How might physical geography affect the patterns of exploration and settlement of the various european groups coming to the new world?

well since the Europeans coming over the the new world weren't really used to rocky terrain like mountains etc. It would cause them to have to modify there building plans to were it would fit to the rocky terrain. And for the exploring situation it would cause longer and more dangerous quests.

so the story tells of someone named kaushik choudhuri, but he does not narrate the story, a girl named hema does. hema tells the story in a second person point of view because you (the reader) are supposed to be the boy named kaushik.

here's an excerpt i found: "i was ushered into the fitting room, your mother watching approvingly as i took off my coat and sweater and tried on the bra."
