Culture Series Testomonial

The culture series was a fantastic component of my internship and one that really enhanced the overall Indian experience. It exposed the interns to the local language, art and culture. I was able to communicate with taxi drivers and order food because I knew basic Hindi. I was reminded that I am not the most flexible person when the team organized a Yoga session. We discovered the secrets of the Indian Kitchen and it was interesting to learn about Tandoor. - an Indian style oven used for baking flatbreads and cooking certain meat dishes. We got to express our artistic side at the Henna session. A Henna artist explained the process of applying Henna and the tradition of doing so.

My favorite part of the language and culture series was when we visited the 'Indian Handicraft Emporium' - It houses one of the best pieces of Indian Handicraft items, varying from ivory, wood and silk. It helped us appreciate Indian Art and it was a great place to buy souvenirs for family and friends.
