Sakshi
Sakshi Gupta, who simply goes by Sakshi, is an Indian-born Japanese Government (Monbukagakusho: MEXT) Scholar pursuing an undergraduate degree in Community and Regional Policy Studies (CRPS) major at the College of Policy Science of Ritsumeikan University. Her studies revolve around International Affairs, Policy formulations and Sustainability. Living in Ibaraki, when she is not studying in the university, she spends her time cooking, chilling out with her small group of friends or hanging around in quiet places in nature. Although, most of the times, she’s just daydreaming trying to figure out what to do next ;) One thing about Japan that never ceases to amuse her: it’s the interplay with modernity and traditions.
