They are kind of like really thin pancakes, but even more delicious.) The city of Puducherry, where my friends and I visited, has been influenced by French culture, so they have a lot of bakeries and cafes where you can buy popular French foods.

You might be surprised to hear that my favorite meal this week was not Indian food. In the cities of India, there are actually many different food options from around the world, so I do not eat Indian food for every meal. I promise I will tell you about the Indian food another time though, because there is so much Indian food here that tastes amazing!

What music did I listen to this week?:

I listened to some songs from an Indian movie called Ye Maaya Chesave. The songs from the movie were written by a famous musician from India whose name is A.R. Rahman. This song from the movie is one of my favorites. The video and lyrics are family friendly! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tqx6BtVsEH8

What activity was the most fun this week?:

My favorite activity this week was traveling to Puducherry with friends from my study abroad program. I met all of them just a few weeks ago after arriving in India, so it was a great opportunity to explore a new city together and get to know each other a little better. 

What did I read this week?:

I have been working on reading a book written by a man named Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, commonly known as B.R. Ambedkar. Ambedkar is a very important person in Indian history, because he helped to write the Indian constitution.
