What I mean by this is the things that grow and live there- plants, animals, and the like. I think one of the oddest plants that I came across was a jackfruit. I have seen them before in Asian food marts, and I think I tasted one (not a fan) but seeing them on trees is very different then in a market. I am a fan of sci-fi so to me, many of the landscapes looked like a different planet at times, and with the red dust my mind wondered to mars often. I also got to see a few different animals, some of which live in the states but are not as common to see on a road. Cows, pigs, chickens, dogs, and cockroaches. The last of which are not too common (well at least where I live. New York is a different story), but the one animal that I was happy to see, and find exciting is lizards. They do not do so well in the colder weather where I live but I\u2019ve always liked them. My teammates are not too fond of them, in fact at 7beans a few of them fall into our seating area and they freeked out. It seems they are considered a pest, but some homes keep them, not exactly as pets but rather tolerate them there because they eat other pests. I also find them rather cute and wish we had them around here.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/global-entrepreneurship-innovation-india\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39\/2016\/01\/^12F0C4CA7B39F0EEBAADDCB3CBA6116A768926738954F24AC4^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-323 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/global-entrepreneurship-innovation-india\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39\/2016\/01\/^4A8D9FA556C8F618D74AF441CE648BD55B067FCB6923899231^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"^4A8D9FA556C8F618D74AF441CE648BD55B067FCB6923899231^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/global-entrepreneurship-innovation-india\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39\/2016\/01\/^4A8D9FA556C8F618D74AF441CE648BD55B067FCB6923899231^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/global-entrepreneurship-innovation-india\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39\/2016\/01\/^4A8D9FA556C8F618D74AF441CE648BD55B067FCB6923899231^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-322 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/global-entrepreneurship-innovation-india\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39\/2016\/01\/^12F0C4CA7B39F0EEBAADDCB3CBA6116A768926738954F24AC4^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr-191x300.jpg\" alt=\"^12F0C4CA7B39F0EEBAADDCB3CBA6116A768926738954F24AC4^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr\" width=\"191\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/global-entrepreneurship-innovation-india\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39\/2016\/01\/^12F0C4CA7B39F0EEBAADDCB3CBA6116A768926738954F24AC4^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr-191x300.jpg 191w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/global-entrepreneurship-innovation-india\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39\/2016\/01\/^12F0C4CA7B39F0EEBAADDCB3CBA6116A768926738954F24AC4^pimgpsh_fullsize_distr.jpg 238w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being on the other side of the globe, India seems very alien at times to me.
