden noch Platz auf der "Toolbox", ueber dem Fahrer. Wir sprangen in Uley-Tokpo aus, dort ist Sonam Wangchuk aufgewachsen. SEin Bruder hat dort ein Resort aufgebaut und wir freuten uns vor allem auf die warmen Duschen...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Es war also ein super Trek und nur empfehlenswert. Die Landschaft ist so schoen hier und staendig etwas anders. Auch wenn es sehr trocken ist (und ich mir beim Aufstieg ab und zu ein Swimmingpool gewuenscht habe...), wechselt es doch immer. Die Gesteine sehen immer wieder anders aus, auch ist die Landschaft farbenfroh. Die Berge sind rot, braun, beige, grau oder gruenlich. Auch sind die Leute so freundlich und es war immer ein Erlebnis in den Guesthouses. Vor allem ist es jetzt nicht allzu heiss und die Doerfer sind ganz gruen, weil es immer Baueme hat und die Felder langsam gruen werden. &lt;br /&gt;Julley!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS: "hint" Nr. 2: Wir freuen uns wirklich auf Comments auf dem Blogg... :-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114862264713180365?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114862264713180365/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114862264713180365' title='3 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114862264713180365'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114862264713180365'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/05/trekking.html' title='Trekking'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114792891988570997</id><published>2006-05-17T22:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-05-17T22:08:39.886-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Fieldwork with the Dzos</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2059/2069/1600/Fieldwork%20with%20the%20Dzos.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Er verstand es aber schon ein bisschen, und er wusste ja dass ich ja wegen dem elektrischen hier bin und nicht zum herumsitzen. Und er sagte mir auch das Angchuk Geld einbezahlen sollte nach Delhi wo das elektrische Material bestellt wurde. Natuerlich hat er es nicht gemacht. Angchuk war auch nicht Entschaescht, dass ich gehe, so sagte ich mir so ist es nicht schlimm. Dass ich doch noch Arbeit habe, haben Sie mich mitgenommen zu einem Project von der Indischen Armee (Secmol groesster Arbeitgeber) wo Sie ein Army Guesthouse machen, wo die Soldaten mit der Familie Ferien machen keonnen. Sie Design alles selber und so sollte ich das elektrische in die Hand nehmen, also die Leitungen ziehen und alles verkabeln. Ich habe dann alles gezeichnet und eine Material Liste gemacht am naechsten Tag. So war ich schon fertig, aber ich war in der Meinung, Sie sollen das auch lernen sicher mal die im Project arbeiten. Ich zeigte dann wie auf dem Computer alles gezeichnet wird, die Schemas und die Bauzeichnungen wo die Rohre verlegt werden. Weil aber Youth Camps stattfinden wo etwa 50 junge Leute hier sind, muessen Sie unterrichten, und haben keine Zeit zum lernen. Auch vertroesten Sie mich jeden Tag das dass Material von Delhi jederzeit kommen sollte, aber der Mann in Delhi weiss eben nicht was wir wirklich bestellt haben, er sei nicht der schlauste in Sachen elektrisch…. So verging eine Woche mit nichts tun… fast…. Zum Glueck gab mir Ama Dolma Arbeit. Ich entwickelte eine Box mit einem Solar Panel drauf einer Batterie drin die mit dem Panel geladen wird. Die Batterie speist einen Kassetten Recorder fuer 4 ½ Stunden. Mit der Zeichnung in der Hand ging ich nach Phey, der Lehrer (Urgen) zeigte mir ein Schreiner in Phey, die machten mir die Box im Nu. Mit Chang in der Hand und einem grossen Lachen im Gesicht konnte ich den Schreiner zu gucken wie Sie die Box herstellten. Grandios!!! Alles von Hand, mit keiner Maschine!! Die Freude war noch groesser am naechsten Tag als ich dann alles verkabelte und die Batterie mit Solarstrom lud und nachher Musik hoeren konnte. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am Samstag gings dann wieder einmal nach Leh, wir gingen frueher als sonst, weil Sie hier in Ladakh Buddhas Geburtstag feiern (normalerweise ist es einen Monat spaeter) und so liefen wir Bija, Sylvia, Sorab und ich an die Hauptstrasse und konnten prompt mit einem Militaerlastwagen bis nach Leh fahren. Leider waren wir ein bisschen spaet dran, doch sahen wir einen schoenen Umzug in Leh. Sie zeigten auf Lastwagen ausschnitte von dem Ur-Buddha die Sie nachspielten. Alle Schulen von Leh und ausserhalb nahmen am Umzug teil, wir fanden es schade dass Secmol nicht mit machten, und viele Menschen waren auf der Strasse, ich denke das ist fuer die Buddhisten einen wichtigen Feiertag. Natuerlich sahen wir fast die ganze Verwandschaft von Ama Dolma, es ist schoen Leute zu kennen in einem fremden Land. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am naechsten Tag ging ich dann mit dem Motorrad nach Rumchung, die Strasse ist nicht gerade der Hammer, doch ich mag es sehr wenn es ist wie eine Motocross Piste und die Honda Hero laeuft sehr gut. Nach gut 2 Stunden erreichte ich Rumchung, ein kleines Paradies auf Erden. Nur 3 Haeuser inmitten einer traumhaften Landschaft. Weil Sie so abgelegen sind haben Sie Solar-Strom. Ich schaute ob alles in Ordung ist und notierte mir was ich mitnehmen muss wenn ich dann wieder mit Sylvia hier zurueck kommen werde. Der Chang war wieder koestlich!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gleich am naechsten Tag ging ich mit dem Motorrad nach Murudogs, auch wieder eine Motocross Piste. Hier war aber wirklich das Paradies! Ich wurde wieder herzlich Empfangen! Sie sprachen mit mir Ladakhi ich mit Ihnen English und es ging gut! Ich wollte eigentlich gerade hier bleiben! Aber ich musste ja wieder zurueck, und ich bin mir sicher Sylvia will das auch noch sehen. Auch hier ist was defect an der Solar Anlage, die ich flicken werde wenn ich das noetige Material in Leh gekauft habe. Als ich zurueck fuhr sah ich Leute die mit den Dzo’s (kreuzung von Jak und Kuh) die Felder pfluegen. Und einen Mann erkannte ich wieder der am Morgen mit dem Dzo auf der Strasse lief und ich nach dem Weg nach Murudogs fragte. Ich ergriff die Gelegenheit und fragte ob ich Photos machen duerfte wie Sie hier arbeiten. Sie hatten grosse Freude daran ,dass ich Photos machte, und Ihnen auch gerade zeigen konnte, da ich ja meine Digi-Cam dabei hatte. Die Freude war so gross dass Sie mir Chang offerierten. Mir ist gerade in den Sinn gekommen fuer nicht Ladakhis und Tibet Reisende es ist das Local Beer das Sie selber brauen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Leider ist das Material nicht gekommen, und es wird erst jetzt bestellt, also ziemlich zuspaet obwohl ich schon mehr als einen Monat die Liste abgegeben habe. Und ich muss mich noch behaupten vor Angchuk was ich bestellt habe, er meint er sei der Chef obwohl er von elektrik nicht die leiseste Ahnung hat. Wir sind auch nach Leh gefahren um zu schauen ob am naechsten Tag ein Paket gekommen ist, ist aber nicht gekommen. Und muesst nicht meinen das geht so lange hier in Indien, der Inverter war kaputt vor zwei Tagen, Sie haben einen neuen bestellt in Delhi, der ist schon im Betrieb hier in Secmol. Aha hier hat es geklappt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also es ist unsere letzte Woche in Secmol, mal schauen ob ich noch was zu tun habe hier. Am Sonntag gehen wir auf einen 4 taegigen Trek, wo wir uns sehr freuen. Nachdem Trek werden wir uns wieder melden wie es war.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114792702843291893?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114792702843291893/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114792702843291893' title='0 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114792702843291893'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114792702843291893'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/05/letzte-woche-in-secmol.html' title='Letzte Woche in Secmol'/><author><name>mesumji</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03798082742798764389</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114750248931966689</id><published>2006-05-12T23:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-05-12T23:41:29.336-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Buddhas Birthday today!</title><content type='html'>Julley&lt;br /&gt;Today is Buddhas Birthday so we decided to go to Leh to see whats on. There were many people proceeding on the main bazaar when we arrived. First there came many women dressed in their special clothes, wearing their nice hats. Then came many monks, some with the big yellow hats. Some had the big 'trumpets', drums or big cimbals. The nuns came last and then the lay men, carrying big books with which they touched the heads of the people alongside the road. At the end children from various schools walked along singing. They all wore their uniforms. In between were some waggons with people showing different stages in Buddhas life. For example when he reached Enlightenment or when he gave his first teachings. It was very interesting, especially as we haven't seen any festivals yet.&lt;br /&gt;Things have changed quite a lot here. There are many more Tourists and the shopkeepers seem to have cleaned out their shops for the season. Also it has become very green, at least in the villages or around streams and rivers. So it looks very nice now, or at least in spots, and not so dry anymore. Also the road to Srinagar has opened up, so there are many delicious fruits and vegetables in the market. Jummy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some updates on our plans for the next weeks:&lt;br /&gt;We wont stay as long as we planned for in Secmol. So we are leaving next weekend. We will then go on a Trek (don't laugh, it's only the Baby Trek...) for four days. It's supposed to be very nice and a good one to start off with. We will be going with two other volunteers staying at Semcol. Then we  will stay on a bit to do various things for the family for Amma Dolma and also for the School in Spituk (or rather Mesum with his electrical skills and me as assistant...:-)). So we will get to see some more villages and do some more walking or trekking. We are planning to leave for Delhi in mid June. Probably over the road to Srinagar, we are still checking on the situation there, but it should be okay to travel through Kashmir. We will keep you all up to date about our further travels. &lt;br /&gt;Take care and Julley from both of us!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114750248931966689?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114750248931966689/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114750248931966689' title='0 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114750248931966689'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114750248931966689'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/05/buddhas-birthday-today.html' title='Buddhas Birthday today!'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114691461373344636</id><published>2006-05-06T04:13:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2006-05-06T04:23:33.733-07:00</updated><title type='text'>a bouncy julley</title><content type='html'>Ja heute sind wir zuerst mit dem Toeff nach Stok gefahren. Das war super und wir fanden diesmal uach den Weg... Stok ist sehr schoen, ein kleines Dorf am Rand der Berge mit einem Schloss und einer kleinen Gompa (Kloster). Wir besuchten wiederum eine Familie von Amma Dolma. Sie waren sehr lieb und wir bekamen wieder einmal der richtigen feinen Buttertee... mh... Danach fuhren wir zurueck nach Secmol und weil wir genug gegessen hatten liefen wir gleich wieder zur Strasse, um nach Leh zu gelangen. Da keine Busse und nur ueberfuellte Autos vorbei fuhren, hielten wir einen Armee Truck an. Wir waren zusammen mit einem indischen Neuseelaender und einer blonden (oder wie sie hier sagen gelb haarigen) Daenin. Die Militaers auf der Strasse schauten also schon recht bloed als sie uns hinten im Truck sahen...&lt;br /&gt;Ja sonst gibt es eigentlich nicht so viel zu berichten. Die Camps in Secmol haben begonnen, d.h. es sind etwa 60 14-jaehrige hier, um ueber Ladakhi Geschichte, Englisch und so zu lernen.

type='text'>krimi</title><content type='html'>Wie immer sind wir wieder so um die 8.00 Uhr aufgestanden. Es sollte wie immer einen normalen Tag sein. Punchok kam nach dem Morgenessen zu mir, und sagte dass wir die Stunde erst am Nachmittag haben. Das ist ja wiedermal lustig so schnell vor der Stunde einem noch mitteilen dass die Stunde ausfaellt. So gingen Sylvia und ich in den Compi-Raum um zu arbeiten. Sylvia an der Broschuere und ich am elektrischen. Am Mittag kam dann Punchok wieder, diesmal zur Sylvia, und sagte dass Sie die Schueler, spaeter kommen werden, weil schon wieder eine Pumpe die Wasser vom Indus pumpt gestohlen wurde. So sahen wir dem treiben zu, Gyaltsan, Norbu, P.Namgail, Gurmet und Stanzen, gingen die Steinhauer, die Steine verkleinern holen, und photographierten, ihre Schuhe den kleinen Raum in dem Sie wohnen und die Spuren im Sand. Die eindeutig zeigten dass Sie dort waren, mit Androhung der Polizei, machten Sie Sie gespraechig, da Die Steinhauer, es waren vier genau wussten wie grob die Polizei ist und die Sie gern und gut zu Tode pruegeln koennen. So sagten Sie dass Sie es waren die die Pumpe gestohlen haben, aber die kleine und nicht die grosse die vor 3 Monate gestohlen wurde. Die Steinhauer waren da gar nicht hier vor 3 Monate, die gehen ja ueberall hin um Steine von Hand zu verkleinern, und verdienen pro Stein den Sie haben 1 Ruppee was so viel ist wie 0.033 Rp, ja richtig gesehen 0.033 Rappen. Also nicht so viel wenn ein Lehrer oder einer der ins Militaer geht so etwa um die 6000 Ruppeen verdient (200CHF) im Monat versteht sich. Steine verkleinern aber sicher die strengere Arbeit ist und die Steinhauer keinen Sonntag kennen. Also so kommt doch gerade einer richtig der Ihnen anbietet etwas Sackgeld zu verdienen und ihnen ein Natel schenkt (6000 Ruppeen). Ihnen eine Motorrad zur Verfuegung stellt und Ihnen noch Geld gibt eben das Sackgeld wenn Sie Altmetal bringen oder eben einfach Metal bringen. Sie bekommen einen bestimmten Betrag pro Kilogramm. So nahmen Sie die Pumpe, die viel Metal dran hat mit, die im zerstoerten, die Wand ist eingestuerzt, verlassenen Pumpenhaus stand. Das alles kam aus als Sie mich aus erwaehlt haben, dass ich als Geleitschutz fuer die Secmol Leute nach Leh fahren soll, um dort den Metall-Dealer aufzuspueren um die Pumpe ausfindig zu machen. So ging ich mit den zwei Steinhauer, Stanzin und dem Fahrer nach Leh. Im Auto lang foermlich die Luft von Angst. Im Leh Office ging dann die Ausfragerei weiter, Sie filmten Sie auch waehrend der Verhoerung. Irgendwann fanden Sie heraus dass Sie die Pumpe auseinander genommen haben, aber von denen zwei die in Secmol geblieben sind, und die Studenten fanden auch noch eine Steuck von der Pumpe, kaput natuerlich. Da die unseren zwei das nicht sagten dass Sie die Pumpe auseinander genommen haben, gab es schlaege mit einem Stock, ich denke recht heftig, ich habe es nicht gesehen, aber Ihnen versichert wenn jemand wirklich verletzt wird von den Steinhauern, ich Ihnen auch schmerzen zufuegen werden will. Sie haben es begriffen und der Ton wurde freundlicher, und so konnten Sie bewirken dass die Steinhauer mit dem Natel dem Metall-Dealer anriefen und sagten dass Sie noch mehr Metall haben. Er soll doch nach Secmol/Phey kommen mit dem Lastwagen und Sie werden da sein und ihm helfen das Metall aufzuladen. In der zwischenzeit ging Norgay zu dem Metall-Dealer um zu fragen ob er eine Pumpe zu verkaufen habe, meiner Ansicht die duemmste Sache, was Ihn sicher stutzig machte, und vorsichtiger werden liess. So fuhren Tashi, Rigzin, die zwei Steinhauer und ich nach Secmol, Rigzin fuhr wie ein Rallyfahrer sehr sehr schnell und am Schluss kurz vor wir ankamen sogar ohne Licht, blind sozusagen. Rigzin ging mit den Steinhauern, Tashi und ich roppten Richtung Batteriehaus vor, da Sie abgemacht haben hier wollen Sie den Dieselgenerator entwenden. Ich kam mir vor wie in einem schlechten Film, oder in der Rekruten Schule? Da die Leute die kommen sollten nicht wussten wo Secmol liegt verzoegerte sich das ganze und wir legten noch mehr Metall bereit, das Sie entwenden sollen. Dann endlich kam der Lastwagen, mit Licht, und in unserer Hobby moechtegern ich bin der Detektiv Truppe ging noch Tashi`s Natel ab, was alle sehr erregte, da wir sehr nahe am Lastwagen waren, und die Steinhauer und die anderen mit aufladen beschaeftigt waren, das hoeren koennten, Sie haben das aber nicht gehoert. Rigzin, Gurmet und Norbu gingen die Strasse blockieren, wir warteten noch ein bisschen bis wir zum Angriff starten. Dann war es so weit, voellig im Dunkeln stuermten wir den Hang hinunter auf den Lastwagen, Tashi rief laut “Hand’s up” und schrie Angsterfuellt in der Gegend umher. Die anderen waren auch zur Stelle und es gab ein boeses Handgemenge, mit derben Schlaegen fuer den Fahrer und sein Helfer. Zur Stelle war auch ein Camera-Mann der alles filmte oder sicher das was Sie auf den Lastwagen hivten. Was nachher kam, errinnerte mich mehr an eine Tagesschau, es wurde gefilmt, Fotos gemacht und alle auf den Camp kam schauen, und lachten, was mich dann arg traurig gemacht hat, weil was die Steinhauer gemacht haben ist sicher nicht gut, aber hier auf dem Campus hat es Leute die genau so faehig dazu waeren. Aber dazu spaeter mehr, ich war muede von der ganzen hektik und verbrecher Jagd und ging dann ins Bett. Was Sie mit den Steinhauern und den Fahrern gemacht haben erfuhr ich erst am Morgen. Sie haben das Versprechen nicht eingehalten, Die Polizei kam und nahm dann alle auf das Revier in Leh mit. Was dann geschehen ist kann ich nur erraten und mir erdenken, auf jedenfall haben Sie den Metall-Dealer auch gefasst und noch mehr gestohlenes Material festgestellt wie Kupfer und anderes Metall. Ich werde euch auf den laufenden halten, sofern ich was oder mehr erfahre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Der neue Tag began, und die Steinhauer und die Fahrer waren nicht mehr hier auf dem Campus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Die letzten News vom Krimi, zwei Steinhauer wurden wieder frei gelassen, die hatten wirklich nichts zu tun mit dem allem. Dafuer haben Sie die Fahrer auf dem Revier behalten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Nimoo sind 12 Solar-Panels gestohlen worden. Kostenpunkt 5200 CHF.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114620190035836985?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114620190035836985/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114620190035836985' title='2 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114620190035836985'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114620190035836985'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/04/krimi.html' title='krimi'/><author><name>mesumji</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03798082742798764389</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114533977257624912</id><published>2006-04-17T22:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-04-17T22:56:12.586-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2059/2069/1600/PICT0967.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2059/2069/400/PICT0967.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114533977257624912?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114533977257624912/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114533977257624912' title='0 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114533977257624912'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114533977257624912'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/04/blog-post.html' title=''/><author><name>mesumji</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03798082742798764389</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114533912609308142</id><published>2006-04-17T22:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-04-17T22:45:26.093-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Old Palace in Leh</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2059/2069/1600/PICT0963.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2059/2069/400/PICT0963.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114533912609308142?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114533912609308142/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114533912609308142' title='0 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114533912609308142'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114533912609308142'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/04/old-palace-in-leh.html' title='Old Palace in Leh'/><author><name>mesumji</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03798082742798764389</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114533862985443260</id><published>2006-04-17T22:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-04-17T22:37:09.870-07:00</updated><title type='text'>was haben wir so gemacht</title><content type='html'>Jetzt sind wir auch schon schon fast 3 Wochen hier. Sylvia hat ein bisschen von Secmol geschrieben, ich werde ein erzaehlen was wir sonst so erlebt haben. In der ersten Woche sind wir die Mutter von Ama Dolma besuchen gegangen in Phey, das 3km weiter Flussaufwaerts liegt. Wir brachten alle die Sachen was Ama Dolma uns mitgegeben hatte. Leider konnten wir uns nicht so gut verstaendigen, da das Ladakhi von uns nicht weit reichte. Zum Glueck kam dann die Tochter von dem Bruder von Ama Dolma. Die konnte gut English sprechen und so konnten wir uns gut unterhalten. Wir bekamen Tea und feine Gueztli. Nach etwa einer Stunde gingen wir dann wieder. Sie baten uns unbedingt wieder zu kommen, das wir auch machen werden.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;An unserem ersten Wochenende gingen wir nach Phyang, ein Kloster anschauen. Wir liefen dorthin, zum Glueck kam Wangchuk mit dem Auto und wir konnten bis zur Hauptstrasse mitfahren, doch dann mussten wir laufen, die Strasse ist so richtig muehsam zum laufen. Sie ist etwa 4km lang und es hat keine einzige Kurfe drin, also schnurgerade, und wir meinten die Strasse hoere nie mehr auf. Endlich endlich kamen wir dann beim Kloster an. Es hatte viele Novizen, so richtig freundlich waren Sie nicht, und die, die uns die Tueren nicht aufschliessen mussten, lachten den aus der uns dann die Tueren aufmachte, und wartete bis wir wieder rauskamen. Es war schoen anzuschauen, nicht umwerfend, ausser einen Raum, der die Daemonen beherbergt, die gegen das Boese ankaempfen, der war wirklich intressant. Es hatte ein Skelet von einem Vogel drin, und sonst noch Knochen und Gerippe von Tieren. Wir sind dann alles wieder zurueck gelaufen, leider kam diesmal niemand mit dem Auto und nahm uns mit. So mussten wir 10km zurueck laufen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Die Amerikaner kamen wieder, und es wurde wieder laut im Campus, die Lehrer und Studenten haben nicht so freude wenn die wieder da sind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Normalerweise gehen wir am Wochende nach Leh, diesmal sind wir schon am Donnerstag gegangen, ich traf mich mit Norbu und ueberreichte noch Sachen die uns Ganden mitgegeben hat. Der Heimweg klappte nicht so gut wie wir nach Leh gkommen sind, da haben wir naemlich gestoeppelt, und es ging gut. Sylvia war schon am Busbahnhof und hielt mit Bija (eine Amerikanische Volataerin) Ausschau auf den Bus nach Phey oder Phyang, je nachdem, laufen muessen wir ja immer zu dem Campus. Die haben einfach in alle Richtungen gezeigt und aber einfach nicht richtig, so kamen die Ladys zu spaet auf dem Campus und konnten kein English geben. Ich schnappte mir noch den Toeff und machte mich auf die Socken um ein paar Photos zu schiessen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Weil Sie wieder Besuch erwarten auf dem Campus, hatten die Studenten alle Haende voll zu tun, und so vielen die Stunden aus. Wir ergriffen die Gelegenheit, und nahmen uns den Toeff nochmals, Sylvia sass hinten drauf, und ich fuhr zum erstenmal mit jemanden hinten drauf, es ging sehr gut, Sylvia hatte sich gut gemeistert und hat keine Faxen hinten drauf gemacht. Unser Ziel war es auf die andere Seite des Indus zu kommen, um so einen anderen Ausblick zu bekommen auf den Campus und eigentlich wollten wir noch ein Tal erkunden (dort hat es ein kleines Dorf, Rumbak) doch so weit ging es nicht. Wir fuhren zuerst nach dem tanken, auf der Hauptstrasse nach Leh, an all den Militaer Camps vorbei richtung Spituk, kurz vor Spituk ueberquerten wir den Indus. Die Bruecke habe wir eigentlich gut gefunden, aber nachdem die Strasse nicht mehr die eigentlich zureuck nach Phey oder Secmol fuehrt einfach auf der anderen Seite vom Indus. So sind wir mehr als schlecht als recht auf einer Motocross Piste gefahren und suchten eine richtige Strasse. Nach zig mal den Motor abwuergen und es “ist nicht mehr lustig” haben wir so was aehnliches wie eine Strasse gefunden, meinten wir, es war ein Wasserkanal, auf dem Trasse konnten wir gut fahren, bis der Wasserkanal aufhoerte und die Cross-Piste wieder begann. Also kehrten wir wieder zurueck und gingen wieder alles zum dem Fluss hinunter. Das Motocross Training dauerte mehr als eine Stunde, und meine Arme waren schon fast lahm. Doch gaben wir nicht auf, gingen einer so aehnlich was wie eine Strasse aussieht nach und kamen prompt auf den richtigen Weg. Die Strasse war nicht wirklich besser, endlich haben wir es geschafft, wir sahen den Campus von der anderen Seite. War wie ein Witz ein Katzensprung und wir waeren wieder im Campus gewesen, aber eben es hatte ja keine Bruecke. Die Aussicht war fantastisch, und wir gingen noch am Indus nach weiter, aber eben nicht viel mehr, das Tal das wir eigentlich noch machen wollten, dazu reichte uns aber die Kraft und die Zeit nicht mehr. So fuhren wir wieder zum Campus zurueck, und sagten uns wir gehen wieder, jetzt wo wir ja den Weg kennen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Schon ist es wieder Wochenende, diesmal wollen wir den Berg besteigen der neben dem Campus liegt. Norbu, Norgay, Bija, Helena, Sylvia und ich, das ist die Crew. Sylvia und ich sind die einzigen mit Rucksack, bepackt mit Tee und was zu Essen, und natuerlich die Camera. Die Rucksaecke werden schon bald schwer, und Norbu und Norgay nehmen uns die Last ab, die zwei sind wie Steinboecke unterwegs, und springen den Berg fast hinauf. Mich erstaunt Norbu, der mit seinen Halbschuhen die eine flache Sohle haben den Berg hinauf springt wie es nichts ist, auch schwatzen die ununterbrochen. Mir reicht es gerade um anstaendig zu schnaufen. Es hat keinen Weg, natuerlich, so folgen wir Wasserrinnen oder Tierpfaden, es ist steil, sehr steil, doch schaffen wir es nach 1 ½ Stunden. Nachdem wir Spuren von einem Bergleoparden gesehen haben stehen wir ganz oben am Gipfel. Dort sind schon Gebetsfahnen angebracht die bei einer Erstbesteigung P. Namgyal und Gyaltsan zwei Schueler von mir angebracht haben. Leider hatten wir keine dabei, aber werden das naechstemal mitnehmen, wir werden nochmals kommen da das Wetter nicht so grandios ist, aber die Aussicht einfach der Hammer ist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Da die Laryes (Familie von Ama Dolma) beschaeftigt sind, haben wir uns beschlossen eine andere Familie zu besuchen in Phey. Diese wo Emerita gewohnt hat, eine andere Volataerin die frueher hier in Phey war. Sie hatten grosse Freude dass wir kamen. Wir bekamen Schalenweise Tee serviert, auch Buttertea, Sylvia sagte so sie koenne mich verstehen, dass ich Buttertea gerne habe. Weil dieser war sehr fein, und genau so wie ich ihn in Tibet literweise getrunken habe. Das Essen war auch vorzueglich! Wir verabschiedeten uns und waren auf dem Weg zur Schule, als wir die Laryes auf dem Feld arbeiten sahen. Sie ruften uns und schon war wieder das Maedchen da, leitet uns gekonnt zu sich nach Hause und schon stand der naechste Tea auf dem Tisch. Da wir meinten dass Sie beschaeftigt sind, verabschiedeten wir uns und das Maedchen zeigte uns noch die Schule. Als wir wieder im Campus ankamen, berichteten Sie uns das die Laryes angerufen haben just als wir den Campus verlassen haben, und dass wir doch bei Ihnen eingeladen waeren.

Zuerst war noch vieles unklar, was wir genau machen koennen oder z.B. wie das Essen oder Duschen funktioniert. Doch mittlerweile sind wir schon ganz daheim hier. Wir haben ein kleines Zimmer fuer uns, das wir etwas eingerictet haben (ja sogar Sha-Rukh laechelt von der Wand…). Am Morgen stehen wir so um sieben auf, erledigen ein paar Dinge oder machen einen Spaziergang. Die Lehrer und Schueler stehen um sechs auf und haben zuerst “morning exercises” und dann verschiedene Klassen. Um 8.30 Uhr gibt es Fruehstueck. Das besteht meist aus unterschiedlichen Brotarten und einem warmen Gemueseeintopf oder Dhal. Das Brot ist sehr gut und der Koch macht manchmal auch solches wie bei uns. &lt;br /&gt;Danach bereiten wir meist unsere Schulstunden vor. Die meisten Schueler gehen nach Leh zur Schule, nur die so genannten “Solar Students” sind tagsueber hier. Mit ihnen (es sind 5) arbeiten Mesum und ich zusammen. Ich halte mit einer Amerikanerin zusammen die Englisch Stunden. Das Englisch dieser Studenten ist recht gut, ich hatte anderes erwartet. In der Stunde ueben wir Objekte, Raeume oder Arbeitsschritte zu erklaeren, Englische Aussprache, Textverstaendnis und solche Dinge. Wenn sie die Ausbildung fertig haben, werden sie Haeuser bauen, daher muessen sie lernen, genau zu erklaeren, wie z.B. elektrische Leitungen zu verlegen sind, wofuer die Solarenergie genutzt wird und so weiter. Es macht sehr viel Spass und wir lachen auch viel zusammen. Die Idee ist, dass ich eine Broschuere ueber ihr Energiesystem mache, die sie interessierten Personen zeigen koennen. Auch werde ich eine Powerpoint Praesentation machen, die sie Besuchern zeigen koennen.&lt;br /&gt;Wie ihr seht, ist die Schule recht gut ausgestattet. Es hat mehrere Computer, genuegend Strom, eine ziemlich gute Bibliothek usw. Es waere gut gewesen, wenn wir das vorher schon gewusst haetten, wir hatten keine Ahnung was zu erwarten war. Es hat eigentlich immer genuegend Sonne und somit geben die Solarpanels genuegend Strom her. Das Wasser zum Duschen wird dadurch aufgeheizt, dass es unter Plastikplanen durchfliesst, die von der Sonne direkt beschienen werden. Das Wasser kommt teils von einer Quelle und teils wird es vom Fluss rauf gepumpt. Die Zimmer werden tagsueber durch Plastikplanen, die an den Hauswaenden festgemacht sind aufgeheizt oder auch durch schwarze Fensterraehmen oder in der Bibliothek durch die Glasfassade auf einer Seite. Es ist also super, wie hier die Energie der Sonne genutzt wird und es gaebe fuer uns sicher viel zu lernen  und nach zu ahmen. Denn wir sind es ja, die so viel Energie verbrauchen. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am Abend essen wir alle gemeinsam. Da noch eine Gruppe amerikanische Jugendliche hier sind, sind wir recht viele und essen in einem grossen Raum. Waehrend dem Essen hoeren wir (oder viel mehr die Ladakhis) die lokalen Nachrichten und jeweils eine Person muss eine wichtige Nachricht auf Englisch uebersetzen. Da nicht alle so gut Englisch sprechen und etwas nervoes sind, verstehen wir oft doch nicht ganz was jetzt geschehen ist. In der Kueche hat es aber viele verschiedene Zeitschriften und Zeitungen. So sind auch wir stets informiert ueber das Geschehen in Ladakh, Indien und dem Rest der Welt. Das ist wirklich super, wie sie das foerdern, dass man informiert ist ueber das Weltgeschehen. Es ist auch super interessant, diese Hefte, Zeitschriften und Zeitungen zu lesen und so eine andere Perspektive zu gewinnen. Beim Essen singen wir immer noch ein Lied und jemand erzaehlt etwas ueber sich, z.B. ueber das Dorf, die Schulbildung oder ein Fest. Das ist interessant, denn so erfahren wir immer auch etwas ueber die Schueler oder die anderen Volunteers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So sieht also etwa unser Tagesablauf aus. Es gefaellt uns sehr hier zu sein, die Leute sind sehr nett und die Landschaft ist einfach umwerfend. Es ist also definitiv ein Besuch wert, falls jemand die Sommerferien noch nicht verplant hat!&lt;br /&gt;Wir hoffen euch bald mehr Ladakhi News berichten zu koennen.&lt;br /&gt;Julay!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114490561310481325?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114490561310481325/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114490561310481325' title='11 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114490561310481325'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114490561310481325'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/04/endlich-wieder-neugikeiten.html' title='Endlich wieder Neugikeiten!'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114380893776139797</id><published>2006-03-31T04:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-31T04:42:18.160-08:00</updated><title type='text'>finally arrived</title><content type='html'>yep, we did it! it was quite a long journey, first my cousin drove us to the airport in basel (do nomol danke vil mol, gell!!). We had some overweight (well not we, our luggage...) and we smiled very nicely and the lady let us through without paying the supplement. then we flew to london and from there to delhi. we had to wait there from 11.30 t0 5.30 in the morning until we could fly on. it wasn't too bad, time went by quite fast. and this morning we finally arrived in Leh. The flight went okay and at the end the sky cleared up a bit and we could see the mountains. That was so fantastic and especially, to land in Leh we had to fly very close to the mountains.&lt;br /&gt;The coutryside is really very impressive and most of the mountains are still white. It's not too cold and the sun warms up during the day.&lt;br /&gt;At the airport Norbu from Aktion Ladakh came to get us and took us to his place first where we had some delicious parathas and tea. From there he took us to a hotel here in Leh. We're going to stay here at least until Sunday. We really need some time to recover from the long journey and especially also from the climate and altitude change.&lt;br /&gt;so that's all for now, luv from us up here!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20611412-114380893776139797?l=indien2006.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/feeds/114380893776139797/comments/default' title='Kommentare zum Post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20611412&amp;postID=114380893776139797' title='0 Kommentare'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114380893776139797'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20611412/posts/default/114380893776139797'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://indien2006.blogspot.com/2006/03/finally-arrived.html' title='finally arrived'/><author><name>sylvia</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11152914755141734191</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20611412.post-114337349599287945</id><published>2006-03-26T03:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-26T03:44:56.003-08:00</updated><title type='text'>getting excited</title><content type='html'>Die Spannung steigt mit jedem Tag, den wir weniger zum vorbereiten haben... Wir haben nun einiges über Ladakh, Secmol und Umgebung erfahren. Dank Tselha und Pema vom Tibet Corner in St.Gallen, Dolma Tethong und Emerita Rusca haben wir schon einige Kontaktadressen in Leh und Phey. Phey ist ein kleines Dorf, das von der Schule Secmol etwa eine halbe Stunde zu Fuss dem Indus entlang liegt. Zudem haben wir einige Geheimtips erhalten für schöne Ortschaften und Klöster von denen wir hier sicher bald berichten werden. &lt;br /&gt;Also dann, tschüss liebe Familien und Freunde! Bis bald auf diesem Blog!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every day we're getting more and more excited about going to Ladakh. We've got to know more about Ladakh, Secmol and the region. Thanks to Tselha and Pema from the Tibet Corner in St.Gallen, Dolma Tethong and Emerita Rusca we've already got some contacts in Leh and Phey. Phey is a small village near the school of Secmol, about half an hour on foot along the river Indus. They also gave us some insider tips for beautiful places and monasterys we can visit.

We're trying to learn a little Ladakhi, so we can at least say "hello" and "thank you" when we arrive. (For those who don't know (or have forgotten), we're leaving on the 30 March.)&lt;br /&gt;Mesum will be working together with some of the students and teaching them skills around electricity and solar panels. I'll be working in the camps the school organises once a year for the students. I'll mainly be doing English conversation classes, but what exactley I can do, I'll find out when I'm there.
