Daily Report -- Day 1



1.6.14

We reached Delhi Airport at 10:00 a.m. and had our flight at 11:25a.m. This was the first

flight experience for some of us. So, we all were very excited. The flight took nearly two and a half hours and we reached Bagdogra at about 2 p.m. After taking lunch at Bagdogra we headed towards Kalimpong. We reached GFF office at 5:30 p.m. Mr. Saom Namchu, the Project Director of GFF along with the other GFF members extended a very warm welcome and served us excellent Darjeeling tea. He gave us a small presentation about the foundation and development of GFF and the various social works it does. It was really heartening to know that GFF is working so hard for the uplift of the various sections of society. They honoured all of us with beautiful traditional scarves called “Khada” in the local language. We then headed for Hotel Komfort Inn where we had to stay. Our rooms were very comfortable and cozy. The dinner was also very hot and delicious. After having dinner, we all went for a short walk in the neighbourhood to enjoy the serene environment. After coming back to Hotel we all sat in a common room and discussed about the day’s experience and had a wonderful time chatting, dancing and singing together.
