Highlights<br />

end, the responsibilities were passed onto the intern and nurse. As we left the<br />

hospital and crossed the street to head back to the dormitory, the owner of the<br />

juice stand was preparing to start his morning.<br />

This place is one of the area’s hidden gems. I have spent countless hours here<br />

sitting in one of those plastic chairs (background of the photo). While I have<br />

picked up a few words in Hindi during my time here, by no means can I string<br />

together a sentence. The shop owner, his mother, and his children all work at the<br />

store. With lots of hand gestures, a few words in English, and a couple in Hindi,<br />

we communicate back and forth. Most of the time we find ourselves laughing at<br />

the end of it all because in the same manner that I do not understand half the<br />

things coming out of my new friend’s mouth, I am confident he has no idea what<br />

I am talking about either. Yet somehow we have made this ritual work on a daily<br />

basis. With only a week remaining before I fly back to New York, there are many<br />

memorable people here I will have to say goodbye to.<br />

Welcome<br />
