I'm staying at BITS university, one of the best private universities in India. I probably won't upload a lot of pictures of the university because they have a nice photo gallery on their website (and because I brought an old slow computer): http://www.bits-pilani.ac.in
So I know some of you haven't heard the story on why I'm here, so I thought I would give a brief overview.
Western Rajasthan is an arid region with very little surface water and a quickly dwindling supply of groundwater. One possible source of water is their yearly monsoon season. I'm here to analyze the feasibility of implementing a widespread rainwater harvesting system. I'll be working with BITS university and an organization called Aakash Ganga. For more information about Aakash Ganga - you can visit their website at: http://www.raincentre.org/
