Thoreau’s India Odyssey is a month long trip to India organized by the The Thoreau Group, a not for profit organization, and led by a designated leader for persons of all ages, interests and occupations. The trip party is normally made up by a group of 10 to 15 persons. Participants have the opportunity to paint, make music, participate in dance and theater, sculpt or write poetry or fiction. Yoga meditation and long walks in the desert punctuate their daily lives given to the internal creative pursuits. Participants are encouraged to contribute some of their time and resources for local development projects and to adopt one or more causes of their choice after they return to the USA.
