month Reciprocal Exchange Programme to

Germany. Arnav was

hosted by a German

student, Mast. Felix

Amar Honeckar from

Stuttgart. Felix and

his family played the

perfect hosts from

providing Indian food, to taking him sight

seeing to Paris and Brussels and even

teaching him German.

His German host, Felix will be hosted by

The 3rd batch of

American stu-

us to learn Hin-

to India under the NSLI – Y programme

( National Security Language Initiative for

Youth ) and will be with us for 6 weeks.

Special Hindi classes have been arranged

for them along with day trips to places near

Indore. To be able to truly immerse them-

selves in Indian culture, they are being

hosted by Shishyans in their homes.

Akshat Vora, Omisha Purohit, and Tanya

Rajani are in Malaga, Spain for an Intercul-

tural Summer Camp. This camp involves

staying and interacting with students from

see the art and culture

of Budapest. The home

stay which followed

gave them a firsthand

experience of Hungarian culture and family

life.
