a cultural journey

Ms Jasmin has just left our school with a bit of sadness and nostalgia in her heart, wondering if we will meet again. I still remember the way she just arrived, the "dignified" dress of traditional Indian women can be recognized at a glance in the hot summer.
Since then, I have also included India in my ideal country, because in my eyes, India is a country that is gorgeous, solemn, and yet mysterious. Back to Outsourced, it's a beautiful movie. When Todd was dispatched to India for company reasons and showed up at the airport in Mumbai, India really flooded my eyes for the first time. Crowded people, dirty streets, cattle and sheep running around, and even people urinating on the side of the road, this does not seem to be what I like in the city.
However, the connotation of a country and a city is not reflected in its appearance. I saw the friendliness, purity and kindness of Indians, and it was comforting when Todd fit into their world and was able to leave with a lingering presence.
It seems like a movie about how Americans do business. Although it is not a new trick to use this part of labor resources to place overseas. But if you think of this movie as a journey, you will get more new knowledge. A person's life has a journey, flying from one place to another, a new city, or a new land, and then we all continue to draw memories from the journey, and then fly to the next destination with the memories. . Todd has been cared for by the locals in India and has a precious love.
Plus, the collision of Eastern and Western cultures involved in this film happened to stitch my heart together. I recently had a cultural rift with the landlord, because he believes in Christ and I believe in Buddhism. However, I know that like Todd, I should do as the locals do. I still feel that we all need to respect each other and understand each other's backgrounds.
I hope that one day I can really set foot on the land of India, I hope that one day I can see Ms Jasmin again.
