University of Zurich, Switzerland

It was a real pleasure having you as our local counterpart in organizing our Research Training Programme “Representations of India: Negotiating Identities in Translocal Spaces” which focused on Tourism in the Himalayans this year. Thank you for organizing the travel and accommodation for the students of the Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology, University of Zurich – but even more for sharing all your extremely helpful insights and many years of experiences, which ultimately facilitated a smooth field entry to all our students. Apart from assisting our students to get their research project started we are particularly grateful for the extremely helpful training provided by you on “Tourism in India” during our workshop in Shimla in August 2011.

We would like to continue cooperation for further exchange programmes and similar research projects.

With best regards,

Dr. Stefanie
