“And it’s one of the main reasons that I signed up for this fellowship. I will be learning different things each day being in a completely unfamiliar place and among unfamiliar faces which I find very thrilling and also I will be sharing my learnings with students of Shree Yanjer Gumba Basic School and for me, an immense joy lies in witnessing someone learning and gathering knowledge because I strongly believe that there is great power in knowledge.” – Melina
