The Broad Abroad
- Kali
- This blog started as a way to keep in touch with family while I lived and worked in Jodhpur, India. Since then I've been in France, Germany, Belgium, back to Alabama, back to France...and now in Alabama again. So, it's a little bit travel, a little bit cross-cultural, a little random and maybe politically incorrect. As of August 2009 it will focus more on international everything in Birmingham. Next up is a sojourn to ARGENTINA in December 2009.

Do you ask these people if you can take their picture, or do you just take it?
Does the nose jewelry/ear thing have any significant meaning -- like their caste, single/married, etc.?
