One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I spent a summer as a research assistant in Delhi, India. I took an intensive Hindi course and learnt a year's worth of Hindi in my first month. The anthropological research centered around the perceptions of hygiene and cleanliness amongst the Dalit ("Untouchables") of Delhi who worked as manual scavengers of the city.
