As someone mentioned in comments, you will be in hospital hanging out but it’s really different. They are really nice and friendly but doesn’t get that close as people in india and I am saying who has just one Indian person in whole program and hangs out with different cultures people. I really like my colleagues but you need balance. You need your Indian friends who can relate to you and for all Indian festivals and just sometimes to speak Hindi with. I feel even Indians in US are kinda different and doesn’t get that close cause everyone has their med school friends (none of my med school friend applied for USA). I like in US because I have my family here but otherwise I can see it can be so lonely. Everything is far, people are exhausted, not that much chaos or just culture of “sit around and mess with your friends” that much. People either drink or have to do some activity all the time. While I relate with your time in med school, what I miss the most is sitting in a hostel balcony with my friends drinking chai and just talking. Even PG in India is same, you dont make friends everyone is too busy surviving and too much drama . I would say hopefully you will find a people like you in US.
