Wallet stolen

So one of the volunteers took the bus yesterday and it was quite crowded, she was on her way back from the dentist, so had her debit and credit card on her, and someone cut open her canvas bag and stole her wallet. That just sucks. Other than having to cancel it and wait 5 days to get a new credit card, a photo of sentimental value was taken, a few Rupees (worth like $2) and she can't get a new debit card abroad, that just sucks.

So, for me, having my bags delayed a few days, wasn't so bad. I am still lucky that is all that happened.

She has a good outlook on it, it could happend in Dublin, it could happen in London, it just happened in Jaipur. (she's Irish).

Anyway... Watch your wallet, those guys are professionals.
