Language and culture are the framework through which humans communicate and understand reality.
Hello, I'm Astha. My friends Vaidehi, Rohan, Janya, Megha and I have got this amazing opportunity to work together as a part of Eumind. We feel that it is our time now to make a difference in this world. The easiest way to make this possible is by interacting and having a friendly relationship with everyone around. |

A little about ourselves
ASTHA
Hi, I'm Astha, a 15 year old girl. I love painting, singing and reading. My ambition in life is to be a psychologist. I am currently the group leader of our team. Eumind is a platform for networking between schools in India and Europe. By doing these various internet based e-journal projects run by various schools, it would provide a lot of exposure to the outside world. It’s a fun way to learn and gain knowledge apart from the school books. It would help me in interacting and socializing with people within and outside the country. |
JANYA
Hi, my name is Janya. I'm 14 years old. My hobbies are travelling, photography, playing the piano and working on adobe photoshop. I love listening to music and reading books and I want to be a musician when I grow up. I want to be in Eumind as I'm sure that there are many interactive events that would teach us many new cultural things and bring out the best in us. VAIDEHI
The world has progressed and changed in many fields over the past. This change can be brought about in a graceful manner by being a part of it. Interacting and socializing with others also helps in bringing about change not only in the society but in various other fields. I feel, being a part of Eumind gives me an amazing opportunity to interact with various individuals living beyond my motherland would help me get new ideas about how to go about common problems and make this world a better place. And as for who I am, I am Vaidehi. I'm 14 years old. Reading and listening to music are a few of my hobbies. It is my ambition to become a psychiatrist when I grow up. MEGHA
My name is Megha. I'm a 14 year old girl. I like to paint, listen to music and read. My ambition when I grow up is to become a lawyer. The reason that I want to take part in Eumind is the fact that I'm fascinated with the world. Each and every part of the world has a story and an origin that I'm eager to know. I would like to start with Europe due to its interesting history. I also like the fact that I get to interact with Europeans of my age. I have an appreciation and love for Indian culture and a passion to share the same with my fellow peers in Europe. ROHAN
Hi I'm Rohan. I'm 14 years old. I play the guitar and the keyboard. I love playing any sport. My ambition is to become a musician or a neurosurgeon. I like listening to music and I play for the schools music band and cricket team. I want to be in Eumind as it increases our social interaction not only with people of different communities and cities but also with people of different countries. We become aware of the issues our countries face both collectively as well as individually and strive to stand up against it with co-operation. |
