Culture Worthy of Your Calendar: Pull on that FRINGE … NOW!

Orlando International Fringe Theatre Festival

Coiled Up - Udaipur, India

A last minute decision to go to the nightly cultural show in Udaipur yielded great photographic results.  I arrived late and they sat me right up front, but it was perfect for taking photos.  In addition to traditional dances, there was also musicians, and women who balanced heavy pots on their heads while dancing.  The show was spectacular and colorful.

During college, I worked for a year at an international exchange company in Japan. I was lucky enough to live with host families, and learned about Japanese culture – and myself.
