The world has become a much smaller place. Before someone has had the privilege of seeing another culture as distinctly different from our own as India is, it’s hard to imagine what the world is truly like. As I have lived here for the last two weeks, the curtain of mystery has been lifted and U can see that beyond our differences, we are all simply humans living our lives.

Through there is still an impossibly large number of things still waiting for me in this wide world, I know that underneath appearances we are all primates looking for happiness and understanding in a life whose specifics are defined by our culture, our family and ourselves.
