[Asia] Ep84 South Indian & Private School w/ Daphne

Chai with Ping | Immigrants | Cross-Cultures

Daphne came from Tamil Nadu, India and she is doing her MBA degree in Denver. We discussed her 1-12 educational experience growing up and how different was it from other kids. Since I'm so distracted so we also talked about some cultural aspects including religions, bindi, and foods.
