Hi everyone!
Hopefully for students, finals are going well. We also hope that our alums are getting ready to enjoy the Holiday Season.
I recently found these on the BBC Travel section online. They contain articles originally written for Lonely Planet and there is one of them for each of the cities that HCAP will travel to for our Spring Break Conference.
Mumbai (There is not an article on Mumbai, so here is the link to the section on India in general)
After a long day at Harvard-Yale:
HCAP Presidents: Lin Li '08, Sonam Velani '09, and Maeve Wang '11

Hopefully we’ll have some posts up soon that discuss the themes of the upcoming conference - discussing talking points, previewing key speakers, etc - however, we are currently in Reading Period, about to embark upon finals. I don’t feel like we have to explain ourselves too much.
And no, I’m not posting pictures from Primal Scream. I’m posting some photos of style I saw abroad. A number of our foreign delegations (Hong Kong, Tokyo, and Singapore - but not limited to them) are very sartorially skilled. These fashionistas (and fashionistos -?) taught us a thing or two about dressing to impress.
Here are a few photos I took last year. More to come from other delegations.
Singapore knows fashion...
Our favorite Disney Princess
The Color Purple... and Lilac, and Orchid, and Pink, and...
Tailoring: Sometimes you have to start from scratch.
This last one is from HCAP Prom last year. Stay tuned for more photos from Prom.
Don't forget about the boys!
One thing that most of my friends in HCAP and I do when we are abroad is take pictures of food in the countries to which we travel. At the conference abroad, where we are often treated to veritable feasts, staff members tend to document the trip in terms of food.
Here are a few photos of the Singapore Conference from last year:
Chicken Feet... looks delicious.
Grass Jelly Drink
Market Price? 2 for 3 Sing dollars
My favorite food in the world... thus far.
Mmmm, satisfied.
More food from around the world to come!
