Hi, explorers! My name is Renee, and I am so excited to take you along on my journey to India! I will be living in Bengaluru, a big city in southern India, while working on a Fulbright research project about health and how we can help communities stay healthy.
One of my favorite things about traveling is FOOD! Everywhere I go, I try to find a local dish I love and add the recipe to my recipe book. It is basically my tastiest souvenir. When I get home, I can cook it again and remember the trip through all the flavors, smells, and memories. My recipe book has traveled quite a bit, and I have a feeling India is going to give it some very delicious new pages!
Of course, I promise I will do more than eat my way through India. Together, we will explore colorful traditions, meet new people, discover how people get around, learn about everyday life, and probably encounter a few things that make me say, "Wait...what is THAT?"
Most importantly, I want you to be part of the adventure. Ask me questions, tell me what you want to see, and stay curious with me. I will be your eyes, ears, and very enthusiastic taste tester in India. I can't wait to see what we discover together!
