Greetings from Ashley
Hello everyone!
My name is Ashley Conroy and I am a junior at the College of Charleston in South Carolina. I’ve always been fascinated by the cultures of Asia, but my interest in India flourished soon after I began the practice of yoga a couple of years ago. I just declared my minor in Religious Studies and am planning to devote my area of focus to the Eastern religions when I return. While I’ve learned many things about the philosophies and traditions of Buddhism and Hinduism, I feel as though I’m only able to scratch the surface of these wonderful religions in the class room. This is one of the main reasons why I want to go to India.
In general, though, I love the feeling of adventure and new discovery when traveling abroad, and I can’t wait to meet you all so we can experience the amazing cultures of India together!
