“First of all we want to thank you and everybody for the
great opportunity we got here while staying at the
school of Gokuldham of Nar. It is a great place in the
State of Gujarat with even greater people. Everybody
working or living on the campus is very friendly and
made us feel welcomed from the first day on. When we
arrived they let us take enough time to adjust to the
climate, different time zone and culture. All of the
teachers are very lovely people who enjoy talking and
working with you. After some time they will even invite
you to their homes or join you to visit different places or
go shopping with you. During the school lessons we
were able to lead a lot of classes by ourselves if we felt
comfortable enough. Also outside of school everybody
tries to make us feel as comfortable as possible and
especially Pravin went out of his way to supply us with everything we
needed. Sometimes we felt that it even was too much and we felt bad to ask
for certain things because we felt spoiled.

They were also trying to show us
as much of the surrounded area as possible and on the weekends they
arranged different car trips for us, so we would be able to see different
places. All in all Gokuldham is a great school with really lovely people and we
are really grateful and happy that this opportunity was given to us. We got a
great insight into the Indian culture and way of living. We also got to know a
bit about the Swaminarayan way of living, but only a little, since we are girls
so we didn’t get to interact with them so much.”
