Samanway ashram

This is the ashram were I am volunteering at the moment. We are 4 volunteers. Anika is from Germany, Jennifer from Australia (I hardly understand her in English but she speaks Hindi very well), and Alicia from Peru. The kids living here belong only to the lowest and poorest cast. They get food and education, but they really lack hygiene. We are teaching them to shower and wash their clothes every day, because they catch very ugly skin diseases.



This is the man who created this ashram, about 50 years ago. People call him Bhai Ji, (brother Ji) as people were used to call Gandhi. He is 86 years old !
