World meet: Chandana Kumari Madha Shiva from Hyderabad in India! Chandana is a student in our graduate program whom we had the pleasure to meet in person during our May residency. She happily agreed to be part of our #postcardsfromlindsey series! See what she shared with you: - What was the hardest adjustment you had to make?
"Staying away from family and cold winter weather"
- Why did you choose LWC?
"Because of the program offered"
- Where is the most interesting place you have been and why?
"Key West Florida, it's a beautiful place and it has its own vibe"
- Share a favorite tradition from home and help us understand it by providing an explanation:
"Celebrating diwali with fireworks and lots of food. Diwali is one of my favorite festivals and on this day everyone in the family has every meal together. We have a family get together. We burn fireworks, decorate the house with lights, play family games and eat lots of sweets"
Chandana, we are delighted that you have chosen Lindsey Wilson College to further your education and wish you great success! Comments | Permalink Generations celebrating together
