My wife and I started out in India with a trip to Mumbai and Jaipur in 2007. Thanks to my brother-in-law, we spent the next 3 years visiting the Christian Hospital Bissamcuttack in Orissa. We saw the excellent treatment of the patients in the area, and the equally excellent education of the tribal children in the surrounding villages, and we signed a sponsorship for a village school. The last vacation in India was in Kerala in 2011.
