Hello All,
Adi and I had a wonderful time in Nepal,
Meeting amazing alternate learners and educators from Asia,
It was a great learning experience for myself and Adi.
We could also share our work at Educationnext.in,
We got some amazing ideas and feedback from experts.
Adi pitched his ideas for a camera in an octopus Tank game and got support.
We are thankful to the Ecoversity Asia gathering for giving us this opportunity.
If you want to Support our journey - Buy us a coffee.

Visiting Alternate spaces
In Delhi, we visited many alternative learning spaces like
CreativityAdda
Azadwadi
The Community Library Project
Manzil
Learning about their work and how they are changing lives was amazing.
Some of these Alternate learning spaces are helping young people learn skills that they are interested in, some of them are creating a space with farm, art etc.
The videos will be coming soon.
Traveling is more than a trip
Why we have taken a learning yatra?
The learning yatra is more than just visiting beautiful locations
It’s meeting new people
It’s connecting
It’s sharing
It’s believing
It’s an attempt to know yourself a little more
Yatra* - translates to "Journey" or "Trip" in English.

Metting old friends and new
One great thing about travelling is meeting people and making good connections.
My childhood friend hosted us in Delhi, and it was great catching up with old stories.
We have been travelling mostly through gift culture where you get to exchange what you have with a purpose.
We also made many new friends and formed new human connections.
This can be a great experience for kids as they meet new people and learn from them.
I also realise its the warmth we share with humans that we crave more than anything.
