Vellore, is the place, where we (me, Pushkar, Ruchi, and Jyoti) are right now, thanks to the IIFM fieldwork. Contrary to our all expectations, the journey was nice and hospitality given by the Tamilnadu Forest department is excellent, the only sad thing t, i lost my jacket (the recent gift by my mother, a cool Levi’s Red Tab) in the train (I thought such kind of incident happen only in my state or neighboring states). The language, is a major problem for us, most of the people are not at all comfortable with English and we do not know even A,B,C .. of Tamil. So giving order in the restaurant, interacting with taxi drivers, talking to forest department officials, is quite a task. But we are enjoying our stay….
