Celebrities?
Being white makes everyone on the team a very out of place minority in Kolkata, particularly in the neighborhood we live in. Different people react to us in different ways. Most adults just stare at us in silence as we walk by. I love the children though. They are always excited to see us. I feel like we are celebrities whenever children see us. They usually come running up to us as soon as they see us, shake our hands with great excitement, and practice saying "Hello, how are you?" I've had kids wave and yell at me from their balcony too. It may not seem so great in a couple more months, but for now, I really enjoy it.
