Rishikesh - A Real Valley of Dreams

I had a fabulous Spring Break. For a whole week I traveled up north to Rishikesh for a relaxing seven days of hiking, trekking, and rafting. I saw things that amazed me, and felt things that I thought I, a people person, would never crave - the feeling of being alone. No matter where you go in India, you are always going to go somewhere where there are other people. In a country of over 1 billion, you have to find someplace to put them. So after an 8 hour trek, you finally achieve that feeling. Add that to the view and it's pretty amazing up there.

Finals are approaching soon, and I have been expertly putting them off. So, I'll spare you the detailed explanation of just what Rishikesh was like, just put some pictures, and get back to studying. It was a really great trip though, after six months in Delhi you just need to get out and smell some clean air. I highly recommend it.
