Interview

I interviewed a woman named Paramjeet. He was born in Punjab, India. She had a degree in Management from a college in India. Her parents wanted her to marry in a good family and for most people nowadays a Canadian based Indian is definitely the best choice. She was then married to Varinder, an Indian guy who was settled in Canada. Her marriage started her journey in Canada. She had to face many struggles to adapt to the new country and to make sure that her marriage won’t break like a piece of glass. After I interviewed her, I realized how brave she was, alone in a country where the only person she knows was her husband. I have always seen as a joyful person, she always stops to say “hello” when we happen to see each other on the street or the park. I realized that every person carries a story about their past or present. People are not always what we think of them. Sometimes only a good ear is needed to hear incredible stories from the people around us. Nowadays, there are many cases like her, where migrant women struggle to keep their marriage and career life balanced. Some succeed but there are also some women who do not. In any relationship communication is very important. This helps in solving or even preventing problems from escalating to nightmares.
