第一次見到她是在交誼廳,聽她與友人七嘴八舌地在講他們剛剛出去買東西遇到的事,我回頭一看,這不是印度人嗎? 怎麼會對牛在路上大便感到驚奇? 她是Aparajita,在加拿大出生長大的印度裔女孩,說著一口西方口音的英文以及印度話。會認識她也是因為一起做志工的關係,但她比我早抵達兩個多禮拜,所以我們也沒到有很深的交集。 聰明、活潑是她留給我的印象。
他在我的筆記本上寫到
India is my first home. I was born here and my family, culture and roots are belong here!
India is INSANE! There is no other word for it. The number of people , cows, transport, places, religions, languages, cultures, festivals and clothes. It's MADNESS! If you can survive this ridiculous country, you can survive ANYTHING. Also, you will have the craziest time of your life!
-Aparajita!
