Fun Facts and Tips


 

 

I never really planned on going to India, at least not during my college career but once I heard about the Destination India program I knew that I had to do it.  During the trip we went on cultural and corporate visits that gave us an insight on India’s intricate history and traditions but also on India’s business practices.  Nine other Temple students joined me on the incredible journey along with two professors.  Seeing the Taj Mahal was incredible, the structure really is unlike any other historical monument I have ever seen.  India was unique when compared to the other European countries I had been to, and that is why I think it made such a big impression on me.
