We've arrived in India!

For those of you that don't know, Jen has won a travelling scholarship from The Winston Churchill Memorial Trust to travel to India and Nepal to research textiles and social enterprise projects. As a true follower of Jen: her buddy, co-worker and the other half of The Studio, Lynsey Wells has joined her on this amazing trip!

Well, our adventure has truly begun. After brilliant flights (with built-in plane cameras so we could see our take off and land from the pilot's viewpoint which was truly amazing and helped with any flying wobbles) we landed in Chennai and got straight into that wonderful instituition that is an Ambassador Taxi!

We spent the day dodging traffic- including rickshaws, trucks, buses and cows, getting whistled at by officials for going into the grounds of a closed museum- everything stops on Friday, and getting VERY VERY HOT! Everything's brilliant though and we're having so much fun already.

First appointment today, so off we go into the 33 degree craziness and we'll be posting again soon!
