- Society & Culture
Ronita + Sarah bring you the Not From Here Podcast, where they chat all things about living away from home, what it means to start from scratch, and just general and fun observations on modern India. They break down the things that confuse them, the things they love, and what really interests them from a point of view that is rarely heard. From arts, to culture, to food, to people. With thoughtful observations, in-depth research, and just fun conversations to make each other laugh, you’ll feel like your hanging out with your best friends.

Episode 2: Places to See When You're Here But Not from Here
We got to admit, the audio is not perfect on this episode. And most things we have said are probably factually incorrect. This might not be our best episode. But we try to focus on places we've loved to visit in India. Do we laugh a ton? Yep. Do we tell random travel stories? You betcha. Expect a terrible rundown of the history of Hampi (and why waking up too early for the sunset is not worth it), a sadhu that Sarah follows into the caves, Sarah's solo journey by public bus to near the Tibetan border and how she came to snack on snow peas and riding a tractor. Ronita gives another terrible and unofficial history of Kashmir (she tried) and how she found it and its complicated situation. We round out the episode going over our favorite places (Orccha! Goa! Coorg!) and where we want to go next (Odissa!)

Episode 1: Living Here but Not From Here
Sarah & Ronita wanted to chat about travel places, but it ended up being a conversation on where they live in India, when they first came and places to settle down and live.
