July News from Goa

Here is my latest news bulletin from Goa. I am back in the UK for a while now, having spent the last 6 months working in Goa. My time there has gone very quickly but it's been hugely challenging and rewarding. Click on the following link to read the latest news, which features photos of my holiday in Agonda (Southern Goa); updates about life in the school and community of Santa Cruz; and a report about my visit to the slums of Mumbai.
