| Introduction | I am originally from India (Gujarat and Kutch) but I never lived in India though I visited it several times. I mainly grew up in Madagascar and France, I studied in Madagascar, Reunion Island, the United States and France. I am currently teaching English at an engineering school in biotechnologies and at La Sorbonne in Paris. I hold a B.A. (Licence) in History and a post-graduate degree (DEA) in English and English World Studies from La Sorbonne University (Paris IV). I also hold a Master's degree (Maîtrise) in Hindi and South Asian Studies from INALCO-Paris. This blog, "My Indias", is mostly about anything related to me and to my relationships with the whole of South Asia and it is not restricted to the present-day state of India. "My Indias" is more emcompassing and comprises Iran, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, The Maldives, Mauritius, etc. AND, of course, India! Whenever I use the word "India" or "Indian" in this blog, it actually refers to the largest part of what is usually referred to as "South Asia". For many reasons, I cannot live in India and, as a result, I miss "my Indias" a lot. To contact me: mounirnassor@yahoo.co.in |
