Something huge possibly come my way

My uncle from India who has his own nonprofit has said I can come live with him for 2 to 3 months and he would introduce me to a lot of young people my family is from India my brother and I were born here in the US. This would be like a dream for me to get my foot in the door for social work. It would make my heart happy. I am still taking my time to think about it though. My mom and dad are happy with the idea. I have always wanted to do social work. I know there a lot of AA meetings in India I checked the website. Just wanted to share

It sounds like it could be a great experience. Have you been to India before?

Wow, that sounds awesome and scary at the same time! If you decide to go for it I hope you still post here so I can vicariously go to India too.

Hi Anoronha, is India much of a drinking culture?

No not a lot of people drink. My family hardly drinks and the people I have hung out there with in the past haven't drank.

I lived in India for 5 years as a kid. So I know what to expect.
