Pushkar, India - November 22nd, 2006

I moved to the Lakeview Hotel by the lake and the people would be bathing morning and evening. I could see them from my window room. I met the baker man in the main street, and later he took me to see his bakery of which he was proud, and introduced me to his family few houses down the street. His daughter took a liking of me, and painted beautiful henna on my hands (front and back). The art was in my skin for about a week.
I also visited an ayuverdic store and the man gave me a container with herbal mixture to condition my hair. Then, took me to his house and his wife painted henna art on my hands as well. It is a big tradition in this town and I was proud of my decorated hands.
