Pictures from Diwali (better late than never)





So for Diwali I was with my new family. I had a lot of fun with my host mom and host sister making different sweets and special Indian dishes because all of my host moms family was coming to stay at our place during the holidays. We made laddu's and Chakli's, the Chakli's I really enjoyed (though they don't really qualify as sweets since they are more spicy than sweet.

It is custom to wear new clothes for the main evening of Diwali so my hostfamily had gotten me this amazing turqoise and Ivory coloured saree. This is a picture of me, my youngest host sister Juili and my host dad :)
