Visiting Hyderabad was a lot of fun; it was great seeing and learning about a different part of India. One of the most interesting aspects of our time spent in Hyderabad was listening to many different women speak and talk about their views and experiences with working in a male dominated career. We went to Dhruva college were we presented and herd a wonderful panel discussion. It was inspirational and at some points very funny to listen to these women speak, I diffinitly learned a lot and increased my perspective on the advantages and disadvantages women face in the workforce.
Having the opportunity to share in the experience of the Lohri Festival at IBS College really allowed all of us to engage in the Indian cultural. It was so much fun to dance and celebrate with the students of IBS. It really allowed us to decrease the cultural gap between the students of Simmons and the students of IBS. We learned and shared a lot with one another about our different customs and beliefs. Ever school and everyone we have met so far has been really generous and hospitable. It is almost overwhelming how nice everyone has been, but in a good way. It was also interesting to sight-see and shop around the city because it allowed me to see how people in the urban setting go about their day verse those we have seen and met in villages.
