Yesterday, our last full day in Chinchoti, started off with some time following our homestay families as they went through their daily routines. While there were a variety of activities, many students helped make food in their homestays, so parents, have your kids make you some Indian food when they get home!
In the afternoon, our leaders for the day, Will and Cole, gathered us together with the kids of the community for a final celebration. With the kind help of the community, Parish girls came decked out in the fabulous saris you'll see below.
That evening, after our celebration, there were even more festivities--Krishna surprised us with a concert by Chinchoti's local band.
It was hard to say goodbye this morning, but we leave Chinchoti knowing it has had a deep impact on who we are and where we are going in life, especially as we become global leaders that lead through connection with others.
We're back in Mumbai now and are looking forward to our last day together here before we fly out tomorrow night.
