028 Every 100 Kilometers in India with Pradeep Javedar

Introduction

Pradeep, my guest for Episode 022 "Every 100 Kilometers in India", is a trained medical doctor who teaches pharmacology in Mangalore, India by day and photographs for restaurants in his spare time. When I listened back to my interview with him, all I could think was how ignorant I sounded regarding the food, geography, and culture in India - and how patient he was with my many questions! But really, curiosity is the heart of this podcast - we can’t know about other cultures or bear witness to the lives of others without simply asking questions. Pradeep taught me something Indians say about their own country: “Every 100km, different food, different people, different culture.” I’m so thrilled today to share a little bit about the people, culture, and food that have shaped Pradeep.
