The student got to live with local families in different villages of Gujarat, the western state of India. And it was a life-changing experience for these students.
Tatiana, who was on her first trip to India, believes that she has brought some positivity from India.
She says, "Being in a rural community was so different to my own life and seeing how they overcome so many challenges of life I probably never had to deal with before. Taking all of their positivity in the way they approach a daily task, I am hoping to bring some of that into my life."
Some families hosted the touring students at their homes. That is how they got a chance to know India and Indians intimately.
"From day one everyone embraced the fact that we were never going to have knife and fork for the next 14 days. We were just eating with our fingers the whole time. I loved it."
