Adventure! SP Jain Jaguars

What a way to end the school year! On April 8, Dubai Jags went to Aquaventure Waterpark at Atlantis, a hotel resort located at the apex of the Palm Jumeirah in the United Arab Emirates. It was the first resort to be built on the island and is themed on the myth of Atlantis but includes distinct Arabian elements.

Nobody back home in Tajikistan can believe where I am now -- getting ready to take on a summer internship in Singapore. And it's all because I took a big leap of faith eight short months ago, coming to S P Jain to study business.

Being a vegetarian can be an interesting journey, especially when you travel to places like Singapore and Sydney where you need literally hunt for vegetarian food. When I was in Singapore, it was really tough for me to find good places to eat off campus, and I am sure people around me might have felt the same. (The canteen on the Singapore campus has healthy and inexpensive veg meals, cooked Indian style, and you can also get veg offerings at the snack bar.)

Where do senior diplomats go when they visit Australia? Why, to S P Jain, of course. So when India's Union Finance Minister made his first-ever trip Down Under in late March, his first speaking engagement was to Jaguars at S P Jain's Sydney campus.

Sand, sun and food -- what's not to like? Especially when you're exploring another culture at the same time. Which is why Dubai Jags headed to Kite Beach for the Dubai Food Festival March 11, on a trip organized by the Learning Team.

You want to talk about all the impromptu trips you’ve done? Try travelling across the world, all alone, having sat on the plane for the first time in your life. The thoughts of having never left the country throughout his life, the prospect of meeting people from other nationalities apart from his own countrymen was terrifying and shook every bone in the body. Yet, this man took that step ahead, knowing not what was ahead, hoping to forget the bad memories of the past and collecting souvenirs of the great past. An engineering student was about to pursue a business degree at S P Jain School of Global management, of which he knew nothing.

Hello, everyone -- or as we say in Finnish: Hei kaikille! I am so excited to meet you all and get to know three different countries with you. One of my interests is to learn new languages and experience different cultures and customs. I speak Finnish, Italian, English, Swedish and I can handle daily conversations in Mandarin Chinese. I am also trying to study Japanese in my free-time.

I love experimenting with new things and I'm always up for a challenge. I have represented my state at table tennis. I've always believed that practical experience is better than theory and hence, I have already started and am running my own business venture.

Festivals have a timeline, memories don’t. Festivals have always been a reason for celebrations and happiness. Moments of joyous occasions giving way to nostalgic memories to be revered and enjoyed forever. I am glad to have been given an opportunity of travelling to four different cities to study across different parts of the world and to have lived the sort of life one see’s only in movies and theatres through S P Jain School of Global Management. The naïve way of looking at festivals is to see them as a ritual performed year after year for the sake of it, and the other way would be to look at them as a way to rekindle old memories and create fresh ones.
