Ride a Rickshaw in Kolkata!
Click the play button (lower left) for a ride in a motorized rickshaw down the streets of Kolkata. Ed, a Fulbright-Nehru scholar and friend in Kolkata, shot this on his way to Presidency College, where he is teaching. He takes this ride twice a day.
The video doesn't do justice to the thrill of it all. Turn up the volume to hear the sounds of Kolkata. Notice Ed's iron grip on the rail!
Ed has a much wordier blog than mine and you should visit it when you have a chance: http://edoshea.wordpress.com
I really liked this too! Good idea! Even the video is a bit nerve-racking--seems like it's quite an adventure!
ReplyDeleteHi Roman, Michael San Fran just told me you had a blog about your Fulbright Adventures. I look forward to following. I just learned I have received a Fulbright to spend next year in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia so I am excited to learn from your highs and lows.
